Where's the sunshine gone :0( not a happy bunny

Well after our fabby weekend away,  my sore bits aren't quite as sore today thankfully, it was driving me mad. Anyway wheres the blinkin' sun gone? Its bloomin' freezing here today, I got my fluffy boot slipper thingys back on because my little toes are soooooo cold...

Anyways on with my lastest card, I thought a Christmas card was quite apt for the weather today...lol I know its only cold but the difference from the weekend is unbelievable...


I tried everywhere last year to get this little man, but I only found him at a silly price. But just after Christmas I found him on Glitterpot (they've still got a sale on some stamps are only £3) and he was half price, think I only paid £2.25 or something like that.



I used two of the last colours I brought,  for his jacket, &  I think they are yummy together.

What an adorable card!

Susan Says (Stupid Stuff) said...

Oh this is gorgeous, just a touch cute but with strong enough backing papers not to scare away any men in the recipients family. Lol, I tend to have trouble with that, I usually end up with unused Christmas cards because I've made them too cutesie :D
Thanks very much for joining in with our Furry Friends challenge at OSAAT, don't forget to check back tomorrow for the new challenge and good luck! :D
