When Courtship hits a Snag

Month of Daily Downloads No. 21

The original version must have been an excerpt from 

Courting DON'Ts from the Turn of the Century:

There's eager and then there's desperate. 

Do not stick mistletoe on your chest in hopes of snagging a kiss.

Aside from laughing at the mistletoe, this image gave me a lot of headaches. I thought I was gonna have to knit a whole new sweater for that woman:) Anyway, I hope you like my dreamy "blue green" version. I know that spring is only a month away, but I wanted to share this ice skating couple while there is still some snow on the ground and when I started my month of downloads, I had a request for more skaters. Nancy, I hope you like it:) 

Sans the Happy New Year greeting, I think the blue version could be turned into a Blue Christmas card.

Your feedback on the little girl in blue was most appreciated. There are now 3 other versions of her available in my Etsy shop here and on Zibbet here. My Etsy 35% off and Zibbet 50% off sale ends tonight at 9 pm Pacific time (that's my bedtime:)

IF you have a blog, belong to a Yahoo group, crafting circle on Facebook ... please spread the news about the 

"Love Me Two" challenge. 

I promise it will be a contest with twice as much fun:)
