This will be my last post for Scrapbook Blessings Club.

My DT term ended quite some time ago, and I've stayed on,
but the time has come to step down.

A HUGE thanks to Sandy for having me,
and the great job she does! 

This time I made a card using a My Besties image.

They are one of the generous sponsors.

Please excuse the shadows on my card.
It was snowing and dreary when it was taken. 
{ YAY! :o) }

I just did some simple layering, 
then added some poinsettias.
Finally, I added my favorite sequins from Where Ideas Bloom!
Have you noticed I like sequins on everything lately? :o)
