FEBRUARY INSIDE AND OUTSIDE !!


February is already more than half gone , and in Denmark this
month was very mild, compared with what we are normally used to see.



But even we did not have much snow it was cozy being inside the warm house,
enjoying a beautiful tulip, and creating a card for a friend. 
The flower is a new stamp I bought  from That`s Crafty ,and the qoute too.


Under is a paper napkin, -and the flower, and butterflys are coloured with Brushos.


As you can see on my photoes ,which are both taken in my garden, the weather 
has been both  "green "-


and "white".


Nothing as beautiful as newfallen snow !!

I hope dear friends, your February has been beautiful ,too
creative and with cozy hours.

Love and hugs
from Dorthe

Beautiful photographs, Dorthe, both the green and the white one! The scenery is stunning and you captured the different moods beautifully. And talking of beautiful, your card is very beautiful indeed. It is lovely to see the rich colours you have used, they warm up the cold days :-). xxx

Hello Dear Friend,
The tulip is beautiful, indeed. The colour is so great. And it matches your card beautifully.
Love the stamp. I am owning a lot of stamps too, but I have not been stamping ,lately. Perhaps I should pick it up again, it's so lovely to do.
Big hug,
Sarina

Hello Dorthe,
Your lovely card has reminded me of how very long it has been since I have played with my stamps. I think it is time to sit down with some paper, ink and a drawer full of stamps. You are always an inspiration.
hugs and JOY,
Kim

Beautiful, cheerful card Dorthe that I'm sure your friend will love. You are so close to the sea you must hear it especially when all's quiet at night - must be lovely. Bright blue skies here today. Nicola x

Hei Dorthe. Det var et nydelig kort du har laget. Bildet ut over havet er vakkert, både med og uten snø.
Ha en fin kveld kjære deg.
Klem

I know most who live here in the desert don't like the snow, but I would love to have your climate here...a little sunshine, mixed with a little snow! Beautiful tulip upstaged by your beautiful creation. And I love that I can see your shadow in the snow photo. Have a LOVELY day, my friend! XOXO

Lovely post, such a pretty card. I should try to do more with my paper crafts. Maybe you have inspired me.
Nature provides us with such pretty surroundings. We just have to take time to notice. Today it is terribly windy and cold. it is -15 with wind chill, so a day to stay in. Enjoy today

Your card is really lovely Dorthe ... fun to see you playing with colors a little different than you sometimes use.
That tulip is a beauty too.
As much as I adore the photo of the sea ... the photo of you and your shadow and the fresh fallen snow is absolutely wonderful!
Happy February days from very cold and snowy Virginia...
(((hugs))) to you dear friend

Your card is beautiful my dear friend! Maybe you were inspired by the pretty tulip's color? they go so well together :)
It has been a little too mild for us here too and we haven't had our usual snow. Your snowy photo made me wish for a little here soon.
sending love...

Beautiful card Dorthe! I agree with Kimberly, time to break out the tub full of stamps and start using them!

Dear Dorthe
I have not visited you for too long so I am happy to be here this evening.
That flower is so beautiful and delicate and then you share PaperArtsy art. You are super quick to have your hands on one of the newly released sets. The flower looks amazing and I like that you created with your own style, using the paper napkin as a background. I do not own this particular set but I do like the stamps, lovely sentiments. Your friend will adore this collage creation, it is special.
Thank You for sharing your art and your beautiful photographs. The snow looks so crisp. I like that the shadow is in the photograph.
Goodnight my friend.
Lynne

Your card with the beautiful paper napkin background is just gorgeous Dorthe, and the photos look amazing too! You live in such a beautiful place!!

Here February has been pretty mild too, we have had no snow to speak of at all this winter....

Createology said...

Lovely card Dorthe Dear. I see your inspiration Tulip is gorgeous! We are certainly having Spring but I do hope Winter comes to us for snow and water table filling. You remind me that I should use my lovely collection of stamps I have. Creative Floral Bliss...

super sødt kort og naturbilleder Dorthe, men du bor jo osse i så smukke omgivelser

Suztats said...

Crisp fresh snow looks so pretty, but not when you have to shovel lots of it, right? I'm glad your February has been mild: ours has been very cold and we're still getting snow. The tulip looks like spring (I hope it hurries up and gets here fast!) and you've created a lovely card, Dorthe. Stay warm.

morkaren said...

Dejligt at se du også laver kort Dorte, og smukke kort endda, og dine foto er fine, der er ikke mange der træder rundt i den fine hvide sne hos dig, her når den at blive godt beskidt inden den smelter. knus morkaren.

Your card looks wonderful in deep and rich purple tones!

Your home island looks like a fairytale to me. Such beautyful landscapes! I have often wondered why I love sea so much. Maybe it´s because my great great grandfather was a German master marines ;-)

Happy weekend to you dorthe!!
