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??

This is awesome. Love Curt sneaking in on the back of the team.

Giggle, giggle, giggle!!! OMG! This is not only really funny, Sue, but what a great scene you created with the sky, trees, and snow! They look like they're doing morning calisthenics as led by Curt! They should be in good shape and ready to compete with ConnieJo once she is all better!

Sue, a lovely serene snowboarding scene!! Love your cow!! There are so many cows on the cards today, that I had to go back and read the instructions. I thought cows got you in the back door - so that back door is going to be a busy place this week!!
