Make It Monday #271

2016 A La Carte

 I didn't get to try
 the first time around. So I made a fox die-cut stencil and planed on blending a soft winter glow around it. Then things got dark and crazy and I got this instead:


A back ground with circles, water dots, and snowflakes! I wanted an arctic fox. So I embossed the fox in white on velum and placed some foam squares behind him so you could see his face.


Leaves, berries, and a sentiment finished my card.


 I wouldn't say I 'nailed it' as far as the technique goes, but I the end result was a sweet card.

Supplies

Stylized Autumn
Snow Globe mini stamp set & die

Hope you are having a fantastic New Years so far!
