Wow,I received this lovely winter wonderland card from Connie Jo9, aka Sput this week, and I'm still gloating over its beauty!
There was no sun earlier when I was trying to capture the beauty of Connie's card, so it's difficult to see ever so petitie snow flakes stamped in the same color she's painted through her trees.
In the upper left corner, you might be able to see the smallest clip I've ever seen! It's holding the ribbon. OMGosh, sput, how darling is that.
Love the lone leafless tree with the cardinal.
Your coloring is unimaginably wonderful. A perfect serene, winter scene is what you've gone and created here. Thank you so much. As soon as I received it, I was so momentarily attuned to its beauty that I almost forgot myself there. I immediately wanted to ship out that adorable st bernard card I made last week. you know the one...the one you said belongs to you. Thank heavens, sanity kicked back in and it didnt go in the mail! Whew, for a moment there it was almost at your doorstep!
How sweet of you to send this card, Sput. It's really crafted to your usual style of perfection! Boy, can you ever make fabulous cards!
Hugs
Please leave Connie Jo a comment. She has nothing better to do all day than read comments!
Just kidding, Sput!

I hope I don't make a mistake in saying I remember seeing that card on Sput's gallery and I fell in LOVE with it. OMG, I can't believe you got it Anne. Especially after sending her that horrible card sticking your tongue out at her. Now, don't ya feel bad about that now????? Now you know how it feels!!! I know you adore this card and will treasure it!! Great work Sput!! TFS!

Oh Anne, I am so glad you got this beauty.....and what a beauty it is! These colors are so soothing. I love how she did the tree. I am amazed that my sister actually did this! Not really, she makes some pretty amazing cards. So glad it didn't get lost in the mail like the card she sent to me. I still have not received it. SO either she really didn't send it, or I am afraid it might be lost. Dang! I so needed a card! Well at least you got some happy mail....TFS :0(...me no card.

Oooh, Anne, lucky you indeed! I admired this card in CJ's gallery, but didn't see the snowflake detail as I see it here. Beautiful work, Connie Jo! Thanks for sharing, Anne!

I am so glad you liked my card, Annie Jo. When you mentioned you would like to have it, I could not mail it fast enough. I was so happy to give you a card you really liked since you give so much of yourself to so many people. You are definitely one of a kind friend. No one compares to your wit and sincerity. tfs.
hugs,
