Welcome Everyone;

I for one have certainly have had the birds chirping away first thing at daybreak.  I also image that those who have chickens/hens & roosters in their yards and on farms most certainly get the Rise and Shine call at daybreak.

Well, today’s card  is having some fun, I should say the animals are being funny.  The animals in this adorable stamp called Funny Farm from High Hopes Stamps are certainly up to some high jinks and the rooster on top is belting out his “Rise & Shine” greeting.
