The snuggle is real...

 

Hello friends!

I'm back on the Blogabella after the holiday break with the first Scenic Saturday of 2025. The snow has really been piling up since the new year began, which always makes me want to stay indoors and keep cozy. That feeling ended up being the inspiration for my card, especially when I came across this adorable Tiny Townie Loves to Snuggle in my stamp stash.

This sweet Tiny Townie, all bundled up in a big cozy blanket was giving me all the snow day vibes. She has some good books and her special kitty friend to keep her company while the snow continues to fall outside. To help showcase the weather outside I masked this Townie before stamping the large Winter Window over her. Now, this retired stamp originally comes with a large pine tree outside the window, but I chose to wipe the ink away from it which left me with the open space to add part of the Winter Backdrop stamp instead. Now she has a view of her neighbor's house, where it looks like they are keeping cozy as well. To add the fun patterning to Tiny Townie's blanket, I first colored a base coat using light purple and grey Copic markers, then I masked off the area around the blanket before laying a stencil over top and airbrushing a mid-tone grey over the stencil and blanket. Now it looks just like a fuzzy blanket that I got from Costco, LOL! The sentiment I used comes with Tiny Townie Loves to Snuggle and I simply stamped it on a speech bubble die before popping it up above her head to complete the scene.

Stay warm and stay crafty my friends!
