Keeping warm on snowy days

Well, what better way to keep warm than in front roaring home made fire crafting,and then sharing the warmth and inspiration on here.  Card Making seems to be the focus on my crafty days atm, spending many hours stamping, embossing and coloring images then to get inpatient that i don't have the right background paper or having bigger inspirations in my head than I can make with the paper . 

 Well a light bulb moment struck (rare moments they are) and i believe a improvement was made in crafting skills as i stared down at the many background papers and released I was doing everything the wrong way round, i couldn't change the background papers color but i could color the images in different colors so i set too to matching papers I had together to create  background & theme for the card then to match a image to it.

Here are some of the creations:

• Boofle die cut - was purchased from Hobbycraft
• Background papers  are Papermania Flowery Collection - 
• Scolloped circle was cut using the holidays cartridge on eclipse die cutter
• Present Topper & Crown was made by myself from scraps from previous adventures
