Hello,
Oh my goodness how cold is it. Please wrap up and keep warm. Totally marooned in my house now. Can't get off my drive please let it thaw soon!
Thank goodness the snow didn't come yesterday as Claire has been in hospital with baby Isabella and was discharged yesterday. Poor baby has been so poorly. Bronchiolitis with a dreadful ear and throat infection. Claire has been worried out of her life. Thank goodness Isabella is on the mend now so we can start to relax.
My card today is coloured with distress inks. My Magnolia images are from the Magnolia Winter Stamp club. I masked Tilda onto the piano and added the candelabra on top. The background is distressed with weathered wood and I have edged everything with walnut stain. I have added my compulsory stickles too.
Thank you so much for looking. I hope your week is going well and if you are suffering this freeze keep warm!
love
