Snow Finally...

We have not had significant snow here in WI in about 280 something days. I may be off a lil but today was such a surprise. We finally have snow! It looks so pretty coming down on the trees and ground but once it gets slippery, slushy, and muddy it's a wrap! I hate it! I hate driving in it. I pray all the way to my destination that God will protect us-me from hitting someone else and from someone else from hitting us.

So after I got the kids from school and grabbed something to eat they wanted to play in the snow. So I had to pull out the real winter wear and let them have fun. The pictures aren't great but I'm sure I will have more chances but since it was the first snow, I will edit them the best I can and make do! I want to document this memory.

I used Picasa to edit. I used the Cross Process filter and then layered the 1960's filter over it. I love how it turned out

I also finished this layout last night.

Pure Cuteness

The background paper is Basic Gray Orange Whip, I used Tattered Angels Aquamarine and Crafters Workshop 12/12 Circle Explosion template-sorry the misting is hard to see. I stitched on the top and the bottom of the layout and added aqua and pink floss. I made the banner behind the picture with 5th & frolic Cozy Court. I used a scrap of Basic Gray Fine China and EK Dandelion Burst and mounted on top of the banner. I anchored the photo with a scrap of paper and added a rub-on on from Basic Gray Hopscotch. The letter stickers are Glitz Designs Tiffany Blue. A the bottom I added a scrap of On Trend and a blue button. Thanks for looking.
