Clouds

Towards the end of last week we had some strange weather - probably as a result of Cyclone Yasi - down here in little old Tassie! Part of it was that it rained hard for part of each day for a few days.  One of those days DH and I were sitting down to lunch and I noticed this strange cloud formation in the sky - it looked as if there was a mini hurricane in the clouds! So I took a photo of it!  UFO's do you think?


It was moving pretty quickly .

And was driven by some pretty high winds by the look of it - it moved out of view fairly quickly.


Anyway, to cards:  I made this for a friend who has just been on a surfing holiday to Papua New Guinea - we missed his actual birthday, but will celebrate it with him anyway!  I followed the Annabelle Stamp Challenge #34 layout for February and the colours for this week!  I used scraps and a stamped image and sentiment from I Brake for Stamps - Humours Seniors.  Oh, and Annabelle's sprinkles.
