Well, we know the idea is to get Connie Jo on the MOOO-VE again after her knee surgery, and what better way than to spark her need for serious competition? We got the TREES, we got the SLOPES, and we got the SNOW, so Curt decided to form a snowboarding team to start training for the Winter Olympics next year. Of course you know he has to get in on all the action if it gets him some STAR quality attention, and he figures Connie Jo will get all excited and want to be in the competition too, so she will rehab her knee all the faster.
My card is really only one layer - I stamped the trees going down the slope, sponged my sky in, then drew Curt, cut him out and added him to the rear of the embossed team members speeding down the slope. The front portion of the snowy slope is torn and sponged also, then spritzed with champagne shimmery mist, though the shimmery paint doesn't show in my picture. Hope that this card gets a chuckle from Connie Jo, but I know I can't measure up to Mutnik's stories and drawing of Curt - just wanted to have a little fun with this for Connie Jo's sake.
How do you like my funny idea??

What a great card! I love how you drew Curt and the fun ski team members and snowing bank. You had some serious MOJO going on this card. I am so far behind on the teaparty cards.... I need to get going and catch up!!!
