I decided to tone the orange down to a dark yellow for the sun and the clouds are made from sticky back canvas to add a touch of texture too :)
I used Paper Smooches stamp sets called 'Sunny Side Up' and 'Wake Up' and the scalloped top was cut using a Tim Holtz on the edge die called scallops...surprisingly!!
It was so good to have a morning playing with my PS stamps again, it's been a while....... now the sun is trying to break through the cloud that has engulfed the house all morning I best get walking that mutt!
Hope you like it and thanks for looking X
Fab card Jenny :) I know what you mean about the inspiration photo I just had to join in.
