Snowed In!

Hi there! I don't know about you, but here is Staffordshire, the ground is covered with several inches of snow, and it looks like a blizzard outside! The snow is falling thick and fast, and me and my mum and my brother are at home because mine and my brother's schools are closed, woo hoo!
They're saying it's the coldest British winter in a century, and I'm not surprised, to be honest. It has been absolutely bitter of the last couple of weeks!
Here is just a very quick, basic card I made, with one of these lovely round, scalloped cards that Chris sent me.
Materials:
Image: Penny Black
Sentiment: Studio G
Flowers: Prima
Backing Paper: Dovecraft
Colouring Medium: Pro Markers
Other Embellishments: From my Stash
I am going to enter it into this week's A Spoon Full Of Sugar Challenge, where the challenge is to use hearts on your card. I didn't plan for this to be entered into any challenge when I made it, but how lucky is that that I found a challenge asking for hearts, lol!
Finally, here is my view from my bedroom window this morning. The amount has definitely doubled since I took this picture about an hour ago, and the snow is still coming!

A beautiful snowy tree in my garden.


Thanks for looking and I hope the snow doesn't affect people too badly, although no complaints about getting a day off school! ;)
Love, Georgia xxxx

A Spoon Full Of Sugar Challenge #63



Hi There! Hope the weather's good wherever you are, it's been drizzly all day here in Staffordshire but I'm not much of a sun-worshipper anyway. Something other than rain would make a nice change, though!
I'm entering this card into A Spoon Full Of Sugar, where the theme is 'Floral Fantasy'.
I have used one of these lovely round scalloped-edge cards sent to me by Chris. I really like these and I thought I'd try something a little different.
To fit in with the flower theme I have used flowery backing paper, three flowers and there are a couple of flowers on my image too.
Materials
Image: Penny Black
Sentiment: Studio G
Paper: Making Memories - Flower Patch
Embellishments: Iced gems, flowers and gems from my stash. Leaf stamp borrowed off my mum.



Here is a closer view:
Thank you for looking! :)
