Back to card making

(I did not realize it had been so long since I posted here. I have had two successful cataract surgeries and look forward to June when I hope to be finished with doctor checkups for them. It is amazing to see when I am lying in bed in the morning.)

I have also been able to get back making cards - I managed to make one for Mother's Day, a birthday card, and one more for the Jingle Belles challenge, shown here.
We were to follow a sketch and use "bling" - I put Stickles (glitter glue) on the white snowflakes around the  text, although it does not show in the picture.
