Singing in the Sunshine

After 4 days of rain, the sun is out and I feel like singing.  I try hard to be thankful for each day regardless of the weather but I do feel better in the sunshine. And the birds sing more too!
I combined two digitals for this card.  The bird is by Heartsong and the sentiment is by Doodle Pantry . The clouds are made by sponging around a scallop cut.  Saw the technique at OWH .

The DP came in a pack of CS by DCWV  called Nana's Nursery Baby Boy.  They are so cute but I hardly ever make baby cards.  This sheet with the birds seemed to work for this card.

Just another reminder about the huge Memorial Weekend Bloghop the OWH is putting on.  More details tomorrow.

    What a sweet card. I love that little birdie. That scripture goes so well with him. I woke up to birds singing the other day and thought what a great day to sing to God, just listen to the birds already starting in. Thanks for sharing with the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge. I hope you have a blessed day.
