Okay maybe I have made 10 cards. That is with working all day and most of them being half done. It's the deciding what I want to go on them that takes so long. Only 35 more to go. Anyway here are 3 that I like. I do enjoy making them so maybe I take my time. Supposed to be 16 degrees here tonight. Glad I am inside and warm. The angel one doesn't have a crooked ribbon the card wasn't straight when i scanned it. The Mail one has glass glitter to give it sparkle. Back to work!

I am very excited. Today I put a roast in the crock pot and I am staying in my craft room all day. I just tried a Split Negative Embossing technique I learned here http://stamptv.ning.com/video/split-negative It worked very well and I hope you can see it. There are silver lines of glitter in the background too. I love learning something new. There were a couple more I am trying. No more snow. Just cold but sunny. I am making Christmas cards all day so there may be more to come before I sleep.

We haven't had much snow here in the last 5 years or so but I suspect this is going to be a cold and snowy winter. Here is some Christmas inspiration. Also Herbie one of our many outdoor cats figured out how to climb the ladder onto the roof!! Hope everyone has a great day.
