I love the layers of patterned paper, and what a happy bunch of snowmen. It rather amuses me that the Spanish folk around here use snowflakes in their Christmas decorations, (They tend not to send cards), when I am guessing that half the village have never seen any snow! Kate x

Jean said...

A really cute bunch of snowmen, and lovely background papers too.
