Snow


Hello my crafty pals and thank you for your comments which I have so enjoyed reading. Hope you are all well. Welcome to my newest crafty pal, very glad to have you join in. I will try and squeak a quick card in between power cuts today as they are testing the service in our area, maybe they should have done it weeks ago before the cables came down in our snowfall – Oh! well. Regardless of the inconvenience and the fact we seem to be totally unable to cope with it, I do like a bit of snow, but only when I think everyone is safely tucked away. I actually think we have moved to a different continent without being informed as the amount of rain over the last few days has been horrendous and I do feel for anyone who has been flooded.
Onto my card then and I can only describe it as snow – lol. Is this perhaps taking Clean And Simple a bit far? See my new toy, it is scrummy, Dee’s Distinctively snow stacker tree die and gosh the only hard work was choosing as there were so many gorgeous ones.  The glitter box is also out – hee hee and my keyboard smells of coffee (oops) luckily I drink black coffee. Have some crafty fun. xx Flora.

  6. Hi Flora, have been thinking about you in all that blooming rain. Hope you are keeping dry, even though the lights are out. We get lots of Power Cuts so are well prepared, we also have the open fire which keeps us cozy.
    A beautiful sunny day here today long may it continue.

    I am loving your card, it is so elegant.

  22. Great idea to use polka dots as snow. I applaud your ability to keep white card white (minus mucky paw prints and such like) as this is something I fail to achieve regularly!! Love the sparkly letters too. Hugs, Buttons x
