Good morning, Blogger buddies!
The winter season is fast approaching along with the wind and chilly temperatures. It's the time of year when I think of being comfy and cozy in front of a warm fire with a cup of hot chocolate in hand.
You know..."Snuggle Up, Buttercup!"

Authentique "Wintery" Collection
Here's my snuggle up inspiration...
Nothing like Nat King Cole's crooning voice to bring a warm and comfy feeling on a cold winter's day.
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos...
This 6" x 6" card base of green is layered with papers from Photoplay's Mad Plaid Christmas Collection. The awesome cable stitch embossed layer was made with a folder from Stampin' Up. This folder makes me swoon! I simply love the cable stitch embossing. The journaling card and hot chocolate cup sticker are also from the Mad Plaid collection. I embellished around the journaling card with a few die cut pine branches, twine and stick pins. The wood chip word, "Cheer" and a couple of wooden buttons complete the design.
From my stash...

I hope my card has inspired you to play along with us!

I LOVE this card with all the pretty details and the sentiment is fabulous!! And here is that SU Cable Knit folder again that I just 'have to have'!! Maybe Santa will bring it...hah!! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
This is AWESOME Vic and absolutely perfect! Oh yes, we have already had our fireplace on a few times and I just love that Nat song!! Beautiful creation ... thanks! Big Hugs and Happy Thanksgiving!
How sweet and warm! Great details and love the embossed panel!
So very cozy looking and so much to love, including those wooden buttons. I'm mad for plaid and this looks like it must be a lovely collection of colors and patterns. I'm also mad for that cable knit embossing folder that several of my teamies used for this challenge. Beautiful and thoughtfully designed card, Vicki! I hope you enjoy a wonderful Thanksgiving Day!
Such wonderful layers. I love how much texture and dimension you have on this card. Fabulous design, Vicki.
Lovely embossing folder perfect for your brilliantly designed card.x
Love your fabulous plaid and cozy card!!
Great minds think alike with the sweater embossing folder. I love what you have done with it here. That plaid background is perfect, and I really like the kraft card stock. Also love the way you have treated the greeting....well done!
I love this challenge and the mood board for it. Such warm and cozy cards are created. I love your texture and that sentiment they are awesome.
Beautiful plaid background! And I love that sweater cable knit texture, so cozy! Your layers are fabulous, the sentiment and Cheer, the pretty green sprigs and that yummy hot toddy! And I will thank you now, as I know I will be singing that song all day long....complete in Nat King Cole fashion LOL
