Thanks for the mention! So kind of you.
How great is that snowflake? Go, JJK!
LT,
I hope you get lots of good submissions for the Back-to-School Carnival.
Jules,
Jarrett did a "punk farm" snowflake for the Robert's Snow auction in 2005, too. I can't wait to see all the 2007 snowflakes! We should be able to view them by the end of this month.
