By the way, my friend Judy Jung (see her Wednesday Wonder interview) has a terrific column every other Saturday over at the Penny Black blog. You should check out today's edition of Running With Scissors because it's chock-full of great cards featuring new Penny Black products, and she also shares a very humorous story about an attempt to start a holiday tradition!
Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!
