It's raining it's pouring... the old man is snoring

I have always loved this quote and when I saw today's 365 Cards Day 218 challenge, and the Paper Maniac Challenge, I knew just the paper I was going to use.

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass,
It's about learning how to dance in the rain

First of all, I bought this pack of neutral cards at Michael's and there is this one yellowy colour I just haaaaated to look at - bleak! But then again there is this beautiful paper pack I have by K&Company called Sea Glass (I also have the album - beautiful!) and this one umbrella paper has always turned me off. So here we are on a yucky rainy day using a yucky coloured card from my neutral value pack and the cute but "neeyah, not today" paper from a beautiful paper stack to make a cute card with an equally challenging ribbon colour that just happens to match. I am going with the flow of the weather, and I'm not in my comfort zone at all - sooo, instead of printing my quote I wrote it by hand! So ta daahhh!!
