Judy,
I am so glad you liked your ornament. I am really thankful that it arrived before Christmas. I knew it would take some time to reach Canada, but I didn't think it would take this long.
As for the blue glitter, it is wrapping paper. It is gorgeous! I have that paper in gold and silver as well. I purchased the paper after Christmas 2011 at Wal-Mart. I wish I had purchased more.
My family and I are really enjoying the ornament you made for me. each time my darling 8 year old grandaughter comes to visit, she goes to the tree and opens the door. She told me that was her favorite ornament on the tree.
Have a very Merry Christmas and a most blessed New Year!
I hope we can be swap partners again soon.

HOHOHO Debbie! aka buzzin bee
A special creation was waiting at the mail that really made my day!
I think the blue glitter is so pretty! The tiny snowflakes, snowballs & bow are too sweet!
I collect snowmen so the cute little fellow on the front really found a good home!
Thanks for the Snowmen themed tuck ins too! You've been very generous 
Thanks for being partners!
Happy Holidays!
Judy

Oh, Maddie! I cannot thank you enough for this lovely work of art you've created and sent to me. I absolutely love it! The pictures just do not do this little Christmas child, snowball and Christmas tree decoration justice - it's hands-down better than any Bethany Lowe creation (and she's one of my favorites!), not only because of the awesome design, but because it is a wonderful gift created and handmade by you! I love, love, love it! It truly is a work of art - you are so, so talented! I will treasure this for many, many years to come. Thank you so, so much! Love to you, my friend! Hugs and blessings - Nini

Judy (in Canada)
Has your package arrived? I wish I would have thought and sent it via Air-Mail.
Let me know when it arrives and I won't be tempted to chase the mail delivery truck to the border. LOL!
Hugs friend,
