Floral Mason Jar Cards using Gossamer Blue January Bits & Pieces Kit

Well hello there.  It's so cold here that my hands will not warm up.  A perfect day to do a little blogging but I'll keep it sweet and short and just let you enjoy the photos.  Today I'm up at the Gossamer Blue blog, showing you how I used the January Bits & Pieces Kit to create some fresh new cards.  Hop over there to read about my watercoloring process and to see a few more photos.  

Here's some of the Bits & Pieces Kit.  It's sold out already and I can see why...always a favorite because it usually has a stamp set and a 6 x 6 pad of beautiful patterned paper.  Stamper's delight. 

A little of my watercoloring in process.  Oh how these palettes make me happy.  And stamps.  And pretty paper.  

A little fussy cutting because sometimes handmade and just getting back to the basics is best.

My finished cards.  Aren't they like fresh little blossoms sprouting up in this cold, wintry season? Well, to me anyway because I miss my gardens and warm weather terribly right now.  

Matching envelopes because matching envelopes make you so happy when you get one in the mail.  With your name on it.  Just for you.

Okay, fingers will be falling off soon so I must head back to my cozy fireplace.  Hope you are warm and wintry...or warm and summery.  Either way, stay nice and warm.  Enjoy the cards!
