Oh my goodness, this is just extraordinary! The clouds, the look of light around the trees and shadows around the chidren, the gently falling snow. I would love to be in the midst of this scene, enjoying a quiet winter night. I'm very impressed that you have made 12 similar cards!

Twleve! My goodness Ann, you must have spent ages sponging that many backgrounds. What a beautiful set of cards - and lovely matching envelopes, always a treat.

Love this! Actually brings me back to when I used to ice skate as a kid in Ny. May I ask what you use to blend your ink backgrounds? I use the tim Holtz round blender but, I always get the circle outlines and sometimes they do not blend out. What am I doing wrong?
