He hath made every thing Beautiful…

It’s release day over at Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps. Here is a card I made using New Creature. The best thing about this set is you can get it in Digital form or as a clear set!  

I used copics V12, V15 & V17 on my butterfly and then added some Angel Wings shimmerz to it. I attached it only by it’s body.

I found a new challenge blog called: The Play Date Café, it is a color challenge and the colors were white and black with a pop of purple.

We are under a Winter Storm Warning till tomorrow night. School was canceled today and I expect again tomorrow if not Thursday too! We aren’t getting the snow like most are, (wish we were!!) we are getting ICE! We already have at least a 1/4 to 1/2 inch of ice outside. More ice is coming in a few hours and so are the winds. Hopefully it doesn’t take the power out! But I had to go out and take some pictures today as the ice is beautiful and it goes so well with the above scripture.

This is our sidewalk! A sheet of ice.icesidewalk

That ice is sooo beautiful, but soooo scary and dangerous! I hope things warm up for you soon. I'm in New Jersey, and we're having ice tonight. Love your CAS card with a pop of purple butterfly! Glad you joined us at the Play Date Cafe, and hope you come again soon. :D

Your card is beautiful. Love the simplicity of the layout.

I'm in Cincinnati and thankfully the ice missed us. Stay warm and safe.

Hey Amber...yup, those ice photos look similar to what we had a few years ago. It is awfully pretty on the trees. Thanks for sharing (hope all goes well tonight) and love the cards

This is beautiful! That butterfly just pops off the page.

My poor roses look the same, but they always survive & are beautiful in the summer - "everything in it's time."

Hope you're staying safe & warm! We didn't lose power, but there's a nice water leak down the wall from the 3" of ice on the roof.

I'm in IN and that's pretty much what everything looks like here too; now it's just super windy. I need to go take pictures as well. Thanks for sharing your beautiful CAS design with the Play Date Cafe this week.
