What's The Alternative

The challenge at Incy Wincy this week is to make a card to celebrate one of the Bizarre, Wacky or Unique Holiday taken from the Funny Holiday site

I've used this weeks Friday Sketch

I've chosen Look On The Bright Side Day which is celebrated on 21 December

Look on the Bright Side Day

When : Always December 21

Look on the Bright Side Day is today. We hope you see the light. Literally looking on the bright side may be a bit difficult today. It is winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. And, December days tend to be cloudy. However, we're going to be optimistic, and fully expect you to succeed.

Look on the Bright Side Day is a day to be optimistic. The term itself is an optimistic one. It calls upon us to look for something positive, out of an otherwise bad or sad situation. Often, a bad experience has positive lessons to be learned.  

If you have a bad day yesterday, look on the bright side.... today is another day, and an optimistic one at that!

I've used the Bugaboo Stella - One More Birthday image and the sentiment from Stella - Birthday Alternative. I've coloured her with Promarkers and cut out with Nesties. The backing papers are by Stampin Up and the candles are a Marianne Design die. I've added yellow Stickles to all the candles to finish. I'm also entering this into the Bugaboo Anything Goes challenge

Sunday Sketch & Stamp

Carole has done a this great sketch for this weeks Sunday Sketch & Stamp

The sponsor is Bugaboo so I've used their Knobbly Knees Sorry Girl. Not a lot of colouring to do on this one but what there is is done with Flexmarkers. The paper is by Pink Petticoat and was a free pad with Quick Cards magazine ages ago.

I'm also entering this into the Crafty Cardmakers challenge which is Belated Birthdays
