You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey….I’ve sang this son to my kids for years. My son’s 8 now and every once and while he’ll ask me to sing this song to him…sniff, sniff.
My love for this song inspired me to make a You are my Sunshine Card for the challenge this week at Fantabulous Cricut . We want to see your Cricut project that contains a sun. Yep- that’s it, any sort of sun is all you’ll need to play along with us.

You are my Sunshine Card
I embossed the card base with dots, cut the sun from the Cricut Graphically Speaking cartridge (yes- I had to blow the dust off that cart!) added some cute yellow buttons and stamped a sentiment on the front.
You’ll never know dear how much I love you so please don’t take your sunshine away….

Oh my gosh…my mom sang this to me when I was young and I sang it to my children too!
I love your card, its so bright and cheery…the white base really sets off the sunshine yellow. You did such a wonderful job on making it. Kathie
This sun with the button center is so fun and turned out great.
