Hi Everyone
Well I am starting to wean myself off the Christmas cards (you will be pleased to hear) .. .. but not the sparkle!! LOL!!
Here is a little creation I have put together today that I thought would be nice to share.
This used:
Papers: All DCWV "Latte Stack"
Nestabilities: Labels Two
Sizzix: "656640" Tattered Florals
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder: Swiss Dots
Sizzix: "656640" Tattered Florals
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder: Swiss Dots
Martha Stewart Punch: Valentine Lace
X-Cut Punch: Butterfly
Woodware Punch: Circle
Glamour Dust
Wire and self adhesive pearls
Wire and self adhesive pearls
So there we go on the creation front.
Lots of snow here in my neck of the woods today .. .. .. it has been snowing pretty much all day.
It stopped for about an hour and is just starting again!!! But now it is those big fluffy flakes that seem to take a lifetime to actually land. They are floating and swirling about everywhere before settling.
Beautiful when you are inside but not when you are outside or driving about .. .. .. a little girl has not long passed my craft room window and she reminded me of myself as a child. She was walking along with her head tipped back and her tongue sticking out catching the snowflakes. Bless.
Have a good evening and take it steady if you are out and about in the elements.
Love

Smashing card Jules, so nice to get back to 'normal' cards isn't it? Love the flower and the little pearls you have added to the butterfly, gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteLots of snow here too. I'm sure it's going colder this afternoon, I'm frozen to death, or could it be that I had a bowl of ice-cream after lunch today! LOL
Hi Jules this is so very lovely, the colours and the central images look perfect, I love it. We haven't had much snow hear mainly frozen pavements and roads especially around my area. It seems to be getting colder by the day. Take care.
