Sun Fun Card...I Have Had Enough of Winter

Second post for today...Hoping that everyone is enjoying their Valentine's Day.

Made a card for two challenges...Scrappy Moms Stamps (Use the Cricut Cartridge Simply Charmed) and Fantabulous Cricut (Make a project featuring your favorite seasonal weather).

It's a gate-fold card and as you can tell, I love the summer! I have had enough of winter....(lol)

Finished card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:
Cardstock: White, Orange, Red, Blue, Two Shades of Yellow, Tan and Patterned Paper
Cricut Cartridge Simply Charmed Sun page 50 (Base, Base Layer 1), Sand page 51 (Base, Base Layer 2, Base Layer 3)
Cricut Design Studio (Just to lay it out on the mat)
"S" "u" "n" "F" "u" "n" Sticker Letters
Mounting Tape

It was actually a very nice day today, until the wind started picking up...however, I'll take it over the snow anytime.

It's been great being able to make something again after last week. Although, it's only a matter of time before my poor Expression is completely dead...It has spit paper back at me more often now and sometimes turns off in the middle of cutting...and sometimes it doesn't turn on at all. Guess the poor baby is exhausted from all it's use...I'll keep using it until I can't anymore...most of the paper has been scraps, so if it doesn't cut or makes a mistake, at least it hasn't been expensive paper (although I hate throwing out any paper).

Take time for yourself...create...leave me a message...(I read them all)...still trying to get my 50 followers...thanks......................imagine what you could do
