Sweater Fox Lost his Mittens

Hello, everyone! Today I'm sharing another winter-themed card featuring a sweater animal! This fox has lost his mittens!  As usual, I was inspired by a number of challenges.
 

Clear stamps: Newton's Nook Sweater Weather 
Die:  Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders
Stencil:  Newton's Nook Evergreen

I stamped, coloured, and fussy-cut the sweater fox and mittens so I could pop them up on foam tape. I created the background using an evergreen stencil with Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide and then adhered the die-cut snowy landscape, fox, and mittens.  I inked around the edges of the sky with the same Distress Oxide and then stamped the sentiment and snowflakes in black.  As a finishing touch, I added some Star Dust Stickles to the fox's hat pompom.

I was inspired by the following challenges:

  4. Well that is indeed a perfect winter card design. That fox is all ready for the cold and blizzard season. In fact, we are having a blizzard today and he would be nice and warm for a little while at least. LOL This is a darling card design.
