Our hostess for this week's Teapot Tuesday is CarrollAnn and she provided us with the cutest little Santa teapot and a great story to go along with it. You can find all that here. Thanks for hostessing this week too!
My card could represent the worse present that I got (and you can read all about that on my blog) but it doesn't. It represents the best present that I got.
It all has to do with paying attention to the little things. The fact that my DH remembered from a conversation that I had with him describing a lunch date with a friend in which I mentioned finding Chocolate Neccos (my favorite flavor) by the roll in that deli and then finding a roll of said candy in my stocking that year, well, it just touched me.
He's very good at the big stuff, but sometimes it's the little things that make the biggest impression - don't you think!
I punched the bears out of Close to Cocoa and highlighted the edges with White Craft to resemble the candy wafers.
Please visit my blog where you can read the whole story and see what I got in the mail too!

just adorable..love your paper, and love how you did your border...your bears are soooo cute. I have to google and find out about that candy...never heard of it.
Oh I love the Chocolate Neccos and your bears with the white edges do make me think of them! Isn't your husband a keeper, and your right it is the little things ... what a sweet story! I love how you cut your paper too, not just the red curve the bears are on but the scallops behind them ... it's like a roll of Neccos ... Very Clever!
