A sunny card for winter!

I know the weather for November has been pretty good for us in the South East of England, but today it has decided to turn very wintery!  I hate winter!  So, I have made a summery card using the sweet digis from Tiffany Doodles...



I used this fun Pinwheel digi that I just printed off three times to create this card.  I matched it up with the lovely fresh My Minds Eye Alphabet Soup papers (from Quixotic Paperie here) and that fab My Favorite Things sentiment from the Great Outdoors set.


 
Fingers crossed that the weather won't get any worse and certainly NOT snow before Xmas like it did last year!  I know it sounds a bit bah humbug but it's only pretty for the first few hours, but we can't get out of our drive as we live on a slope, lol!  Anyway, hope you all have a fab weekend!
