This winter has been quite magical with all the snow, ice and sun we've been having. I've taken thousands of photographs and I haven't even looked through most of them! How gorgeous is the world when it's covered in winter!! Yeah, I know, you think I'm nuts! lol


In the late autumn I decided to defy my neighbours' wishes and hang my suet feeder back up. It has paid off, I've seen at least three Woodpeckers this winter! This isn't the best shot, but I'm excited to even have a shot at all!

That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments.

Just out of curiosity, has anyone noticed a problem with the 'publish' button on comment boxes? I'm finding that it takes a long time for the comment to actually publish after I hit the button.

  2. Oh my, how beautiful is this?? Your card is simply divine Pamellia! I adore the soft colour palette and the lace!! Aaah!! The lace .. it is to die for! Looove those Scrapiniec chippies too .. so delicate and pretty!!
    I am glad you are enjoying your winter .. it sounds wonderful! Wish you could send some of that snow down our way! We are fully into summer here and it is hot!!! It will be 41 degrees the next few days. That's 41 centigrade, by the way. I think that's about 105 in Fahrenheit ..like I said, HOT!! Will be sitting very close to the airconditioner, that's for sure!
    I thought it was just my computer playing up with the publish button but, yes, I am having the same problem. It takes ages to actually publish a comment. Most frustrating!! Have a wonderful day my friend! hugs xx

  3. Your card is so beautiful, stunning lace and layers, love the delicate wooden flourish!
    Can't say I like snow (because it would be a fib!!) but I can enjoy the beauty of it in a photo! :))
    I have been told that the delay in publishing comments is a Blogger problem...

  5. How elegant and delicate is this, Pamellia!! A perfect wedding card, I think! Stunning mix of lace and layers and just LOVE the delicate tinkle bells and the oval in the center!
    So glad that you are enjoying winter and the snow, and such cutie in your photos, as always I smile seeing them and laugh reading the words you put in their mouths!:D
    I'm too much occupied with my work, in this time of the year, to enjoy weather or country life, sadly... :( I would have some vacation and free time for me!!! :)

  6. Another spectacular card Pamellia, I love the frame, the little flowers look just like Lily of the valley. Yes, publish is being a pain, check out Floral Fantasies blog, Brenda has posted a useful tip xx

    1. Thanks Sarah. Unfortunately the tip Brenda published is only for changing the format of how the comment section works on your own blog. That makes it great for the people who visit me, but doesn't change a thing when I'm commenting on other people's blogs. Thanks anyway though.

  9. Oh my goodness, stunning!! Wow!! I have such a hard time leaving comments for you because I don't want to scroll away from the pictures :) The card is amazing!! The wood embellishments are so beautiful!! The layers and lace are so gorgeous!! I love the soft colors, too!! Absolutely spectacular, Pamellia!!

    Your nature shots are so beautiful!! The birds are gorgeous!! I love the shot of your trail friend!! And Neddie is an adorable!! I need to start taking more winter shots. I have a family of bluebirds living here that look amazing against the white snow. I also have a family of deer that come every day to eat and one lone turkey. I just haven't been motivated to snap away when it's so darn cold outside. I hope you are having a wonderful week!! Big hugs, sweet friend :)

  10. Oh, I forgot to add that I have the same problem when I hit publish. It's been that way for a while now for me. It's annoying. I'm afraid to click off the page in case it doesn't publish the comment. I hope Blogger fixes it soon :/

  11. Hi Pamellia,
    as usual your card is very stunning and beautifully designed.
    Lots of lovely tule and wonderful elements that are so pretty.
    It must take you ages to create.
    As always your photos are very beautifully captured, and the wording is brilliant.
    I always look forward to seeing your creations and your wonderful photos.
    Yes blogger is taking ages to publish so it takes ages before you can move on to another comment.
    I usually wait till the dot moveing left and right stops, and then I know my comment is there, but it is a pain that's for sure.
    Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

    Yes - things have slowed down, and I have changed to a popup box for my comments and it works more quickly. I learnt about it over here: http://stamping-fantasies.blogspot.co.nz/2018/01/recent-problems-publishing-comments.html
    Hope this helps

  26. Yes, I'm late to the party AGAIN! You've created a stunning card, AGAIN! I love the delicate laces and wood chippie! Squeal! Your paper layers and bow are scrumptious! LOVE!

    Great to see your winter shots of the wildlife! Especially the shy woodpecker! Did I tell you I got to see an owl the other night?

    Yep, blogger publishing had been a nightmare, pared with my slow computer, I simply gave up commenting unless I had to. We have a new ISP now, and things are MUCH BETTER! Now if I can just get myself on a schedule... Hugs!

  28. Such a pretty card - and a taste of things to come with that charming Scrapiniec frame! The snowy squirrel pictures put me in a state of complete aaaahh-ness - I hope it's a little warmer for them now.

  29. You have some of the most gorgeous embellishments, not to mention all of that super pretty lace. Of course, without them you would not be able to make these beautifully feminine cards. This one is a real stunner.

    I adore all of these snowy squirrels, they all look so cute.
