Today is H's last day at school and tomorrow is an inset day, so we are going to walk Whisper, get H's hair cut and then chill out on the sofa watching 'Mr Popper's Penguins' (that i bought for £3 the other day), on Saturday H and I are going to 'Chessington World Of Adventures' for their Santa experience with some friends.

Aww Sam this is totally adorable! You've made a lovely background for this cute snowman! I just saw your comment on Susan's blog about the stamps to match the Spellbinder's ornament dies. I think these may be the ones you mean:

and I am almost ashamed to say I think I may even have them lurking in a drawer!! Hugs Susan x
The snowman looks so sweet placed against your wintry background Sam and like the purplues against the frosty colours.
Thanks for joining our Winter Wonderland challenge at Stamping Sensations, your card fits perfectly.

Wow, this is gorgeous Sam! Love how you did the background - and that snowman is one of my favourite PB stamps.
Our weather has been very changeable - cold yesterday, warm today - and we have had ALOT of humid, icky weather in the past few weeks which is unusual. Melbourne is known as: "4 seasons in one day" - and that is definitely true.
