Welcome to the New Years Thank You Card Blog Hop!!!

Hi!  Welcome to the New Years Thank You Card Blog Hop!  Glad you're joining us.  If you got lots of presents for Christmas that you need to write Thank you's for, here's a great place to get some ideas.  I know I have quite a few to do...

This is the first stop in the blog hop.  There are a total of 35 blogs participating, so grab your favorite drink (an iced skinny cinnamon dolce latte for me) and sit back and enjoy the hop.  You'll want to be sure to come back over the weekend, since some of the participants will be posting multiple cards over the course of the weekend!

If you're new to my blog, be sure to become a follower.  Crafty Card Gallery is an iPhone app (works on iPad & iPod Touch) that is a card gallery for handmade cards.  You can follow great designers, and look for ideas for your own cards.  You can even submit your card to be included.  It's a great app, and will be coming soon to Android Phones...  (probably early January)
You can get it from the iTunes App Store here

On to the card....

So I just got the Winter Frolic card (had a cartridge shopping spree) and I really liked this image.  It doesn't snow here, but I usually tend to do my Christmas Thank You cards as a snowy image.

The inside of the card

Card is made with Bo Bunny paper (background) and Best glitter paper and the rest of the paper is from JoAnn's.  I bought a bunch of 6 1/2 * 6 1/2 envelopes, so I've been on a 6*6 card kick lately.
