a lovely background and the houses do look Christmassy....I just walked to Leigh while the sun was out for a bit of vitamin topping up lol xx
Gorgeous Sue! You've made this wonderful image into a beautiful Christmas car. Aren't these images fun? Was very torn between this and the one I ended up with!
Have a lovely weekend
xx
GOgeous! LOve how you've made them into individual coloured houses, with the pop of red and cute yellow doors. I've some of the Frantage powder will try it for snow brilliant idea.

Hi this is a stunning card. I love it. Take care. Hugs Jackie
Oh its so fun Sue, all the pretty coloured homes look sweet, a slight touch of Balamory..love it..
Didn't know they were to strike for the whole of December, best ask my lovely postie, Ian, he will hopefully give me the 'gen', told him they should do a go slow but looks like a stike is on the cards...xxxxx
Your card is fabulous Aunty Sue, I love all the bright, festive colours. The large snowflake swag along the top of the card is awesome and I like all the addition snowflakes you embossed as well. Fabulous!
Cheers,
Beccy
