Shhhhsh Nicole, don't want to be thinking about that just yet, I'm nowhere near ready to go shopping, but I did make my cards in January, a first I must say.

Love the banner design - those three flags of delicate script make a lovely backdrop for your wonderful vintage Father Christmas. There's a delicious frosty sparkle to this card - and that little peg is a fab finishing touch. I can't manage Christmas in September, but it looks as though you're getting in the mood already!
