Snowflakes

As you all know, I live in Florida, so snowflakes are not really something we see, although we did
see some here in Central Florida in 1978, I believe. So, we make ours out of other things, like Whisper White card stock.

This card is very simple using the Snowflake Embossing Folder and Northern Frost Die for the Big Shot. I'm sorry, but not sure those are the correct names. I have everything packed in my car at the moment and am guessing, but they are both in the Holiday Mini Catalog. (yes, I should know, but I'm old, lol)

Colors are Whisper White and Bashful Blue. You cannot see the shimmer here, but I used our Champagne Shimmer Paint in a mist to spray over this card, it is really beautiful. The new Decorator Label Punch is also on this card. It really is my go to punch for sentiments these days, so if you don't have it, you need it. Really.

Have a great Friday. Comments are appreciated.

BRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, Good Morning to you all. I apologize in advance because today I don't have a card for you, I do, however, want to share a few pictures I have taken this week.

As you know, I live here in Sunny Florida, Plant City, actually, Winter Strawberry Capital of the World. It's beautiful here and sunny, and usually a great place to live....except when it is FREEZING outside. Now I know that where you live you may have 15 feet of snow and I also know that we have freezing temperatures from time to time, but it usually warms up during the day and usually only hangs around for a day or two. Not this past week or so. This is what I saw on my way to town yesterday about 2PM.



and this is what I saw this morning on my way to work:



They irrigate the strawberries constantly so that they get a layer of ice on them and it protects them, hopefully. Then, because we pulled so much water from the aquifer, we get sinkholes. There is a new one about 1/2 mile from me.

and this:



Dear Mother Nature, I know you want to change it up a bit and keep us guessing, but
this is Florida. We can't handle it. We don't even have warm clothes, don't usually need them. Could you please get us back to our normal temps for this time of the year? Thanks, A Florida Cracker

Thanks for stopping in. I will have some clipboards and frames for you tomorrow. See ya then.
