Dreaming of Cooler Weather

If you are like me, you are dreaming of cooler weather.  Last night, my family (including my new grandson) were all laying around talking about our favorite Fall and Winter things - hot chocolate, caramel apples, pumpkins, wearing sweaters and coats, Halloween and Christmas movies on TV, and the beauty of the leaves and trees.  I had to make a cooler weather card after all that dreaming! 



I used the DRS Designs Snow Tree with Fence (144M) image to create this scene.  I was inspired by THIS wonderful picture at Artful Home (the inspiration site in the Inspiration Challenge at SCS this week).  The image did all the work - all I had to do was a little watercolor line in the background.  A few SB dies and Martha Steward punches made the frame. 

There are still a few more hours to enter in the DRS Designs Cause a Scene Challenge!

Many hugz!

    Oh that cool scene looks so good. Love the snowflake and ferns also. It was so nice to think of you whole family discussing what you like about the upcoming seasons, all the same things I love. I guess with your dreaming and mine things may work out for us here in New England anyway. Starting tomorrow our temps will be going down to the high 70's which is so much better than recent temps. I'm very happy because we are having our annual block party on Saturday and it will be nice to set it all up in cooler temps. Enjoy your week.

    I've gotten behind and tonight I had the chance to stop in because I've been dying to know if your grandchild arrived and how everyone is doing. So when I got back to this post, it karacked me up, Nancy! First of all, congratulations on the birth of your first grandson!! And, secondly, when you say you were all laying around and talking, including him, just what were his thoughts, exactly, lol!! Your card is spotless and gorgeous!! (I'm going to keep going back in case there are photos!) Hugs, Darnell
