Happy Days

I made this card ages ago but it had a hot air balloon where the car is now. I coloured it with orange, yellow and green Copics and I really didn't like how it turned out. Even though orange is one of my favourite colours, it just looked too orange. I tried another balloon and even two balloons but it never looked right so I finally replaced it with a car.

I love how the sun from Up, Up and Away stamps on to the large circles from Side One of the Sunshine impression plate. Even though it wasn't perfectly centred it looks so cool! The circles even help the rays shine toward the car. ;) I stamped the little flower from Up, Up and Away in the window of the car to keep it looking from too boring. I did this partly because I didn't feel like cutting out the window which I've done in the past when using Enjoy the Ride. The flower, license plate and dotted line below the main sentiment are all in green to make this a citrus-coloured card. Three fun staples (which I flattened so they don't punch holes through the card when mailed) finish up the card.

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you're all having a great start to the week. :)
