Be Merry

 Hello, everyone!  It's time for a new challenge from the Creative Moments Challenge blog.  The theme is: Winter.  I am using an image from our fabulous sponsors: Polkadoodles.

 Here is my card:
I was given this adorable little fox image to use and he is sooooooo cute!!  I thought he would look perfect with some paper piecing, so I printed him out on several different patterned papers, fussy cut them out and adhered everything together (after coloring up the rest of the image, of course).  I added some micro fine glitter to the snowflake to give it some sparkle.
My brother-in-law was in London a couple weeks ago and he brought me back a beautiful paper pack.  It has several sheet of paper that have this gorgeous gold foiling in it.  You can see it more in the photo below.  I die cut some corner pieces out of gold card stock to go along with the foiled pattern.


You have all month to play along.  So, get inky and link up your creation; I can't wait to see what you create!

Supplies:
Stamps: Polkadoodles "Snowflake Fall Autumn Fox" digi; Paper Trey Ink sentiment

It’s been a long time since I did paper piecing, but I’ve always loved the effect. I love the fabric style of those papers to dress him up. Sweet! Thanks for sharing your card with us at Inkspirational.
