A wintery weekend.......and a little bit of Crafty Individuality

Morning all! Hows the big freeze?
 
They werent kidding when they said this week was going to be a cold one were they?
Personally I love the snow ...... the big powdery huge Canadian kind not the half a job stuff that grinds this country to a holt!!!
 
Having said that I am taking today to chill and relax, watching the snow fall across the fields and schedule a couple of posts as this weekend is going to be busy 
 
I know this is a wee bit late nearly 3 weeks into January - but I thought I would share one of my christmas makes with you. Easily adaptable for any time of year !!!
This box card is super simple to make and can very easily be upsized/downsized accordingly and was passed on to me by the lovely Maria Simms (check out her great blog Inkymits !)
 
On this card I used some fabulous 12 x 12 papers - a real obsession of mine as the several overflowing boxes in the craft room bare testament too!! - to decorate the cover and spine of the box card then stamps from Crafty individuals and Clarity and the whole thing was given a suspended look by using acetate tabs
 
 
.....and heres the finished article! I believe it was well recieved .... least I hope it was!!!
 
Anyway off  I go class today and then a busy weekend of DT work for Splodge's next show on Thursday. Hope you can tune in!!
 
Crafty hugs for now .... stay safe and warm!!
