Happy Solar Eclipse Day 2024!

Playing along with the As You See It Challenge with a perfectly balanced sketch just perfect for today’s solar eclipse! 


I used Waltzingmouse Stamps “L’il Buddies” and a background from Hero Arts (and lots of shimmer spray)!

Here near Rochester, NY, we were excited to be in the path of totality…but this was our view …😑


Clouds as far as the eye could see. To make it worse, yesterday there was not a cloud in the sky!!!!

But we still got to experience the total darkness, the spring peepers (frogs) chirping/croaking/peeping like crazy, lots of laughs, and a few fireworks at 3:20 PM! 


Ah….maybe we’ll go to Florida in 20 years for the next one! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Lovely to read about your eclipse experiences and even better to have a themed card in our sketch challenge! Love that shimmery, starry background and your take on the sketch. Thanks for joining in with us at As You See It. :-0

What a great theme for your card on eclipse day! It's too bad your view of it was obscured by the clouds! I love the POV of the card and all the shimmer! Thanks for joining our gallery for our As You See It sketch challenge!
