A Gloomy Day Made for Snuggling and Crafting

Today is one of those "gloomy" winter days here in Las Vegas.  I know that people tend to visit Las Vegas, and that many of them have the preconceived, and wrong, idea that the weather here is always sunny and beautiful.  That's simply not the case.  Much like everywhere else in the world, we do experience "winter", or at least our version of winter.  What we occasionally get is a day like today; one with scattered showers, gloomy clouds, and a cold breeze.  We're all cozy inside, and think that's where we will stay today - all snuggled up on the couch or near the craft table.

I made this card using a beautiful line of papers and notions from Authentique.  I added some seam binding, machine stitching, the adorable new Toggle Buttons from Prima, some Bo Bunny gems, two 7 Gypsies tags, a Recollections flower, two Maya Road stick pins and a piece of Girl's Paperie patterned paper on the background.  The reason I incorporated the 7 Gypsies vintage tags is because I am entering this card in the challenge this week at Simon Says Stamp where they are asking you to use tags.

I'm also entering the Authentique Challenge since most of my supplies were Authentique products.
