Thank You Cards Using CTMH Chantilly and Cricut Artiste Cartridge

Hi to all you wonderful crafters in blog land.  I hope everyone is doing well.  The weather has been hot and humid here. I always wonder what the weather is like in other countries.  I know there are winters when we are warm and summers when we are cold; but I would love to hear from some of you living anywhere - US or overseas.  I am interested in the kind of weather you are having and what season you prefer.
 
I created these Thank You cards several months ago; but hadn't had time to post them.  I used my favorite CTMH paper for these.  There are so many colors in the Chantilly paper pack that I am amazed at what you can create with it.  Here are the last 3 cards I created with the Chantilly paper packet.  The other 2 that I created were on February 28th.  These five cards demonstrate several of the papers in the Chantilly packet; but not all of the pages have been used.

  10. A lovely set of cards. Saw them on MIM.
    Talking about the weather, here in New Zealand its winter and last night we had our coldest night.
    Some of the roads are closed with snow. We dont get snow where I live, at the moment its raining.
    Why is the winter sooooo long and the summer flies by. xx

Sometimes it is warm here and winter in just the US; but I have always wondered what it was like in other places. Have a fabulous week and stay warm. Hugs, Gloria
