No Snow!





Happy Wednesday everyone! Hope the beginning of your week has been swell so far. I don't have any icky animal stories for ya today, lol! But we are having some beautiful weather, yesterday it was in the 70's and all of windows are wide open :) I have also restocked my fridge with 4 cases of Cherry Coke (my main addicition after stamps and supplies, hee hee) and I am ready to finish up my many projects this week!!


Don't forget to check out Katharina's blog (of Whiff of Joy) to see how you can become the next Guest Designer! And Bev, my fellow DT member for Whiff of Joy has her yummy blog candy up on her blog (until the 22nd) so go enter for that too! And the wonderful Elisabeth Bell has candy up for grabs on her blog too! They all have sneak peeks of some new stamps to come--beautiful!! Lots of low-fat candy for ya too :)


Onto my card for today. Ya know how sometimes you just get stuck in a certain "stamp" mood---well right now I'm obssessed with my Magnolia stamps. I just love 'em and they're so much fun to use and put in "scenes". I have a bunch of these scene cards to share with you over the next couple of weeks--I am on a stamping roll right now, lol!!


This background stamp came from The Stamping Place again---they have so many cute ones (and yes I bought most of them, oh my). I pulled out my favorite wintertime dp from Memory Box called "Frost"--I love the soft colors and I based the card colors on this one particular pattern. This is Tilda with Sled (Diana does not carry this stamp, but maybe if we all beg her she can get it in if you really like it...:)) BTW, Diana informed us that her webshop Magnolia-licious will be open for business next week---yippee!!! You can still contact her at magnolia.us@shaw.ca for ordering info of these adorable Magnolia stamps.


After coloring both images with my Copics, I added liquid applique and diamond stickles to the the snow drifts for dimension and sparkle. I layered snowflakes in the corner and added white glitter dots to the center. The sentiment is from PTI's "Holiday Wishes" set--a must have for the holidays, lovee it! Since A Spoonful of Sugar's challenge this week is to make a Christmas card--I think this works, right!


Hope ya like it! I'll be back tomorrow with some "animals" for ya (the cute & cuddly kind tho)!
