Chilly willy friends

I've colored up this Whipper Stamper image a number of times now, and I get a kick out of this menagerie and their expressions, but they seem to be tried and true friends in the chilliness of winter's grip.   I love the ribbon at the bottom that dresses up the card, as well as has the sentiment already on it.   A doily tucked behind, a snowflake added and candi-dots attached and its ready to be mailed off.
