I've had a go at something new for this one.
I found a picture and put gesso on it to make it look like snow.
I've chalked the couples clothing to make it stand out a bit.....and I mixed some gesso with powdered chalk and added some touches of colour here and there.
I dont seem to have much craft stuff to do with winter sports but I wanted to join in .....so here it is ....!!!
A big thank-you to "The Graphics Fairy" for the image.

Great arch, love the image
Excellent arch...gorgeous!
Beautiful arch, RubyMay. I love the way you put gesso on for the snow. Actually, we used to live on a hill where the kids on the block and I (one of the kids' mother) would sled down like the kids in your scene.
What fun they seem to be having on your gorgeous arch, RubyMay, you created a great snow effect!
Oh, I am so glad you did. It's an excellent image and you've really enhanced your arch with the gesso and coloring. Gorgeous!
Now, I have used gesso lots but never as a colour on its own, just to be covered by another colour, so you have taught me something again!!
This is great, gesso is just such a good material to work with, love the sense of fun and movement in your card
Ohhh Superb! Love this one You are so talented!
awesome image and background detail. I feel like I am on the sled with them! :)

Oh, this looks great RubyMay!
I really like how the gesso looks like snow, the mixed color adds depth!
