There'll be a change in the weather...



Just as the song of the title says, there's been a change in the weather here. I suspect it was blown in by the heavy winds we had yesterday, continuing today. The weatherman says that it's 34°, but feels like 23°. It feels even lower to me! But, as always, there's cause for rejoicing; the colder it gets here, the sunnier it is!
There's a lot of glorious sun out there, trying desperately to warm things up, but the wind has other ideas. Don't you love it when everything works together to create confusion?
The card immediately above, was made for my older granddaughter, who will become a teenager next month. The House Mouse one will be a Valentine for someone.

In from the Cold!

Down with a cold/flu, whatever it was, just beginning to fell slightly normal(???) today, and ready to start stamping! Did it with this valentine card.
The card was made using SU (Stampin Up!) Sell-a-bration 2007 set, "Plaisir de vivre"/"Delight in Life", and SU "Wild Hearts" background. The phrase was made using a stamp included with a British magazine. The paper is also SU; Cranberry Crunch and Marigold Morning. Forgot; the bit of brown cs is from a non-SU stash I've made myself promise I'd use up before buying any SU cs. The CC and MM cs are the only SU cardstock I have, besides Whisper White. Ran out of white in my stash. Hear me chuckle!
The ink is SU Cranberry Crunch and Memories Black. Ditto promise for using up my non-SU inks.
I hope it's warm somewhere, because we're up to our ears in snow and have had a couple of weeks with windchill-warning temps ranging from -28F to -35F. Flu and windchill are enough of an excuse to keep me indoors and stamping, so I'll get to it. Maybe. Back to the couch, blanky and cats for now.
