Happy New Year Everyone! Whew! The past week was extremely busy. My brother and I took our mom to CA for a quicky trip (2 1/2 days) to see her sister and our cousins we hadn't seen in a LONG, LONG time. It was truly a whirlwind AND FUN trip.

For Xmas, I made a bunch of cards for gifts. Here's one of them. You may not be able to see it but I used the Texturz Plate with big dots on the blue paper. I love dots.

Supplies:
