Best One Yet

Hi, all! Hope your week is off to a fab start! Our furnace broke down last night (of course, on one of the coldest nights of the year), but we're back in business now. I had coffee with some of my girls this morning, too, so that's raised my post-holiday spirits!

I had a bit of time to whip up a card this afternoon. I'm trying to send a few New Year's cards to make up for the lack of Christmas cards I sent out...

I combined two challenges: Laura's Sketch 42 and the Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger--black and white with a bit of green. Those Primas are brand new today--thanks to my buddy, Elizabeth, for sending them my way!

Have a great week!

Stamps: Signature Greetings (PTI)
Paper: Basic Black, PTI white, DCWV glittered dp

Ink: Basic Black
Accessories: Prima flowers, Doodlebug glittered brads, scalloped edge punch

Bloomin' typical to break on the coldest night! Glad to hear you're OK now and slightly warmer!
I like the idea of sending New Year's cards and that sentiment is perfect for it!
Great take on the sketch - though I'm sure you know if you put green on any card it's a winner with me!
Have a fab last week off!
