It's still a little bit warm here in Texas! But yes I want the holidays.
I have used Gilly Gluwein . She is one of my favorite winter gal image. I colored ger up with copics

I recycled the twine from another project and also the kraft cardstock is recycled kraft CS. Ha Ha so are  all the pattern paper. To hide the tears and smudges I added more of it and distressed it up with distress ink ( tea ,soot, antique linen)

The sentiment I think is from waltzing mouse or paper trey ink. Not sure. The snowflakes are from spellbinder (big ones) and rest from a border punch. The embossing folder is Nellie snellen winter village embossing folders which I got from here - http://dutchpapercrafts.blogspot.com/2013/05/memory-box-frames-and-nellie-snellen.html
