Snain

Raise your hand if you know what snain is...yep, snow and rain mixed, and that's exactly what's going on outside today. Being a stone's throw away from Lake Michigan, the biggest weather moderator in Wisconsin, has made for a warmish day, hence the rain. And that on top of heavy wet snow from last night. The plows came through already and created a wall about 3' high at the end of our driveway. Yipee. And my snow removal guy hasn't been here yet...with an upcoming appointment and Lenten services this evening. Should be fun...or not.

Have been thinking about the inspiration photo over at Muse all morning. It's so pretty. Deanna Jean really makes the most gorgeous cards. See for yourself:



Wonderful, isn't it? I liked the colors and the flowers, so I checked to see what was in my stash, and ended up making this:

The leaves and flower stamps are from PTI, and sentiment is SU. I used lots of different inks; SU, Momento, Color Box, and Studio G. Though it is difficult to see, all the yellow centers are popped up, as is the entire middle flower. Rather than fussy cut the flowers, my patience being short today, I just used a large circle punch. Simple. Happy dances everyone.
