Peach Roses

Hello Everyone!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday this year! I love seeing friends and family and all the activities that come with it, but I'm glad to get back to a regular routine and get back to my craft room too!

I thought I would start the year with something soft and feminine. I have used papers from Graphic 45 and Pion Design to create a card that could be used for most any occasion. I just love this wood frame flourish from Scrapiniec, it makes such a unique focal piece!

I got these peach roses a while back in a package of pink toned roses from Wild Orchid Crafts. All of the pink ones are long used and these peach roses are still there because I have no papers that match. So I decided to make the roses the only peach on the card and let them stand on their own, I think it worked.

Lots of new laces, fabric flowers and lace leaves, all from my birthday stash from my Mom! I still have a couple dozen laces I haven't even used yet! Thanks Mom, you're the best!

It's truly been a Canadian winter so far this year! We had the first white Christmas that I've seen in over a decade and I am just loving all the snow and the chilly weather. This heavy winter has been very tough on the wildlife though, so I have been extra diligent in making sure everyone gets a balanced diet and has access to stuffing to keep their nests warm for the -30C nights!

For today, just some shots left over from last year. Next post I will have all new photos to share and updates on the sick baby squirrels!
