Happy New Year!

Hey friends!! I've got a fun new card to share with you!! This one was a commission for a very good friend of mine. She decided to send "New Year" cards rather than Christmas cards. As a special favor, Mo created this awesome Father Time "flipping off" 2020! LOL!

I kept everything on the front in shades of grey and black! Perfect for most of 2020: My broken arm, Covid, quarantine, masks, no toilet paper, politics, etc., etc., etc. Then . . . for the inside . . . COLOR & CONFETTI! Plus, I used Mo's totally adorable New Year's Baby giving a double "Thumbs Up" to 2021 (available as a pre-release on Mo's Patreon page)!!!

My Card "Recipe" . . .
