Tired Of Snow!

Yesterday it snowed all day but only managed to wet the pavement. Today, they are calling for a coating. They are not committing to what is coming on Tuesday, and that is a bit scary. Everyone I talk to is in a blue funk. My poor DD in upper NJ has nowhere else to pile snow. She sent me a photo and I started laughing... she started crying! There is a hint that Tuesday will bring her 2 more feet. I sent this to a few friends already but I though I would share it here. The poor thing!

Anyhow, when I sat down and started coloring some digi images, I found this birdhouse in my stash. It has no name listed, so if anyone knows who the illustrator is, please let me know. It had me thinking Spring, and we can all use a little thought of that! I blew up the image until it was approx. 5 inches, colored it with pencils, oms, and Copics. I took a sheet of Pure Luxury card stock in red, folded it in half, and placed the roof line along the seam, moving it in slightly. After the image was adhered, I cut out the shape leaving a 1/8 inch edge. I added glitter, Glossy Accents, Prima's and Gems. I would have liked to have added some ribbon, but I was not sure where. I will use this for one of my RAK birthday cards this month. I thought it came out cheerful.

Thanks again to everyone who designed or visited the Valerie's Gift Hop! It was so nice to see Colleen's excitement!
