JULY 11TH ~~ CHEER UP THE LONELY DAY!

My job has become nuts with our fiscal year end, so I have not had much time to craft. I am so thankful for groups like Calendar Girls to give me a reason and excuse to work on a card. I created this card for a friend who needed some encouragement. I used a red cardstock paper base and added a strip of light blue and coordinating ribbon. I used the Cricut to cut out a sun using Simply Charmed cartridge. I love the little sunglasses. I embellished the lenses with some purple Stickles and drew a cute smile.

I hope this will add some sweet sunshine to your day! :)

Miriam: http://miriamscreations.blogspot.com/ is you're next stop!

Have fun and a great July! ~ Angie
