Birthday card for my sweetheart of nearly 35 years, who loves the snow, and covered bridges. Someday soon we will be traveling a road like this to meet our first grandson in Wyoming.
Birthday song for you Bubba:
Main image is from a retired SU Classic (2003) and I used a combination of watercolor and copics. Snow Tex (PSS in Illinois) was added and dusted with MS fine glitter. The MS leaves were sponged in CC and also glittered.
Thanks for looking.

Love the card, but not sure if you really know about the snow in Wyoming. When we moved from the east side of WY to the west side of WY I couldn't figure out what was so weird about the snow falling, then we realized that it was falling straight down and not sideways.
