Sunshine Wishes on a Rainy Day

When life gets tough for whatever reason it's always nice to receive something bright and cheerful in the post. Today we spend so much time on social media it is easy to forget that taking the time to make a card for a friend who is struggling has so much more impact to brighten their day than a message on the internet.

Hence my card today, which I've sent recently to a friend in the that position.  I hope it has put a smile on her face and helped her face the challenges in her life a little stronger today.

You will love the Sunshine Wishes dies and although I haven't used them here there is a coordinating stamp set called Sunshine Sayings.

Back to School for Moving Along with the Times

Time for Team A over at Moving Along with the Times to share their next challenge with you all. This month the theme was chosen by Amy.  We'd love to see your creations for Back to School.

I've made my DT card using Stampin' Up!  Labelling Alphabet set and the ever popular owl punch. He's so adorable and very cute just like all the new kids starting back to school soon.

He's standing on a pile of books created with the new Classic Label punch and the 1/2 " circle punch. His page of paper is from the Floral Boutique Designer Series paper and I cut the shape of it using the Project Life Cards and Labels dies.   A sweet little apple for the teacher is from Thoughtful Branches which is now available to purchase, but only during  August while stocks last.

When I first saw the theme of the challenge I was stumped, but the trusty owl has come up with goods.  You can make so many characters with this little chap from teachers to nurses to tulips to ghosts and many more.  If he's not part of your craft supplies he's really a timeless addition to consider.

Please do join our challenge and check out all the other DT cards here.

Happy school day memories to you all.
