Dog Days of Winter


Dog Days of Winter

So, it was absolutely amazing and wonderful to have the day off. It is about the only thing Presidents are good for....(just kidding!).

Anyway, it is kinda crazy that yesterday it was 66 degrees and today it is snowing. Only in Ohio.

I thought I'd make one last winter card for the season, since Mother Nature is still thinking winter.

This is from a Fan Club Sketch Challenge on SCS. The dog is from Penny Black. I stamped the image on Sterling Matte Coated paper and colored with Copics. I'm kinda thinking I want to explore watercoloring or other media a bit...but I just can't seem to break away from my comfort zone. Patterned paper, ribbon, snowflake brads and Tulip Puffy paint were also used.

Now....back to spring. Please.

This is adorable! I love the layout and how you put the ribbon under the block. You've created real movement with the dog.
