Winter is Calling

Hi friends! If you are stopping by...I wish you a warm welcome! Life has been pretty full and busy and a little too hectic for me with renovation deadlines of our mountain condo looming 10 days before Christmas! We had extended family coming this year and lots to do. Stamping time has been limited, but I did manage to pull out one of my very first stamp purchases. This was bought on E-bay for $33.00. It was one of my first ever purchases...you know when you type in a minimum bid? My finger accidentally hit a few more digits than I realized...I think I was only bidding 3.30 at the time, and then my bid showed up as $330.00. I kind of panicked until the auction was finished, and I only paid a mere $33.00...which was about twice what I had intended. But, I still don't regret it as this is probably my favorite little girl to color up, and there is also one of a puppy in the set holding a mitten that pretty much steals my heart as well! Speaking of...our little puppy, Beulah, is now 6 months old...I will be sure to include a picture of her later this week as she is the sweetest!
 And now for a little close up...

That fun white stuff you heat set and it gets all fluffy and texture-y...I can't think of the name of it...and added pink pearls and used the background basics, also from SU! for snow in Memento Fog ink. I had so much fun visiting this set again...thank you for your visit as well! If you're still around, send me a little comment, would you?
Stay warm and cozy~
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

  2. So pretty and sweet. I love the vibrant color, great textured background.
    I would of freaked out at that large amount too. Good think it wasn't that large and yes maybe a little spendy on the actual amount but if you use it great!
