Yesterday the first snow of the season began and it forgot to stop. This morning there is a blanket of snow covering everything. It’s beautiful, but I still had to dig the car out to take the lad to the really, really last cross-country meet of the year. They keep winning, so they keep having to go to one more meet. This one is the last meet of the year. The state finals. I hope they win this one, too. I don’t know what it’s doing in Boston today, but I hope they don’t have to run through 6 inches of snow. It sure was fun being the only awake person in the neighborhood digging the car out at 6:30 this morning!

But since it’s snowing and thoughts are now definitely in the winter mode, I was thinking of winter designs and made a few odds and ends yesterday. I finally decided that I like this design and just wanted to simplify it a little. But not before making a background that I like a lot—it’s just too busy for my current blog design. So, I’ll toss it up here in case anyone else would like it. If you want to see what it looks like on a page, click the square o’ snowflakes.

Also...you can find the snowflake font here. Free.
