You Are My Sunshine - Magnolia-Licious and Wee Stamps Challenge - Weather

It's week 2 of our challenge at Magnolia-Licious! so it's my turn to share a card!
Remember we want to see your cards with something to do with weather on them and so I went with the song "You are My Sunshine" and used it as my sentiment.
I used an older Tilda, #211 Explore Tilda from the Sweet Rainbow Collection as I hadn't used her in a while but there are both sunny and rainy images in Diana's store that would work for this challenge.
If you are struggling with the theme then just Google "Weather phrases" and tons will pop up that will surely help you find the perfect starting point for a fun card to share with us.
The wonderful papers and die cuts from the Sunshowers collection were perfect for this card.

I popped up Tilda's head and arm and added a little Diamond Glaze to her magnifying glass, she certainly looks like she is having fun in the sun here doesn't she?
