You Are My Sunshine


CAS-ual Fridays has a great challenge this week!  They challenged us to create a card or project based on a song.  You can see all of the details and participate if you click HERE or on the graphic above. Being a child of the 80's - I have many, many songs' lyrics memorized.  You know - useless information stored in my brain.  But the one song that I used for my creation wasn't an 80's tune at all.  It's a lullaby I have been singing to my son since he was born.  We've added beats and kisses at special times in the song as he has grown up and it's a nighttime favorite of ours:

Sunshine die, Fresh Cut Grass die (MFT), Smitty's abc's (Lawn Fawn), Little Bitty Bird, Canvas Impression Plate (PTI)

For this card, I stamped everything first and then ran it through my Big Shot to get the impression on the white panel.  After die-cutting the sun, I ran it through my Xyron and dipped it in some prisma glitter.  I added a few gemstones to the grass and the tree to give a little sparkle to this Spring card. 

If you've been around here awhile, you know that I'm a member of a wonderful group of ladies known as the Paper Dolls.  We try to challenge each other each month just to keep together and support one another.  This month's challenge is "Spring Bling."  I'll post this card over on our blog to share.  You can see our blog and enter in Renee and Suzanne's contest if you click HERE.  (psssst...there's a prize!)

I have a couple of other songs and ideas strumming around in my head, so hopefully, I'll be back soon.  Thanks for visiting My Happy Place!
