The groundhog may not have seen his shadow, but it would be VERY difficult to tell anyone in Chicago that we will have an early spring. We just had our 3rd worse snowstorm ever, I live in the NW suburbs so I only got 17 inches of snow and only had 4 ft drifts, other areas received 20 inches plus. Now we are having dangerous temperatures below zero, with windchills in the negative teens or twenties.
The positive side is that it is beautiful outside, we all had a family day off, once my sons dug us out they had a blast outside, my husband was riding his snowmobile everywhere since all streets were closed until mid afternoon. I stayed in and scrapbooked all day. But I'm so ready for spring!

This image is perfect for today, For the Birds Snowman is by faith at Designed2Delight, (Badge on right) Colored with my Copics, I used liquid applique for my fur and aded lots of stickles. I made my flower with the new McGill flower punches, so easy and fun. I made some roses also since I was playing today
