Lovely card, Doreen! Your colored image is such a pretty focal point to the black and white background. I just wanted to let you know that you will want to go back and re-link your entry to the proper post. The Let It Snow challenge requires use of a Sassy Studio Designs image so I think you were looking for our Christmas in July challenge. Thanks for joining us at SSD! :)
