Happy Saturday everyone! I hope you are enjoying this first Saturday in February! We weathered Snowjam2014 and are still here to tell about it! :) It was quite the adventure. My husband's commute home was quite tense as cars crawled and slid. His 45 minute commute ended up taking him 4 hours! Which in no way set any records in Atlanta. Most would say he got off easy as many were stuck in their cars 12 - 21 hours!
All the excitement is behind us now and things are getting back to normal just in time for this week's Speedy Fox & Friends Challenge. This week we are going to use Gesso or white paint on our cards. I chose one of my favorite techniques: Gesso Resist to create an interesting backdrop for the swans.
For the inside I kept it very simple with one swan and a sentiment.
