Ha! Ha! Bet that title got ya going, especially as the weather is so GORGEOUS here in the UK at the moment. My hubby thinks I'm barmy making Christmas cards when spring/summer is just on it's way, but I did PROMISE myself I'd get ahead this year, and up until now have only made one card - which is just not good enough, lol.
Anyway, today's card features a little lovely from LOTV. I coloured her pre-Christmas 2010, but just never got around to making her into a card, so when I came across her the other day, it was just the spur I needed to get stuck in. The papers are actually from a freebie pad that I got with a magazine a couple of years ago. I've then backed them with plain red, and white card - whoops! Don't know how I've suddenly gone all italics, lol. The doily is my new one from Cheery Lynn, I think you'll be seeing a lot of it!! There's a bit of white border cut with a Doo Hickey die. Snowflakes are Marianne D and Martha Stewart. Ribbon from stash, and that's about it really.
Hope I've maybe inspired one or two of you to start a bit of forward thinking??
