Cold Weather Crafting...

Our winter was rather warm up until a few days ago, and now we're making up for it BIG time. Tonight is going to drop down to -36 degrees Celsius with a wind chill of -51. Google tells me that's -32 / -60 Farenheit. I'm sure grateful for a warm and safe home tonight.
All the cold weather is good for my crafting Mojo, though, and I am happy to have another card to share with you. This uses a sketch I found through Google images, at a wonderful blog Ink Stains with Roni. Here is the link to the sketch - from 2009. This was a fun layout, and I was really loving these papers.


Cardstock: Bazzill, Copic Express It
PP: My Mind's Eye Fine & Dandy
Stamps: TPC Birthday Party
Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa
Tim Holtz Vintage Photo
Copic markers
Brads: American Crafts Chestnut

Thanks for dropping by! Keep well and stay warm :)

Hi Dixie, thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a such a sweet comment! I love the colors you used on your birthday card! The number patterned paper is great!

That temp is not fit for humans you need to go south. I am born and raised in New England and I thought windchill of -20 F was bad. Your card is so perfect, love the candles with the Celebrate and that great paper. Stay warm and safe.

A great "him" card. Masculine cards are so hard for me to make. TFS
