Gray skies

are just clouds passing over.  Blue skies ahead.  (attributed to Duke Ellington)

light and dark gray Bazzill cardstocks, unknown white cardstock

Stampers Anonymous: #38 Bricked stencil, CMS241 Ledger Script

Ranger:  Snow Cap pigment ink; distress inks (whatever was on the yellow, orange, red and brown foam pads)

Sizzix:  Umbrella Man

I love the random appearance of the brick wall as it fades across the card front.  It's a perfect setting for the Umbrella Man. 

This card is for a friend's high school chum who recently suffered a stroke.  I thought the message (above) was fitting and hope that the recipient soon sees sunnier days.
