Well, winter found SW Montana and decided it's such a great place to hang out that it's going to stay for at least a couple more weeks. We are getting all of our snow now... all of it! Of course, that's assuming I know what I'm talking about and let's get real... nobody is great at weather haha~! All my planned activities have been canceled for today so I'm inside unless I'm outside shoveling. I looked at my cards today and wondered what to blog about. There are all kinds of springy, pretty themes among them but all I can think about is snow.
So, I'm going back to one of the most popular stamps and framelit bundles SU has every produced called "Colorful Seasons". It's still available in the annual catalog and I spent some time with it a few weeks ago. It was like visiting an old friend and we picked up right where we left off. I don't know how much longer this bundle will be available but you really should get it if you don't already have it! I had some fun with the winter, spring and summer motifs and wanted to share those with you today.
Nothing evokes winter like bare tree branches and snow... lots of it. The one thing I did that is kinda fun is I embossed my card with the Subtle embossing folder. It gives the card stock a textured appearance that is awesome!
Spring is a good time for blossoms to peek out and green grass to emerge. I love the embossing details of the flowers that are part of the dies that I used to cut them. No extra work... the Big Shot just does its thing. I could sit in that chair for awhile, how about you.... BUT, not today!
Ok, I have to admit the whole reason I wanted this bundle so bad was for these Adirondack chairs! They couldn't be any sweeter! I decided a beach scene was perfect including a picturesque sky and a couple of happy butterflies. The Softly Falling embossing folder makes great sand as well as snow!
I'm hosting one class this week, as long as the weather doesn't object. It's on Wednesday, open house style, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. It's called "Punch Party" and will be all about the huge lineup of Stampin'Up!'s punches. Let me know if you are interested in coming and I'll shoot you the details!
Okay... I've stalled long enough. It's time to shovel at least some of the white stuff until my husband can get home and blast it all with the snowblower. Have a wonderful Monday wherever you are! Drop me a comment! I'd love to connect through the power of blogging and technology!
Happy Stampin'!
