Blue skies are comin'

 Happy Friday!!!  It's time for a new challenge from the Cut It Up Challenge Blog.  This week, the challenge is: Hello, Sunshine!

Here is my card for your inspiration:


I decided to create an encouragement card that I can have on hand to send to someone who is going through a difficult time.  So, I have some dark clouds, a happy sun peeking out and some blue sky coming the recipient's way.
I started with a white card base and a bit of blue paper that was sitting on my desk.  Then I built the scene using cloud dies and some gray ink, some dimension and a cute little sun.  I finished everything off with some clear drops and some die cut hearts (that were also sitting on my desk waiting to be used).
Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you will hop over to the Cut It Up blog for the full details of the challenge and to see what the rest of the Design Team has created. 

Supplies:
Stamps: Verve "Blue Skies"; Your Next Stamp "Silly Faces 2"
Dies: MFT "Blueprints 13" circle and pinked circles and "Tag Builder Blueprints 5" little hearts; Lawn Fawn "Fluffy Cloud Borders"

Challenges:
Sweet Stamping--no patterned paper
A Gem of a Challenge--anything goes
Snippet's Playground #457--anything goes with snippets (besides the blue paper and the pink hearts already sitting on my desk, all the clouds and the sun pieces were die cut from scraps)
Creative Fingers #258--anything goes
