Hi there! Welcome to the Lawnscaping Winter Blog Hop! We hope you have fun hopping along and find loads of inspiration along the way! You should have come to me by way of the amazing folks (and no secret, some of my favorite peeps), Simon Says Stamp, who also happens to be one of our sponsors!
When I think Winter, I think snow. Unfortunately, I live in Florida and we just don’t see snow. Heck, we barely see cold. It’s December and as I type this, it is 80 degrees. That just isn’t right! So I decided to incorporate snow into my project today… I guess that and the snow falling on this blog will be the only snow I am going to come in contact with! 🙂
You’ve got lots of hoppers to visit so I’ll keep this short!! You have until Sunday, 12/15 at 11:59PM EST to leave comments on the hop participant’s blogs….. There are a ton of prizes to be won (be sure to visit the Lawnscaping blog for a complete list of sponsors and prizes) so be sure to comment on each of the blogs… No copy and pasting pretty please. That’s not fun!
Next up on the hop is the fabulous Isha Gupta

So adorable! Love it!
Such an adorable card Laurel! Love that little scene you’ve designed!
I can’t believe it’s 80 degrees. Today’s high is forecasted to be 41 degrees.
Now that’s one chilled out penguin! Love your card. Although, to be honest I’m not sure I’d miss snow, I’d much rather live somewhere warm!
So cute! Love the combo of patterned papers.
Aww, that is WAY too cute!!!! I love the little penguin guy!! And, heehee, I noticed the falling snow before I read the post – I love it! I’m just north of Chicago, so we get PLENTY of the white COLD stuff. In fact, we’re swimming in it now. Brrrr!!!!
We don’t see snow either, so I have to enjoy everyone else’s snow pics. Cute card.
Such a cute card!!! I love the penguin! Don’t worry about the snow, we don’t see snow very often here in Athens, Greece too but it is so cold these days…not very comfortable…:-/
Love this! Such a cute little penguin!!

Beautiful card, love the penguin! Most of the snow that falls here is unfortunately in its liquid state 🙂
Fun in Florida….Chilly in Chicago, wouldn’t have it any other way! Love the card as always! Thanks for the chance!
I couldn’t imagine living in a place without snow, so happy we have lots of it here in Europe (even though I have to admit, after a couple of months I’m ready again for spring 😉 ).
Adorable card, love the penguin!
Love your card. I can’t believe it is snowing on your blog! Adorable!! ♥

Sweet card! Great colors.
It’s zero C (32 F) degrees right now here in The Netherlands. Hopefully a white Christmas. It’s nice to have the weather change with the seasons.
How cute is this penguin just chilling on that park bench? Great idea! Love the card!
I am a fellow Floridian who left the great white north many years ago – have to say I like to incorporate snow into my card designs but really don’t miss it. 🙂 Very cute card!

That penguin is too cute for words. There’s plenty of snow up here in Toronto. Hope it sticks around for Christmas.
Adorably sweet!
That penguin sitting on the bench is so cute, love the patterned paper in the background with clouds.
I just love your card, and the falling snow. Although I will be seeing the real thing tonight. We are supposed to get 5 inches in the next 2 days!
I really like how you added small strips of the teal pattern paper along the edges of the card and how you handcut the snow for the top of the bench. Great card!
So cute!! He looks adorable sitting on that bench!!
Oh, this little penguin is so cool. Love the cloudy background too!
I love how you made that penguin sitting on the bench! Too cute. You can have some of our snow and cold 😛 -30 with windchill today and it hasn’t stopped snowing in three days!
Lucky you to be in warm weather! Love your little snow scene- that penguin is adorable!
Hee hee. He’s so cute. And those clouds!!!

Laurel this is adorable, Ii love that sweet penguin sitting on the bench.
I love all the layers you used.
Love the penguin and the use of patterned paper for the clouds.
I love the snow falling on your blog! Cute card – the snow all piled up on the bench is just right. I know what you mean about snow…we live outside of Houston, and it does get to freezing, but it never snows that much to stick. At least we don’t have to shovel, right?! 🙂
There is never enough snow for me! I was born in Alberta, Canada and since moving to the states I always feel like I am missing out. Thankfully I live in the Midwest right now so I do get -some- snow. Card is Adorbs! P.s. thanks for organizing everything and responding to my questions!
Cute card! We have snow
here on the ground, want some!

Adorable, great chillin penguin! I love snow…ah I so look forward to snow days spent in pjs crafting! We are expecting a few inches in the am..yay!
