    Hi Vicky! Ohhh I lurve your cute christmas card, really lovely colours! Such pretty papers and sparkle, and I think your new flowers are fab! Urm as for the X Factor... I didn't see it Sunday eve but have heard who Cheryl put through... what was she thinking with that blonde lass... she soooo fancies herself as the next Lady Gaga... pity she can't since as good! Oh well, I suppose Cheryl has won the last two series... she must be giving someone else a chance this year lol! Is that the twist? Happy Crafting hun... at least the miserable weather is good for something! Shelly x
