The snow is still causing havoc here in Scotland. Never thought I'd hear myself say this but I want it to go away now!! I am no longer looking at it thinking how pretty it looks i'm thinking that'll be another two hours of my time clearing snow in my drive today.
The schools are back on tomorrow after nearly 2 weeks unless I get a text in the morning to say otherwise. Speaking of texts, I actually received one from the school today asking if I would bring my own shovel and help dig at the school!!
Anyway after defrosting my fingers and my bum after coming in from the snow i can now sit down and write this post.
This is my second christmas card I have made, yes my second lol and it is also my dt card over at abc challenge. This week the theme is jewels and gems and I know you guys just love a bit of bling, right?? So pop on over and join in the fun also please if you can visit the dt's individual blogs as they would love to hear from you too.
The picture is a bit rubbish with all this snow so will try and get a better one soon.

Gorgeous card, Clare - love that stamp and the colours!
ReplyDeleteOur school is open tomorrow too, but Lou's not going cos it's not safe - can't get there safely, huge icicles, only a few narrow paths cut, limited food available, .... etc!
Take care, Susie x
