CPS 145 and More St. Nick

This is almost too hard to believe but I managed to get a CPS card done in the same week that the sketch is posted!! I am motivated by the fact that I "need" a few cards to give away for Christmas and that I want to use up the St. Nick BoBunny kit! That will be a first for me too: to use up a kit of any kind, lol. I also think I will stash away some of these cards for next year's United Way auction!

So with my new camera, I took this picture with flash and all! It's either that or wait until Saturday when sunlight and I are home at the same time. If you think I'm being dramatic, here are the actual statistics for Dec 10, 2009: sunrise 7:41 AM; sunset 4:31 PM. Oh, it's depressing!

And speaking of glittery snow, I think we got 8 inches overnight. This Shanghai girl does not like it here in Minnesota!

I believe you did mention that during the winter you became more & more dramatic... LOL! The high temp here today was 20. I'm guessing that seems balmy to you, but I was freezing outside & no I wasn't still wearing my pajama pants & socks. LOL!

Totally adorable card! At least when it's that cold & that little daylight, you don't feel guilty being inside scrapping, right? You always inspire...

Big hugs...
