SNOW. The huge storm affecting most of the US is all anyone can talk about. The grocery checkouts are thronged with people buying those foods/items to sustain us should there be power outages.
It gets really crazy here in the south.
These birds are used to all the commotion. Just two friends hanging out.
I'm still creating with some new-to-me winter supplies. These birdies and their winter accessory dies (SSS) could not be cuter. I'm glad to feature them today! A bit of patterned paper and a sweet sentiment and it's ready to go!
Similarly, I was ready to go and you know how I was dreaming of snow? We found a great deal and took an unexpected 8 day get-away to Lake Tahoe! It's a truly beautiful place! We don't ski but enjoyed a bit of hiking, the mountains and the lake, and yes, LOTS of snow! And so I wrap up with the theme for today.
I'm entering these challenges:
NBUS - using new stuff, mine are the dies
Double D Challenge - Friends
The Paper Players - CAS Signs of Winter
Color Hues Blue and White
Hope you're staying safe and well, and grateful for your good friends! I am all set to snuggle in at home and craft! See you soon.
Be yourself
Have delight in your craft
Make something beautiful!

ReplyDeleteHi Cindy - Happy New Year to you. Storms are never fun and even though we are in summer, we've had terrible storms this week too and a number of people have been killed. In happier news, your card is an absolute sweetheart! I love that you've paper pieced some of the bird's clothing and that it matches in with the DSP. Lovely sentiment too. Thanks for sharing with us again at The Paper Players. :-)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these birds!! Your card is so adorable with the birds and your beautiful patterned paper. And what a fabulous vacation spot! :) Great way to start the new year!
ReplyDeleteOh Cindy, your card is just precious and beautiful! Love those little birdies! Here in Ohio even the birds are stocking up for the upcoming storm lol. I've been to Lake Tahoe .. a GORGEOUS place for sure!!

This couldn't be any cuter or more beautiful! Love the design, the cute birds with their winter gear and pretty papers.
ReplyDeleteGosh, Cindy, your winter birds are the cutest! I have the birds and bought the winter accessories, too, but set them aside for Christmas. Didn't even think simply for winter, sheesh. LOVE how you used the paper so beautifully for their hats as well as the background, and what perfect sentiments! What a fabulous pic of you at Lake Tahoe! We've been through many times on our road trips, stopped, but never stayed. I imagine it was wonderful 'cause it sure is gorgeous! I'm so glad you had this amazing getaway. Thank you for sharing your beautiful picture here, and for sharing your darling card with us at Double D!
ReplyDeleteYour little birdies are dressed perfectly for winter Cindi - and I love that sweet sentiment too. Lake Tahoe sounds wonderful - I too am off to escape the snow next week! Thanks for sharing with us over at The Paper Players this week!
