Sunshine For My Soul


Today's card features a floral image from Verve's new Dream Big and a sentiment from Happy Hello. The flower is done in three layers for added dimension. Papers are Thrift Shop by October Afternoon.

Short and sweet for me today. My oldest and five of his buddies celebrated his tenth birthday yesterday with laser tag and a {no}sleepover. We'll be recovering all day!

Have a great day!
