The weather just before Christmas was very mild here in Southern Ontario and the Jolly-Jump-Ups flowered in my front garden. Snow arrived on Wednesday, and even though the temperatures are still mild their smiling faces are covered with a warm blanket of snow.
I added a texture from French Kiss called Rosy French Script and
Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!!!

Wow ~ Isn't that just a blessing to behold in January in Southern Ontario. I am here as well, but alas the only thing in my garden is my Holly Bush which looks wonderful. Have a great day ;-)
Gorgeous! We won't see those until spring and I can hardly wait. Have a wonderful New Year!!
Hi Jen, goodness, your photo is stunning! I love it.
Happy New Year!

lovely! here are also some spring flowers. i have posted them last week :)
We are enjoying a rather mild winter here in NY also, but we surely do not have any beautiful flowers like this!! This is a wonderful photograph.
Thank you so very much for being a part of The Creative Exchange today.
Have a wonderful day!

Oh my, and I thought we were having mild weather here!
I love what you've done with the photo! It should be framed now.
Love the texture you applied! It's been mild here (for the most part too) but everything in our yard remains brown and cold.
I love Johnny Jump Ups! I love your new header. Happy New Year.
Such a sweet little flower. V
Beautiful, here in central Ky. I have a couple of Pansies hanging on. Beautiful coloring.

Love the clarity of the inner petals and the whole composition of the shot.
I like it. Wonderful photo with the texture.
Greetings from Hilda
Love how you used the texture. I've never tried that, but I need to get brave and learn one day.
The picture of the lake in your last post is stunning! Wishing you a better 2012. I hope this is a great year for you!
That is a very pretty picture - also love the texture you have used.
What a pretty image!
The weather certainly has been weird this winter!
I love those sweet Viola faces! They are about the only thing blooming here now.
I love the background - and also the way the flower stands out - very pretty. Hope this year is a grand one for you.
Hi, I love Johhny Jump Ups. They are such hardy little self sowers. Every Spring I would have them popping up in the most unexpected places. Always loved their cute bright eyed blooms!
What a nice touch for a cute flower with a cute name ;-)
WOW..yes - it's been warm..but jolly-jump-ups? They must be so confused. Gorgeous image...love the textured overlay and effect!
Such a lovely and hardy little gem!!! We won't be seeing anything like these for quite some time! Lucky you :)
Happy New Year to you.
I didn't get my pansies planted this fall and I am missing them! Thanks for sharing your johnnie-jump-ups. Your photo is lovely. The texture you put on it works very well. I have not been happy with the textures I have tried as they all seem to be white with only a little writing on the very edges. If I reduce opacity to show colors I loose the writing.
So pretty, and perfect with that texture. Is there anything like a violet?
Isn't that fun, a johnny-jump-up in December? Nice to see!
This is so beautiful and I love the texture!
lovely use of texture :)
