Black is the New Black

Hello Everyone!

I don't usually use black on my cards, but I had such a good response to the black and beige Christmas card I made, and it was the first card I sold on Etsy, so I thought I would use the combination again. This card could be used for a wedding or anniversary or for that romantic holiday coming up in February.

Featuring the following papers from Pion Design:

To My Valentine - Valentine's Roses PD6806

To My Valentine - Forever Yours PD6809

The roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts, the filigree hearts are Scrapiniec, the heart die is from a local store, and everything else is from my delicious birthday stash of goodies from Mom!

Continuing with some lovely wintery shots today, although we actually had a big melt this week and lost most of the snow. Hopefully it will get cold again and refresh the world with a whole new blanket of white!

How much do I love a Cardinal in any season! 

So gorgeous with all his red and his 'give-it-up-lady' head turn! Lol

The Nuthatches seem to be far and few between this winter, must be the cold temps.

My New Year's resolution is to take more photos of the squirrels that visit every day. I sometimes take for granted those sweet faces because I see them so often, but I don't ever want to overlook one of these precious animals again, they are all my darling friends! 

This is how Baby Charlie is looking nowadays, so cute!!

In keeping with my New Year's resolution, I realized I've never posted a photo of Bernie. You all know Busty Bertha, well this is her brother. What a handsome little dude!

OK, so you already know my best bud Crazy Karen, but it's still worth mentioning what a complete dollface she is with her winter coat on, plus, I will never tire of posting her photos!!

That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments. If you have any questions or interesting tidbits about today's wildlife, please let me know.
