Longing for Warmth

Today the sun is shining brightly and I have a longing for warmth. I know it is only January and where we live, we are in for a good bout of winter yet. Good thing that 2 weeks from now I will be sitting on the beach in Puerto Vallarta! I really do like the winter, snow etc, but always right after the holidays, it is nice to have sunshine and warmth. (have to get up on the ski hill a few more times too, so winter can't be over yet ;)


Today I have a bright coloured card to share... I love how the Gable Green and Pretty in Pink look together. I had pieces of the "scallops" from the scallop tutorial left over and used them here. I also used the Level 3 Hostess set "Time Well Spent", coloured using Gable Green and Pretty in Pink. The brads are also Gable Green from the "Bold Brights" brads.


There, now I feel warm again!

Decor Element Sample

Just thought I would share with you where I put my first Decor Elements. I wanted to put this in my stamping room but really, if you have seen my room, there is no place on the walls to put it. I figured above the door is a good spot, perfect size and I look straight at it when I am busy "creating" My boys decided I needed a letter "C" to put in front so I have ordered and received it, just haven't put it up yet. If you come by my stamp room, be sure to have a peek at it for real. Oh, and these are super easy to apply. I did have some difficulty with the "dots" however, I have since received some tips and if you plan to get these, I will share them with you. :) Stampin' Up! has also created both an instruction sheet and a video for applying these.

Birthdays

Today is our Japanese student's birthday. We had a great celebration with her and a guest, including some major "baby" time where everyone got to hold Addison. She loved her gifts and was especially thankful for a home-made card. I can't say this is my own design as I copied it from a sample received in a swap when this set was in the mini catalog. But I have added a few of my own touches. Enjoy!
