An Invincible Summer

Don't you just love this quote that comes with the new MidWinter plate?  So uplifting and wonderful - just like this MidWinter plate is wonderful!  For this card, I wanted a feel of a very vintage country winter scene and opted to go with a kraft monochromatic palette with accents done in black.  I kept it simple using the quote and the hare for embellishments plus a little bottle of snow with summer breaking through.  A pretty piece of black lace, an altered filigree corner and some corrugated cardboard snowflakes finished it off.

Great to have you visiting with us today.  Thanks for stopping in.

Linda, this is one of the most inspirational cards that I have ever seen! Like Anne, I love the 'Summer' in a bottle and that quote is amazing. This would be such a great card to send to a friend who has been facing tough times! Your colour scheme worked so well too xx
