Sparkle & Shine - Simon Says Stamp DT

 Good afternoon lovely peeps!

It's been such a long time since I posted here or even created a card as my health took a big hit in September which has taken me a while to recover from.

I was determined to re-join my fabulous friends at Simon Says Stamp before Christmas & I've started by creating a very simple card
