Snowmen!

I'm in a mild panic getting ready for Sackville's 2nd Midnight Madness tonight (if you're local, I'll be set up in the Bridge Street Cafe - come say hi!) but wanted to pop in to let you all know how much I appreciate each & every one of the supportive comments you left about Connor's school situation. In a very strange twist, the meeting was productive. I'm still a little in shock, to be honest. It is really unfortunate that the difficulties he was having were allowed to snowball before coming together, but I'm confident that we're all on the same page now. Some of the things that fell through the cracks were completely crazy, though. Ugh. Anyway, onward & upward. Hurdle climbed, and luckily I get the impression that Connor's gotten all these people to adore him - he can be such a charming little bum, which is a good thing to remember when he's busy acting like a snotty teenager.
Anyhow, here's some fun snowman cards to look at - I'm not going to post supplies, since I'm pressed for time today, but if there's anything you're coveting or curious about just let me know in the comments!

then ripped to make the snowdrifts without causing the finished card to wrinkle
