this is from one of the cricut sets I own . . . something about this sun is just so sweet, happy, and fun that I love making it over and over.

given how little I like hot weather, this design challenge would have been hard for me, but luckily, I have this sun to keep me smiling away!
this card design is in response to a weekend-long challenge for national scrapbooking day where volunteer cardmakers (like moi) make super-duper cards for Operation Write Home. for this card, i was challenged to make a card with a beachy, summertime theme:
