Pop-Up Valentine Card

Valentine's day will be here in just a couple more weeks! How about sending your sweetheart a pop-up card for the occasion? Inspired by Tami Maberry's card from the winter issue of CardMaker, I created a floating hearts card posted here


It's a balmy 6 degrees outside this morning, the coldest it's been since we moved to North Carolina 9+ years ago! Schools are closed once again and Christopher is looking forward to playing in the snow some more.


Couch cat, Latte, is unaware of the freezing cold...he's having a nap in the living room this morning.


Young Oreo isn't bothered by the snow, he sits in the snow that gathered on the patio.


Cold winter gear lines the kitchen counter.


Snowy weather is the perfect time to continue with my crochet lessons...I learned how to make these flowers yesterday using this tutorial.

So...what's the weather like in your neck of the woods?

  1. We're actually out of the deep freeze for the second day in a row (no school Monday or Tuesday because of temps below or near zero and wind chills in the -30s). Today it's supposed to be windy and snow's supposed to be flying, but they're not expecting us to get more than an inch. We've had snow just about every other day since the beginning of December and while it hasn't been a lot of snow at any one time, it's unusual for us to have snow so frequently in addition to not having it warm enough to actually melt very much.
    I hope your family enjoys the snow while it lasts! It can be a lot of fun, especially if you have the right clothes! Have a great day!

  3. Such a nice post Kathy! I'm with Latte - I'd pick the couch! LOL. It's so dry and warm here in Cali. We are praying for rain. Thanks for making me smile today. XO
