Baby It's Cold Outside!

Hello Crafty Peeps!  Long time no see.  I cannot believe it been five and a half months since my last post.  The time has flown by but that's because I've been so busy at work (UPS) in what we call Peak Season and hiring so many people for the holiday deliveries.  I had also gotten a little burned out on card making but am now ready to go with all kinds of ideas whirling through my head that I must sketch out in my notebook soon before they disappear.  It's tough getting old...

I am excited to announce that I am a new member of the MicheleRDesigns Design Team and am thrilled to be working with her digital papers.  I sincerely hope that I do her beautiful papers justice with my card creations.  So without further ado, I give you my first card of the year.

I am using several things that I got for Christmas.  This sweet It's Cold Outside Tilda by Magnolia Stamps was a gift from my sister Kelly and I've colored her with Copic Markers.  The background is done with Distress Ink and spattered with Gloss Enamel.  I've used several DooHickeys dies from club # 7 and my dear hubby got me the Spellbinders Timeless Rectangles along with everything else I had on my Joann's wish list.  I am a very lucky woman!  And now for the papers...

The Winter Frost collection by MicheleRDesigns was perfect for this project and, for me, the best part was that my Copic Markers and Distress Inks matched up perfectly with the colors of the papers. LOVE that!

Copic Markers - Skin: E0000, E000, E00, E11, R20  Hair: E33, E35, E37, E50  Coat & Boots: E70, E74, E79, B91, B93, B95  Fur N0, N2, N4  Holley & Berries: YG61, YG63, YG67, R24, R29

Thank you so much for stopping by and taking a peek.  Have a wonderful day!
