Dia daoibh!
Now onto the actual card before anything else could interfere. To brighten up the classic Irish weather I went full rainbow. If the sky won’t cooperate I’ll sort it myself.
I kept it CAS (the card had already been through enough). The sentiment is from the Best Ever set from Simon Says Stamp from 2017 which is still earning its keep. I had a little play with die cuts and used a rainbow design from the Silhouette Design Store. I popped the cloud and rainbow up on foam pads for a bit of dimension. finished it off with a few sprinkled gems. Sparkle is essential. I also added Nuvo Drops White Blizzard around the edges of the cloud for extra detail... I was feeling brave again.
And just like that, the card was finished. A cheerful rainbow card created in between a catwalk moment, an upside down surprise, and a very late Amazon delivery. Crafting magic at its finest.

Beautiful card looking as though it was definitely designed that way lol. Cats-got to love them, my two cats stay in the front room on a night so battle stations before I go to bed-foil wrap and peg holder on chair, bag of knitting on laptop to deter sleeping on and walking stick along front as older cat(14 and fiesty with it )used to jump up and just throw everything on floor, now I find random stuff on the floor as if she goes -well that can go lol.

Carol, I am absolutely crying laughing here 😂 Your house sounds like a full-time cat obstacle course with optional midnight chaos mode. Foil wrap, peg holders, knitting decoys and a strategically placed walking stick… that’s not bedtime prep, that’s Home Alone: Feline Edition. And your older cat just casually redecorating by gravity… “Well that can go.” Honestly, cats don’t live in our houses. We live in their escape room. Mine clearly attended the same school of interior design… with a specialty in paw-print embellishments on freshly made cards. 🐾✨
Your card is so adorable. Love that happy little cloud and the awesome rainbow. Thanks for joining at Seize the Birthday.
Wendy, this is just darling! What a cute CAS design. I love those rainbow streams coming from the cloud. Thanks for sharing with A Cut Above's January Challenge.
You got it in one Wendy, she also bullies my Son and Daughters dogs-son has a greyhoundxcollie and if she dares to walk past her and look at her she gets a couple of slaps across the head -lesson learnt she now walks past(if she has to) looking the other way lol.

Great save and if you didn't confess, we would never know! Such a happy little cloud sending the rainbow down to earth to brighten the person celebrating their birthday! - sweet little gems too! Julia xx
This is such a cheery little card. Thanks for brightening up a very grey day and for the explanation of the mishaps. We all know those feelings and find it extremely reassuring that they happen to others too xx
I love you card and style. Brilliant card. So glad you shared over at MMM.

Such a cute rainbow card Wendy, glad it survived the struggles creating it lol! Thankyou for playing along at Seize the Birthday, Cathy x
I love so much about this rainbow. Mostly the journey you took to achieve this magnificence, but also the straight down of the rainbow, beaming straight down to us like a good rainbow should.
I am also now envisioning your cat strutting her best fashion show "cat" walk while humming I'm Too Sexy for this card to herself...
And the smiley cloud make me...well...smiley!
