First Card of 2016, Warm & Cozy Hugs, MFTWSC261

Hello there! I hope that you've had a wonderful and very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year so far! Welcome to my first card for 2016, even though it's a late one. It's just been so busy here!

Of course I missed the deadline to post this card for the challenge. 

This card reminds me of, and I made this special card for, a darling and angelic  little precious girl in the world with the sweetest and prettiest voice who would play out in the snow making snow angels, snowmen and whatever else her heart desired when she was outside playing. She built detailed and elaborate snow-people too. Her mommy always made sure that there were plenty of items to dress up her snow-people. One time, she built an entire village! She was bundled up all warm but when she came inside, her cheeks were red. Her favorite drink was hot chocolate to warm her up, but she always asked, "Mommy, can you make me some hot cocoa please?" Her mommy always made her the real hot cocoa using Hershey's powder with milk heated up on the stove until it was warm. There were always mini Marshmallows that were put on top of her cup of hot cocoa that would light up her beautiful face. She loved her mommy and she loved her hot cocoa. 

I don't know the oh so ever beautiful inside and out girl who captured my heart anymore, but I think of her all of the time and I miss her even more. She was a princess to me and I love her with all of my heart. I hope to see her one day again soon and I hope to see the part of her heart and soul that is buried somewhere inside of the princess.

Thank you so much for stopping by to visit me today and I hope that you have a wonderful day. 

God bless and I hope that you all have a wonderful 2016!
