Hi! this is so pretty Coops,really love the colours/papers and such a sweet image.

So so sweet. I love this one. Such a beautiful scene...i can't wait for the snow to come but the -30 is a killer. I got smart this yr. I colored a couple full pages of images and got them color copied and made a few of each one to have enough to send out. I only get about 3 that are the same with the same image but i send out more than 60 a yr so i gotta do what i gotta do right?? tfs
