Winter coats, winter boots.....like mice and bugs, look so much better on cards than in real life. Although not a Christmas image, I feel that Gladys Winterbottom, from Dr Digi's House of Stamps fits the bill perfectly when she's all decked out in her winter woolies.
I've coloured with markers and used the 'out of the box' technique to cut out the image, with some red cardstock and older DP from Memory Box. Only the sentiment is from an actual Christmas line, but all the red and then the winter theme does the trick. The fancy die cut uses the Joy Craft Lacy Square Frame, and I've smudged a bit of glitter over it for some sparkle.
Here's hoping you all have a lovely weekend. I think summer is finally here to stay.
Some challenges for my card:
