♫ ♪ ♫ Good Morning! Good Morning! It's a happy day today! ♪ ♫ ♪

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope that you are all well. I know that you love to hear my daily weather report... (yeah right! lol). So I just have to say that it is overcast again today with likeliness of more T-storms later. Poured yesterday. rain tomorrow. Things look up for the weekend. Today before Orla went outside to play before it rained, I applied a healthy coat of bug spray. No sunblock needed here this summer! But this is fantastic weather for mosquitos. Some of them are so big I think they may be able to carry Maeve off to their nest...or wherever they live. The news said last night that this weekend we are expecting a whole big new crop to hatch. Yay....we are so looking forward to that! ICK! I have the creepy crawlies just thinking about them! Keep in mind that we live surrounded by lots of trees and wetlands. Just where those buggers love to live too. BLECH! I must look like a Thanksgiving feast to them! Don't you just love all the creepy critter stories that I share with you? LOL! By the way, I never got a chance to get outside and get a pic of the tadpoles before Pat comitted a mass homocide out there with Pool Chemicals. But Orla scooped some dead ones out of the pool (GROSS!) and said that the tails were almost gone. I don't know if I will ever be able to go in that pool again.

This card was made for the Magnolia-licious July Sketch. This month's sketch is by fellow Magnolia-licious DT member, the lovely and talented Jacque. You can see the sketch and read the details here. You can also see the cards of the other DT members and links to many more fabulous cards that used this sketch already!!

All the stamps (except for the sentiment) are available at Magnolia-licious. I linked each stamp directly in the recipe above. The rocking chair is made by Alota...I love the Alota stamps that go perfectly with Magnolia stamps....it's like they are made to go together! Diana carries many of them, including this darling rocking chair. Look for more at Magnolia-licious by searching for "Alota" or looking in the Furniture/backgrounds section.

See you tomorrow for another 3 Clovers Thursday.

Have a Whimsical Wednesday!
