“Adults are always asking children what they want to be when they grow up because they’re looking for ideas.” — Paula Poundstone

Hello!

Hope you are well!

I must be on a roll this week! Or I need cards made! 

I have not used all the stamps etc. I HAD to have over the last year! But I am making a serious effort!

 

This is a Penny Black Stamp from Mimi's Winter Friends. I tore cardstock for snow, colored with Ohuhu markers, stickles for snow flakes.

ABC Christmas Challenge S is for Snowmen T is for Transport Pretty sure you could ride a reindeer!

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #787 Christmas

Christmas Kickstart #114 Reindeer Games

Merry Little Christmas #70 Anything Christmas Goes 

NBUS First Go Round for the stamp! 

It has warmed up here, and will stay that way for about a week....so I will get after the gardens! One of the raised beds is cleaned out! 3 to go, and some little squash! I did 2 pints of dilled carrots from the bed I cleaned out! 

Talk to ya later!

A lovely winter scene, Gail. I'm also guilty of owning stamps that haven't seen any ink yet.... that I just HAD to buy. 😂 xx

Adorably cute, Gail. I don't always play with all of my stash either... Shhhh, it'll be our secret! Love the saying at the top of your post too - very funny. Thanks for playing along with Loll and me at The Christmas Kickstart, hugs, Jo x

Good job cleaning up the garden, canning, and still making great cards, Gail! This one is so adorable! I love your coloring, torn and glittered snowy hills, and most of all, her sweet pompoms! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell

Lovely cards, Gail and I love the colours you chose for the coat, scarf and hat I'd love an outfit like that! You set a lovely sparkly and snowy scene too.
Thanks for sharing with us at ABC Christmas Challenges.
