Isn't this digital image just PERFECT for the challenge? I saw this image and then started a search. I took a couple of days, but I found Mary Ellen Smith of Dearie Dolls who drew this image. Being digital is a bonus with an image this size, too! And to put this in perspective, this card is 6"x6".
This paper is from Doodlebug and the paperpack is named Home for the Holidays. The image, the paper, and the sentiment by Whimsy...were so perfect together that I have used very few embellishments so the paper shows! I used two types of ribbon, one ribbon taped on top of the other in the corners. The little red pearls are from my stash. I used Stickles glue on the snowflakes, but then used loose glitter by Wow! on the snow over the ground and car.

Of course, leave it to you to find the perfect image and coordinating background papers!! Love the ribbon added to the edges and with the coloring of the image, I like how it's the main focus on this card and not covered up with too many embellishments -- you just HAD to be able to show off the bg paper and not waste it, m'dear !!
