New Year's Card with Freshly Made Sketch 167

Although I sent out many hand stamped Christmas cards I have more yet to send.  The message from the Snowhaven Cardmaking Kit has just the right message for an after Christmas thought card.  I paired it with the current Freshly Made Sketch #167 and used up some very old Close To My Heart papers and colors.
