I was up till the ball dropped in NY on tv and asleep before midnight here in Central TX. A tradition that my mother started is to put out a coin on the windowsill for each member of the family (yes there is one for Daisy since she is a part of our family) to ensure that you have money/fortune in the new year. I put out TX quarters.
Created this multi-layer scene card inspired by a card I saw which you can click here to see. First time using my new Simon Says Stamp Village die set.
