Good Morning,

Well the title says it all, we have the white stuff here today all around on the hills, there was a light dusting on my car last night but that is clear this morning, the sun is shining but it feels so cold after the last few weeks of mild weather.  I think it will be crafting today, it is our eldest son's birthday tomorrow so I need to get a card sorted before seeing him. 

  We had a lovely day yesterday we went to the Trafford Centre, had a look round then went to the cinema to see the new James Bond film "Spectre", really enjoyed it and we had a super Chinese meal afterwards.

Now onto today where we have a new challenge at My Time to Craft and this week our challenge is:

Let it Snow

My card is an easel card but I couldn't get a good picute of it with the light being so bad so settled for just a picture of the front.
