warm winter wishes...

Happy Monday!

Unfortunately, it is back to the 'ole Salt Mines for me today...I tell you, having a 3-day weekend is sheer bliss...but alas, I have a mortgage to pay....

Today's winter card is brought to you by Cosmo Cricket , A Muse and Caardvarks!

I was inspired by Paige's latest challenge...Snowflakey Winter Cards. I love being able to play with Jolly by Golly...I even stitched it up with pink thread! I teamed it it up with the sweet A Muse winter sentiment...pink, poms and glitter...what could be better?

Yesterday was a great start to my week...

I was thrilled to see my Happy Valentine's Day Girlfriend!! made the Fab 5 over at 2S4Y!

I went to see Sherlock Holmes yesterday...sheesh, the matinee is only $6....it could very well become a Sunday Morning ritual..anywho's I enjoyed the movie, I find Robert Downey Jr. very amusing....have a super week peeps...

Come on back tomorrow when I 'officially' start over on Jacksonbelle's Design Team...you won't want to miss out on all the fun:)

I saw your Fab Five win on 2S4Y yesterday! Congratulations girl! Sooo well deserved! And why you're not on the team I will never know! You soooo should be! But what I didn't know was that you're now a Jacksonbelle girl!! Woot! Woot! Now that is something to shout from the roof tops! :) I'm soooo excited and happy for you!
