Card and ATC

A possible major snowstorm is forecast for our area over the next couple of days, and I do hope they are right!  I need one good snowstorm at least this winter.  We have only been getting a couple of inches here and there.  I know most of you probably do not like the snow, but I love the peaceful quiet of fresh fallen snow.  With such chilly weather, I made a large pot of homemade chicken noodle soup today to be enjoyed with some warm, crusty bread.

Enough about the weather and food!  Today, I have a card and an ATC to share using Prima's Romance 6x6 paper pad.

One of my co-workers recently celebrated a milestone birthday which also happens to be Christmas Day.  She is adamant about not receiving Christmas-theme cards or wrappings for her birthday.  I did a lot of fussy cutting from the papers to create the cluster layered onto the Wilton doily.  I have had the flowers forever.  The vine is a Cheery Lynn die and the sparkly dots are from Recollections.  Sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.  The butterfly was cut from a piece of notepaper.

Next up is an ATC that I made from the leftover pieces of paper used for the card.

The flowers and black pearl swirl are Prima as well as the diecut skeleton leaf (love it!).  I added some Stickles and rhinestones to the fussy cut flowers.  The little crystal drop attached to the bow is from 7 Gypsies, and the metal corner is from my stash.  All edges were distressed and inked.

Well, that's it for me today.  I am working on some Valentine projects and hope to share some of them next time.  Thank you so very much for taking the time to stop by.  I love to read your comments and appreciate receiving them.  Enjoy the week ahead!
