Still Snowing
It started snowing yesterday and continued through the night, and we are still enjoying flakes falling outside the office window. Our cats are particularly put out by the weather because it's been raining/snowing for about a week now without any change and they are quite desperate to go do their hooligan business outside. But it's cold and wet and miserable out there, so instead the cats just meow piteously at the window.
I'm sure we'll see the sun again at some point, and for now we're just enjoying the snow outside and the cozy feeling inside (as long as we don't leave the office where the heater is).
A few site updates. A new weekly challenge has been posted all about paper clips. And if you didn't catch this tutorial to help you use a paper clip realistically, that might be of some help! There is also our ongoing Superlatives Challenge, as well as the January Challenge to help you get those daily projects done.
I've been using the month of January to organize my thoughts and figure out how to spend my time and what I want to get done. I have various projects to work on that I'll be sharing here on the blog, but if there are any topics or questions you'd like me to cover here in the blog, leave them below in the comments.

About Me
Hi There! I’m Marisa Lerin and you’ll see me around at DigitalScrapbook.com a lot. I started this site in 2010 soon after I discovered a new love in digital scrapbooking. DigitalScrapbook.com has gone through some significant changes since that time and it’s grown into this lovely community site you are seeing now. I am daily surprised by the turn of life’s events that has led me down this path. If you're new to the site, welcome! Here are a few tidbits about me that I hope will help you get to know me better!
I’m originally from Minnesota, USA, but spent a good chunk of my childhood living abroad (in Bolivia and Hong Kong). I returned to Minnesota to attend university, got married and then moved overseas again (Korea, then Jordan and 1 year of traveling). My designs are heavily influenced by these many nomadic years. I am currently back in the USA, now living in the great state of Oregon!
I have no official training for what I’m doing, since I decided very wisely (haha) to study physics in university. I am always learning new things about digital scrapbooking, and this community has been immensely helpful for that!
If I manage to stop digital scrapbooking you will probably find me watching TV, reading or baking. I also enjoy writing for the blog here at DigitalScrapbook.com where I talk about whatever happens to be catching my fancy at the moment.

Love this photo :) Here in Germany it's snowing too :)
It must be almost like being in MN again. Ironically, it looks like you have about the same amount of snow there as we do here. :)
Next time I'm sitting under the airconditioner trying to keep cool, I shall look at this photo!!!
I would like snow. Hot here, but nothing like the heatwave Australia has at the moment
It started snowing where i live (Utah) yesterday at 4pm and this is how much we have now...

And its still snowing!
Neat picture. I am so ignorant about other parts of the world. I did not know it snows there. I thought it was mostly dry and hot no matter what the season.
It's like an education here! Thanks!
My kids are jealous! We've just been getting rain.
meh all we have is rain! rain and mud! i would actually take some snow
Ahh.... snow! I would love to build a snowman! It's so hot here right now, I am in shorts & a tee!
I am so jealous, not for the cold but for the beauty of the snow! Love the pic! Thanks for sharing Marisa.
That window is just amazing, love the ironwork :)
Thanks for the tip! Going to go read the tutorial now.
Great picture! :D
Love the cat looking out at the snow...my cat does the same thing! Enjoy the snow while you can!
:) So you´re really having the snow you wished for! Great!
