You are my sunshine!

Hi stampers!  In case you have forgotten, SU is releasing some single stamps every now and then and out of this last batch THIS one is my fave!

My maternal grandparents (and mom still does) used to sing this to me and each other all the time so it has great sentimental meaning to me!  So, when I saw it, I had to have it!!!  I've got another idea half in my head and half already on paper for this one but for now you'll have to settle for my first attempt with this stamp!
Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps: Sunshine (single stamp)
Paper:  Whisper white, crumb cake, daffodil delight, pool party, island indigo, brights DSP stack
Ink:  Daffodil delight, island indigo
Accessories:  SAB ribbon & button pack, scallop squares duo die

I love the sunburst technique (is that what it's called...that's what I call it anyway, ha) and thought it would be perfect with this stamp of course!  I sponged the edges of the rays.  I like to do that and think it makes all the difference when making a card with this technique!  It really sets it off!

If you want this stamp you only have until March 31st to get it though (and the other singles) so don't delay or you might miss it!!!

I think I'll send this one to my mom!  She'll love the image itself of course but she'll love the blues too!

Happy stamping!
