Hello Friends! We have cool temperatures in Southern CA; but nothing as cold as some of you have in the US. The snow looks awesome until you have to drive in it, right? Stay warm and drive safe.
I purchased this gorgeous new digital stamp a couple days ago; and it is currently half price. It is Ching-Chou Kuik "Purple Balloon". Most of you know that I love the color purple; so I had to buy it right away. LOL! I decided to keep the color purple for the balloon and found some retired CTMH Make Waves paper that had purple flowers on it. My other favorite color is pink; so my paper has both. I felt this card called for a bow and flowers. LOL!
