Hi Donna,

Pretty cold this neck of the woods too. We had a slight dusting of snow on Saturday which has just made everything slippery.

Love your card and how you've done the sentiment on the computer.

Keep warm.

Oh Donna, this is absolutely too cute! I just love your polka dotted paper - it is scrummy all over and the border punches really add that special touch! I love the flower and the heart buttons - how very cute! Ooh...this image is just incredibly cute! WOW! Oh, the organza bow is great - I just love organza ribbon. I'm like you - I LOVE Christmas. I don't have kids but I still get into this holiday all the way! Freezing and now snow...that's how it feels here! LOL! But I think your place is much colder.
