Hello!
Happy Wednesday! I hope you're having a great week so far! We've had a chinook blow in so the temperatures have increased and it's lovely! I don't love the chinook headaches that accompany said temperature change but they don't last long for us!!

We have a great new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches today! Our hostess this week is the lovely Karren Johnson! Karren's cards are always so beautiful so please head over to her blog and give her some love!
I popped into the local paper store here and saw this cute little gnome die from Spellbinders and couldn't resist him! I absolutely love gnomes! Not as much as I love grizzly bears but grizzly bear dies are hard to come by! I decided I would make this guy a cute little Valentine's Day gnome. I had some old SU Valentine's Day paper from years ago that I grabbed to make this card. I had originally made him in red but my oldest told me he looked like a Christmas gnome!
Supplies:
Cardstock: Hammermill Coverstock White, Melon Mambo, Early Espresso, Granny Apple Green, Petal Pink, Pink Foil (didn't photograph well at all)

Thought I'd share some of the pics from our hike on Friday. It was a beautiful day - despite being -20C. The sun was shining and we had bluebird skies! The hike itself sucked and might have made me scream at some trees!
I hope you have an amazing day!
