Well we are almost half thru with February. Spring is not far away. (Can you tell - I'm not a fan of cold weather - LOL)
We just had our February stamp club meeting and the theme card is a shaped card. Now, IMHO that means not a rectangle or square card.
A little back story on my card -Many years ago I bought a plain (bigger) chipboard puzzle piece and decorated it. However I never gave it away. Glad I didn't, because, I traced that puzzle shape onto white CS and made a new creation. The puzzle piece is roughly 6 3/4" square including those 2 pieces that stick out on the two sides, but it really doesn't look that large.
Here is my card I made for stamp club
