Thank you to Hero Arts!

 A Big Thank You to Hero Arts for their sponsorship of Die Cut Divas.  You've had an extra day this year to enter as it's the 29th of February!

I hope you pop on over to the Die Cut Divas' challenge blog to enter, but you only have until 9:00 p.m. Pacific time, so be quick.

I thought these owls looked like they wanted to be Valentine love birds and after I had colored them, I put them down to check on a couple things and they were sitting on a die cut that was my first try and didn't work out.  I did toss that one, but those birds happened to be tossed onto this very same tree.  They looked like they belonged there, so here they are. Since I had to fit the tree die over a smaller die, I lost some of the trees, but I think it's perfect for this scene.

It must be too hot or too cold for me.  January was all about spring for my choice of project and here I've created a snowman with a really funky background.  I used glossy paper for this one and almost threw it away because of the background, BUT, the more I looked at this, the more I actually like the background.  AND I am ahead of the Christmas card game at this point.
