No rain...no rainbows!

I still do not know who sent me the awesome Sesame Street Seasons Cricut cartridge, but I used it last night to make this card! I wanted to enter the challenge over at Flaunt it Fridays, but I do not own the Give a Hoot cartridge that the little bear inside the garbage can cut is on. They said if we didn't have that particular cartridge that we could use another cartridge with a similar cut. Well...when I was looking through the handbook of the Sesame Street Seasons cartridge I saw the Oscar the Grouch inside the garbage can holding an umbrella and just a couple pages before that I saw a rainbow cut. I knew I had an awesome kids quote stamp by Inkadinkado that would go perfect with these cuts so this is what I came up with!




Oscar the Grouch was cut at 4 1/2" and the rainbow was cut at 2 3/4"


So thank you once again to the Fairy Godmother that sent this cartridge my way!  I am entering this card for Challenge #8 at Flaunt it Fridays.  I cannot tell you how much fun I am having creating for these challenges.  When I can't sleep (which is often) this is what I have been doing with my time.  When the hubby is away on business trips, the scrapping and card making is a nice diversion.  This card also qualifies for the "What a Character" challenge over at Betty Bee's Buzz so I am entering it there too!

Hope your week is off to a great start!  For all of my cold state friends...stay warm!
