Morning all
What a truly DISMAL week we've had here, cold wet AND windy! Not great, still, Black Friday today - how many of you will be shopping today? Not me, I'm off to a craft retreat this afternoon and leaving hubby behind so .. can't vouch for whether he will be!
So, if you normally visit my blog of a Saturday to check my make for LIM ... as I'll be away there will be no chance to check the LIM challenge OR to make a card for it. There will be a blog post from me though, as I have a GDTM post to go "live" on Saturday but my next regular "challenge post" will be Monday - you can expect pix from the weekend so you might want to make yourself a coffee before paying that visit! See you then!

In the meantime, a little crafting to share with you all ....

I adore your sweet snowman Kathy and have a great time at your craft retreat and I look forward to seeing the photos. x
Cute as Kathy. Looks like that wee snowman really needs that I'm guessing Hot Chocolate with marshmallows. Nice touch of bling too. Thanks for sharing with us at ATSM.
This is such a sweet card. I hope you had a fab time at the retreat x
Sweet snowman card mate! Know you'll have a great time at the retreat.
Hugs, Sarn xxx
Sorry to hear you're having such dismal weather where you live. One good thing is it makes it easier to sit inside and create wonderful Christmas cards like yours. Such a cute little snowman with his warm cuppa chocolate. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week Kath. Fun card!
A sweet snowman and a sweet sentiment for a special person. Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday.
