Three Christmas Trees

I love THIS paper pad by 7Gypsies.  All the papers are delicious.  I wanted to make a vintage-y style Christmas card with them, even though they are not Christmas papers.  I seem to have forgotten to buy ANY Christmas papers this year!  Amazing.  So I am using my non Christmas products the best way I can.

I really really love distress ink... thanks Jennifer McGuire for making my life complete!!!
Happy Monday everyone.  Any snow where you are?  It's still cold here - I am snuggling in front of my log fire with my cat.  Heaven.

This is lovely Lucy. Would you like to me to post some snow to you? There is 13.5 inches of it sitting in my garden - we can spare a bit for sure :lol:

Such a gorgeous card, Lucy! Love your trees and the one with the bow is perfect!

A bit of snow still left here from our last storm. Today is very warm for Minnesota this time of year. . .44 degrees and it's pouring rain. The temps are suppose to drop tonight, rain turning to snow with 3 to 5 inches of the white stuff falling by morning. It's pretty but I hate driving in it! Have a warm and cozy night!
