    Aw this is so cute Wendy - I'm sure its just fine as a two in one card! I think everyone seems to be struggling lately - me included - my brains just not in gear at all - think we need some cold and rain to get us back to normal - I blame good weather for all this lol - enjoy the sunshine hugs Judith x

    Fabulous Christmas card Wendy... don't know what you don't like about it!! Think that penguin may be sweating a bit in this weather tho..

    I'm just like you, don't want to do anything in the least bit Christmassy earlier in the year than November... so end up buying and only making for special people!
