Anyone For Some Hot Cocoa?

Pin It

Today I have another Christmas card to share with you! I’ve told you about my weakness for snowmen before and I just could not resist the cute snowman images from Whimsie Doodles. I bought them all and hope I have time before Christmas to use each one.

Gosh! I just want to give him a squeeze. Do you think he would melt?

Have a great day! Thank you for stopping by!
