CAS Girl in glass card (Bugaboo image)

Hi crafty friends,

I have a few cards to show you today and this one is a sassy girl's Christmas card hehe. The ahem, "lady" is from Bugaboo Stamps and I think she is hilarious. I saw on someone else's card they had written next to her "who cares, I'm on the naughty list anyway" hehe, I was so tempted to use it on my card but I forgot to keep the "author's" name to give her credit, doh!
