Beautiful card Sandra. I really like the snow border. Gotta look for that one and get it. Think I'll head over to the challenge and submit a card as I've been getting into the Christmas spirit this week. It will be a bit tough for you this year, but my own experience leads me to believe it will be easier as time goes by. Hugs,
