Winter in July!

Well, with the weather we're having at the moment, you could be forgiven for thinking that we're experiencing winter - wind, rain, cold.  You never know what to wear or what to take out with you!

 The reason for my title in this blog is that the alpha dictionary challenge for the Craft Barn this time is the letter 'W', and I have chosen to illustrate 'winter'.  I think I've also been influenced by all the lovely new dies for Christmas that have been hitting the craft stores and showing online!

 I love making Christmas cards and so I very happily dug out some of my wintery dies!



The paper I've used is a small scrap of BoBunny paper featuring snowflakes, and I added a few snowflake dies on top.  Finally, I added a liberal pinch of glitter in all the centres (although the photo does not show it terribly well!)

 I had an even smaller scrap left over and so I made a small Christmas card, using Sue Wilson's tag die and her new Christmas sentiment.  I really like the style of the sentiment, combining capital letters and a friendly scripty font.  OK, so that's the second Christmas card I've made so far!  Only about 80 to go! LOL!

Thank you for visiting!

    Snowflakes are so perfect for a winter themed tag. This is lovely, you can tell you like making Christmas cards.

    A pretty cool blue tag. I wish the weather would improve too.

    Your colour choice gives the feel of a cold winters day. A super tag.

    Very pretty, let's hope we get some summer though before winter sets in!
