Since I brought limited supplies on my crafting retreat (too many people in one car - lol), I watercolored my sheep. I used this tutorial to paint them:
Made a plaid background too because I can't stop after WT936.
Congrats, Pam - thanks for all the inspiration and encouragement you have given us since your first upload in 2011!
For those wondering if sheep do well in snow - from Google: Sheep have their own natural source of insulation all over their bodies. Their wool keeps their body heat in and the cold out. That is why you will see sheep with snow piled on their backs; their body heat does not reach the outer layers of their fleece to melt the snow.

This is beautiful! Not to sound stupid (it's a gift); but sheep can survive in snow? I am really curious, I always feel sorry for animals left in the snow. LOL

This is amazing! Off to watch the video - your sheep look Scottish to me (my hubby is Scottish and I have spent lots of time near Scottish sheep, or it may be the plaid background! lol!)
