Hello, and welcome to 2026!
I have a card today that fits a few challenges. I was wanting to play at Inkspirational #357 - Cold, and then I saw the colors that Bonnie chose at Color Hues - Red & Gray, and it all went from there! The only issue? What sweet image should I use today?!

| Sweet, huh? |
I started with the PB little girl ,but I needed something for her to be reaching for and my mind went straight to bird. This set doesn't have one, so I had to find one that was the appropriate size and had the same approximate line width. While this one fit the bill, it also really pushed the color choice to be the perfect option!
The images were colored with Copics, small snowdrifts masked and ink blended, then a little WoS for sparkle. The image was cut down, added to a gray fog cs, and the sentiment I already had in my stash -- perfect! While my photos leave much to be desired (I need a PS lesson, or ten or some more sunshine through the winter), I'm happy with this card.
And since I used another NBUS product, I'll also be adding this to Darnell's gallery!
Supplies:
PB - Snow Folks
AE - Festive Wreath (cardinal)
PTI - In The Meadow dies
KS - Fany Scalloped Rectangle die
Splb - Merry Messages pp
Well, we're off to the weekend now, and I hope you've had a great start to 2026! Thank you for your visit, I appreciate you!
Hugs,

Super cute! Great looking card!
This is lovely. Grey is such an underrated colour and the red really makes it pop. The pb stamps are so cute. Happy New Year. Hugz
This is so cute, TK, and that cardinal was the perfect choice to go along with the adorable girl. I'm glad you found it among your stash. I have a hard time with line width and proportions sometimes but you aced it!
How sweet is this card! Just adorable 😀
Awww, she's just adorable, TK and so is her little friend! This is a sweet card!
Lovely and sweet winter scene, TK. Happy New Year.
TK adding the bird was perfect for your sweet little girl. I love the way you created the snowbanks and added just a hint of shimmer and shine. Fog is one of my favorite greys and works perfectly for your beautifully colored image. I love how you propped your card amongst the festive greenery, too!
