Love is All Around

Good Morning,

We have woken up to snow this morning with the prospect of more to come as it has just started to snow again, it's also been thundering and lightening, nothing is moving in the village (except the steam train) as we live at the bottom of the valley with only two roads out and they are on very steep hills, so could be quite a quiet day.  I think it could be a good day for crafting.  Do keep safe and warm if you have the snow and ice today.

Well on to my card for today which is for our new challenge over at My Time to Craft, this week the challenge is:

Love is All Around

Image - Topper from stash

Papers and Sentiment - LOTV

Heart charm - All About Beads

Ribbon, Pearls
