Making the Day Brighter......FMS442






Honest I truly thought the worst of this pandemic would be behind us as we got into summer but it has certainly proved to be relentless.  New York has made great strides but we are still sticking close to home and immediate family.  So we look for ways to make our days brighter - like making a delightful purple card with these sweet parasols!  Lighthearted posts on Facebook are always a treat so I will share one with you I just saw yesterday.  You may have seen it already but it will probably still make you smile.......as crafters we can so relate......

    Man oh man … if I didn't know better, I'd swear we've been crafting together again - you'll understand this better tomorrow.
    I didn't have near the cuteness of these darling parasols, however - this must be new? They are so feminine and pretty in shades of purple!
    10!

    Linda, I love everything about this card, it's so bright, cheery and whimsical. And purple seems to be the best color ever for this set. Love, Love, Love.

    So beautiful, Linda! Because of my feelings toward glitter, I received that meme over 20 times this week. It still makes me laugh every time I see it. ♥
