All I can say is that this went immediately into my favorites, and I am really picky on what I put there!

Boy, I really need to start using textures next year... love this photo... is Florabella a texture you have to buy?

Thank you so much -- especially Melinda and Robert since I don't get very many favorites at all :) -- but also Jeff, Gary and Sherran because I love to have visitors. Florabella may have some textures you have to buy but the snow overlays are free and so easy to use. Have fun!

Very fine DD work - it really came out just fantastic and I can tell how much work was involved! The effects are marvelous!
