Happy Holidays from our house to yours!
I hope your Christmas day was all things blessed and wonderful!
I've been bed-bound and slowly recoverying from one of the worst cases of the flu ever starting on the 22nd. I missed 3 crucial days of shopping, cooking and entertaining and dragged myself out of bed for the Christmas morn gift openings and watching the *babies* definitely has it's own healing qualities. Whew, definitely a Christmas for the record books!
Not to mention I came back to see my blog has been basically wiped clean! :( Every picture, every post and sidebar details are all gone and I have tried everything I know to retrieve it. I spent over an hour rebuilding back the past week's posts and to do that for the past YEARS worth? I'm out of energy, time, and strength to even give that another thought - so it looks like I know what one of my 2013 projects will be! :P
The new Riley and Company bi-weekly card challenge is up and running!
The challenge this week is Anything Goes. Easy peasy!
I ended up making a holiday card using non-traditional colors {love doing that!}
I used Riley and Percy Snow Dancing and the matching Winter Words Sentiment on the inside. The papers are bright and festive and remind me of the colors of Miami, even in "Winter" :)
To add your card to a gallery, please use the keyword Riley2612 and of course, play along with us at the Riley blog, too! Please stop by the DT blogs to see what inspiration the Riley DT has for you to see this week.
Big hugs,
Bigger Blessings!

What a pain that you blog has also had the flu!! It must have coughed and choked is all I can think!! I only hope mine never does that as I wouldn't know where to start!
