Isn't she lovely?

Allie posed herself for these pictures, saying, "I'm a kitty cat. My name is Serafina." She's so sweet. I just love her.

Isaac's cute writing and more snow...

Isaac brought this home from school recently. It says, "I can kook (cook). I can red (read). I can slep (sleep). It just makes me smile.

We're getting another major ice and snow storm today. Shane found 1/4 inch of ice on our driveway this morning. Now we're getting something like 5 to 14 inches on top of the ice and on top of the snow that's already on the ground from the last snowstorm just a few days ago. Oy! Driving has been a challenge for me in our sedan. I can hardly see around the snowbanks at intersections. With this additional snowfall, it's going to be even more difficult.

Church is cancelled today, so we're staying put. I made chili for lunch. It seemed like the perfect comfort food when you're snowed in. It doesn't do much for the cabin fever we're all experiencing, though. So... Shane and I are thinking of taking the kids to an indoor waterpark in the Wisconsin Dells, which is about an hour from here. Isaac is off of school on Friday and I don't have to babysit, so Lord willing, that's when we'd go.

I'll take some outside pictures when the snowstorm is over so you can see what it's like up here in Winter Wonderland.

New Design, Better Card Sample

The colors are darker in real life. I used Versamark and used chalks to color the image. The grass and trees are Certainly Celery, the sun is Apricot Appeal, the flower is Regal Rose, and the bird is Almost Amethyst. I wish it showed up in the scan!

I like this one way better than the one I posted below. I hope you like it better, too!

The Cards I Made Tonight

I can't believe it's 11:30 p.m. already! These are the cards I'm thinking of demonstrating at a workshop Wednesday night. There are going to be around 15 people there. I've never done a party that big. (For those of you family members out of state, I sell rubber stamps made by Stampin' Up!) I'm trying to keep the cards quick and simple, but it's hard! I like the flower card and the celebrate card, but the white card is lacking something. Feel free to let me know what you think!
