      Hi Mary J

      Oh my, what an absolutely STUNNING card! Wow! I love the (die cut?) swirly snowflakes.

      Image is just gorgeous too, I love the added sparkle.

      Great pick from you this week too, I just knew you would pick this one. It is a fantastic masculine card.

      Michelle :o)

      I love your creation too sweetie. I have this stamp also, but haven't used it yet. (I'm thinking I've ran out of time now. Lol.)

      Both cards are wonderful. I love the dies you used for the Saturated Canary beauty. The second one I found really amusing. I didn't know you had Hillbillies in the UK. I love the sentiment and the entire card is just stinkin cute!
