Good morning all
Hands up who's seen the sun this year - not me lol. This has to be the wettest most miserable, grey start to any year ever!! - and it's getting colder too.
We had a lovely start to the year with a New Years Day wedding- the daughter of our very best friends. But even that was a grey and miserable day, I got hardly any photographs and not a single decent one of me (nothing new there!!) - it was just so dark that my black dress looked like a v neck jumper and my flouncy facinator/hat was like a shadow on my head!! - Still it was a lovely day and a very happy way to start off the year
It's also time to kick off the new year at
Moving Along with the Times

Me!! Me!! Me!! We had a sunny day yesterday...alas today is grey and gloomy again!! Love your card, I must try to play along as I love dots xx
I think this is a great use of dots and snowflakes, it's cheerful and sophisticated at the same time. I love that little sentiment as well, that's awesome. x Jessie

Really like this card Judith. Love the image and all your dots.
We hardly saw the sun in Dec. but since the temps have dropped below freezing the days have been bright and sunny..and I'll take that over mild and grey anyday! hugs, Pat xx
Love James the bear!! He's such a cutie. Gorgeous card and love the colours. This weather reminds me of Larry Grayson, who always used the opening statment 'What a grey day!!' Hugs, Carol S.xx

I love this gorgeous big card...lots of space to show off the pretty DP layers and the super cute James bear! Those snowflake die cuts are fabulous too :-)
It's a shame the weather is so awful but I'm glad you still had a wonderful time at the wedding.
