Sending this to someone who has 3 dachshunds. I tried to color each one their true color but not sure how 100% accurate I got. LOL

I painted this plaid background with just watercolors. I cut out this heart with my die cut from Concord & 9th. I learned this technique in Kristina Werner's class over the summer.

Still no snow here in real life, but I am sure having fun playing with this snowman set!! I just love him!! I made this cute snowman card into a Valentine for a friend. For the hearts, I didn't want them to be too dark so I first stamped them off on paper, then lightly stamped on the watercolored background.

I'm feeling much better since getting my tooth pulled and still eating soft foods. I've been doing a lot of reading the past few days and I even made this card :).

I survived my tooth being pulled yesterday. It was a much longer appt than anticipated (2 hours instead of just 1) but they also added some bone in so now my "hole" has to heal for 4 months before my new tooth is implanted. The pain has been minimal and I have been alternating Motrin and Tylenol every 3 hours. I even set my alarm all night so I got very little sleep but I'm not hurting much at all. The swelling is also minimal since I have been putting ice on it too. Today I have to do heat on it. Still have to eat soft foods for 2-3 days.
I love this elephant and monkey image by Purple Onion Designs.

Tomorrow I get a tooth extracted for preparation for a tooth implant in several months. I am dreading it but it needs to be done!!
I love these 3 flamingos by Angie Blom. So easy to print off and color.

I decided to make a bunch of birthday cards for my friends this year using these die cuts by Concord & 9th. It's much easier when you make them all at once, just in different colors :).

This snowman is perfect for today as we "might" be getting some snow in NC today. It only snows once or twice a year so I am like a kid at Christmas when it does!! We'll see if we get anything!! It's just raining/sleeting right now.
