Winter Birds

Well, thanks to some friends coming over to stamp, the pit I call my stamp studio is now clean. No, I didn't make my friends help clean up, I was so embarrassed that I cleaned it before they came over. I invite people over for dinner sometimes just to give me the added kick in the rear I need to tidy things up. Tell me I am not the only one who does that?!

The weekend was also very productive. I got some Stampavie Projects done, baked a peaches and cream pie, made a second (double) batch of spaghetti sauce with meatballs and cooked up a pot roast for the family. The best part was hubby doing clean up after I used just about every dish, pot and appliance in the kitchen. Love that guy!!

I even snuck in creative time. Here is a sample I posted to the Stampavie blog today. The image is called Winter Birds from the Tina Wenke collection.

Kraft serves as the base for this card, anchoring a darker/richer color scheme. The image pretty much takes up the whole card, just a bit of room for some crinkled ribbon. After I colored the image with Copics, I added fine glitter to all the areas of snow.

I have a busy week ahead of me but hope to be back again soon with another project.

Have a great day!
