Growing up in a snowy climate I loved to sled and play out in the snow...build snowforts, snowmen, getting those rosy cheeks and wet, soggy mittens! I think we only had one or two snow days during my school years..our school was really tough on that policy. Well, nowadays, it seems the standard is not so high when it comes to closing the school or keeping it open. When I see the name of my school on a "closed" list after a big storm I inwardly cringe....how I longed for those snow days!

I grew up with the same weather, and the thing I hated most was when we'd be waiting for the bus for like an hour, then finally go home to learn we didn't have school! What a waste! Your card looks so 3-D like, it's amazing! Love all your snowflakes and the sparkle on this one, Polly! Very sweet card~

This is just gorgeous and so much fun to look at! I absolutely love it. I know how you feel about 'snow days'. I don't ever remember my school being closed because of snow. They made us trudge through heck and high-water just to be there! LOL

Polly, love your cute card, and it sure brought back memeories for all of us who grew up where it snowed alot. The older I get the more I'm not liking that white stuff. Love how your cards always tell a story. tfs
