Time to bundle up...

Whatever happened to fall?  The furnace is going strong, we need our winter coats, and some areas have even had some flurries.  It would appear that in this part of the world, global warming means long cold winters....lets just hope Mother Nature is just playing a trick and maybe some warmer weather will re-appear.  I can dream can't I?


Here's a little guy from Meljen's Designs, and he's all ready for the cold!  I've coloured with copics, adding some glitter pen to highlight the snow.  I've used a Spellbinder's die to cut and mat the image, and a Simon Says Curvy Snowflake die for my embellishment.  The paper is an antique (ha ha) from my scrapbooking days, and as you can see, I made good use of some sparkly paper from my stash.

Looks like I'll soon be into hibernation mode, just one more garden to tear down and then I think I will stay inside until spring!  Take care everyone...happy crafting.
