{Purple Onion Designs} New Stacey Yacula - A Charming Winter

I have another card today featuring images from the Stacey Yacula collection at Purple Onion Designs, "A Charming Winter."

I started out by stamping the Pond scene onto Neenah cardstock and then cut out a portion of it using a Lil Inker Designs stitched die. I colored Henry with Copic Markers and then fussy cut out attaching to the pond with dimensional tape. The sentiment from the Winter Wishes Sentiment set was stamped onto a tiny tag. I wrapped Hemptique cord and silver thread around the card and added the sentiment tag along with a smaller silver tag, both cut with a very old Quickutz die. A star cut with The Cat's Pajamas 3x3 Star CutUps and a couple of enamel dots finished it up.
