Hi friends,
I started out with the WT and decided on the shadow box for a frame. It was just the right size to use for the sketch as well so went for it and also the colors worked perfectly. My neutral is the browns in the pine cone. The holly leaves were an after thought so I didn't really spend much time on them since I also had to cut them out. I colored the main images then splattered them with white paint for snow. I edged the box with red and I also stamped and embossed the dots on red, stamped the stripes on the white and added Dries White with glitter to the pine cone .
Thanks for looking!

Robin, this is just darling. Your bow is velvetty soft and the snow looks so fine and realistic. Pretty candy cane striped dp and the holly in the corners finish this off so well~

I have some fair trade woven pinecone ornaments on red cord for the tree, this reminds me so much of them. Very nice shadowbox, and the hilly leaves look great, even if they were an afterthought.
