We're supposed to be getting an arctic blast through here this weekend, bringing with it our first snow of the season. I'm not exactly thrilled about the idea of driving in the snow once again but ya do what ya gotta do. Hopefully this 'La Nina' year isn't as bad as they are predicting... ;)
Speaking of winter wonderlands, I think my card today brings to mind a snowy day. The Dear Lizzy paper inspired the whole thing with it's cool berry branch looking design which brought to mind the magic of freshly fallen snow out in nature. From magic my mind leapt to fairies and I remembered this little Pergamano cutie. She is actually part of the Summer Fairies set but her striped tights, fur lined clothes and jingle bells on her shoes look way more Christmas/wintry than summery if you ask me. Throw in that little squirrel with his present and I think they make for a fun holiday card.
Ok, I'm outta here. Hope your weekend is a wonderful one... rain, snow or shine. :)

This is adorable! I think someone made a mistake putting her is a summer collection. Even her shoes look live hollie leaves. lol...I love your color combo and you always color so nicely. We are supposed to get some snow over here also. Who would think that when just Wednesday and yesterday I was outside without a coat on in the evening? Have a great weekend. Hope you don't have to work it. Hugs, Lisa
