Wintery Thank You Challenge

I have to admit this challenge wasn't much of a stretch.  I have over 9" of snow in my yard and it's been in the single digits all week with another week to go.  I feel like I'm living in Winter Wonderland!  Friday, when I drove my daughter to school it was -4.  Burrrrr.  I think it's time for a road trip (or plane trip) somewhere sunny and warm!

Cold weather is always more enjoyable with people.  So join in the fun and play in the Doodle Dragon Studios "Wintery Thank You" challenge!  Light the fire, get some hot chocolate and craft away in your fuzzy slippers. Then post your chilly project to the challenge before Sunday, January 13th.

Bundle up & stay warm!

Ever had a project you just avoided getting around to, yet needed to ummm... yesterday? I'm having one of those days. I just can't seem to get into doing this project (big bulletin board) I was asked to do. I think it's because it's a more serious, not my usual genre project. I'm a more whimsy style and the project is a more Teresa Collins style. Does that make any sense? I can actually see the finished project in my mind, I just need to start. Right after...

I was surfing the web (to my defense, I was originally looking for idea for the project then was sidetracked) and found a this fun sketch challenge over at The Sweet Stop blog and decided to play along. Dustin Pike's - Doodle Dragon Studios birdie & snowman wanted to be made into something. So it was the perfect match!

Okay, now I'm really going to start on my real project. Wish me luck! Or maybe say a prayer would be more helpful!
