I love the orchid room at the greenhouse at any time, but in the winter it really seems magic. Credits: -template: Jan. Copycat Challenge template by Cynthia based on 'Celebrate Happy Days' scrappydonna...

Congrats Lilja and Scrapolina! You both have such good looking pages for week 1. Happy to have everyone here.

Another superb composition and photo. The inner frame is lovely going under and over the wings.

Sabine, it looks wonderful! I'm sure we'd all love to join in. And how you do your project is entirely up to you. I finally bit the bullet and put together my week 1.

Just chiming in from the frigid Midwest! We got down to at least -11 last night and the house is cold. Had a scare in the night when we woke up with the power off. Thankfully it was off less than half an hour, but even though our furnace is gas, it needs electricity to run. Keep warm everyone!

Your beautiful page seems to say it all about this frigid, snowy weather!

Beautiful! Love the dark border, text around it and the tail extraction. Just can't determine the species!

I went back to my "winter" avi but look out for Ellen's change of attire! :fear:

Julie, the texture is wonderful and it is SO beautiful. Sure wish I were there instead of awaiting sub-zero temps tomorrow. :)

Diane, the pages look wonderful and festive. I see the day number as well as date on the photos now. Must be a lot of work going back to add that but would be easy in the beginning. Sounds like we're all trying to modify our approach for 2014.

Diane, I'm still not moving on printing 2013, but it shouldn't be too hard. I'm not going to make the changes you are. I do want to make some changes for 2014, but haven't quite got it worked out. I do have four very snowy photos for week 1 though.

Chris, you look so beautiful, even happy! Wonderful page with journaling accomplished with the words. Great advice for all of us too.

WelcOme to the O! It felt strange when I first arrived in 2010, but I grew to love it here. Such nice people, wonderful and varied designs, and great challenges.

Beautifully done! Love the colors.
