Your sponged sky and snowdrifts are so soft and beautiful Maura. And the red birds in the trees are sweet! Thanks for joining us at ATS&M.

This is just so lovely! You are amazing with that ink blending tool! I'm imagining all the lovely sparkle on the trees and thinking it must be so pretty. It appears that I need an ink blending tool
