This is my card for today's sketch challenge. Thank you Roxie for not only posting this awesome sketch but for also posting a link to my thread for Maddy! How thoughtful of you! This is my story:
1. I made this card for Frances #2 (franb63). On Monday I promised Frances I would send her a snowflake card and a couple of dog bones for Sugar!
2. When I was making this card the whole time I was thinking of Jojot and her awesome snowflake cards.
3. Kittie is the queen of snow scenes, Jojot is the queen of snow flakes.
4. For months I have been trying to come up with a nick name for Joanne. Something catchy, something combining her name with snow. I called her Snow-Snot one day, but then had to apologize. After that, nothing else seems to work. Maybe you all can help me out here.
6. I had to have a talk with the photographer this morning. Even though the snowflake is really white, it looks a little yellow in the picture, like it's been * * * * on by Fran's dog Sugar. It hasn't!
Note: I painted white dots on the ribbon using acrylic paint.

I love how you managed to sneak dots onto your ribbon and of course the yellow snowflake - he he! I thought of Joanne right away when I saw the thumbnail and before I saw it was a Cindy card. I will think on a name for her but it may not be flattering as she called me the Ribbon Queed yesterday. I am pretty sure it was a typo, but who knows?

Lucky Frances #2!!! This is gorgeous!!! I like *generous Jo* for JoJot cause she told me where to get her awesome snowflake bg!!! Before ya say it I know "generous" doesn't begin with a *J*, but it sounds the same...and she's too sweet to be a snot!!! *grin*
