The AAA magazine was the inspiration for this card. The cover of the magazine had a cute sun cut out in this fashion. I thought it was a perfect image for Summer Time, which was the theme for SUO Challenge 99. Then it just fell into place with our color combo theme of cherry cobbler, pumpkin pie and daffodil delight. I'm a little bit challenged when it comes to using the Xacto knife. This was good practice.
I like this card so much, I'm using it as one of our projects in the July 2014 classes.
Thanks for looking. Susie

I love it when we get inspiration from the most unexpected places! This sun is so cute, and the card just radiates light and warmth. The flowers look great against that background!

I agree with the others- this is so cool (or should I say "hot" since it is the sun- lol!! ) Love the combination of the cut-out sun with the colors- thanks so much for sharing with us at SUO Challenges :-)
