Read - Relax - Repeat...FMS675

 

This card tells you all you need to know on how I have spent the month of February! It has been a wild winter but March is upon us and I look forward to longer days and warmer temperatures. And by warmer temperatures I mean above freezing.....yep it has been one of those winters!

I managed to sneak in a couple of card classes with my friend Brian King as well.  Zoom calls with crafters are a wonderful way to spend snowy afternoons. I also do a weekly zoom call with retired teacher friends. Kudos to the creators of Zoom - such a wonderful way too keep in touch!

Call me old fashioned but I adore wallpaper and this designer paper provided the perfect "wallpapered" backdrop for my book shelves!

It is my turn to host this week at Freshly Made Sketches.  I have a super simple sketch with lots of possibilities for creative interpretations ~  I look forward to seeing what you come up with!  Hope you join the fun!

Flowers On A Snowy Day - FMS 674

 

We are just buried in snow this winter - one storm after another!  So I was delighted to take an on line class with Brian King and Emma Goddard for entertainment. Their "Super Awesome Fun Time Card Kits" never disappoint!  This class featured the Mixed Florals Bundles and Labels with the coordinating DSP. And since I had everything on my desk from the class I decided to use the set for my FMS card this week.  I kept it light and springy on purpose!

Jen has a wide open sketch for us this week at Freshy Made Sketches! Have fun with it!

Under The Weather.....FMS673

 

Under the weather here means buried under snow these days so it was fun to think spring and add some raindrops! 

 But raindrops in the winter here create ice in a New York minute.  The annual ice festival was happening just north of us in Saranac Lake this past weekend and Miss Emma enjoyed the musical themed ice castle!

I enjoyed the photos from my fireside chair!

Jenn Timko has a great sketch for us this week! Hope you join us at Freshly Made Sketches!

Bee Mine....FMS672

 

We had one storm after another in January so I was hoping February might be a bit calmer......but nope...more snow with a frosting of icy rain this week.  Had to strap on the ice cleats over my boots just to take the dog out.  So I enjoyed staying inside and making a card with summery bees and blossoms!

Hope you play around with Jacquie's fun sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
