The Colours of Autumn for the Winter Wonderland Challenge

Good morning to you all in the land of blog
Today sees the next challenge at the


with a fabulous theme chosen by the very talented Linda of

Use the Colours of Autumn

So with very little waffle from me today, here is my design team inspirational piece
This is my little snowy, a new edition to my Penny Black stamps and a very welcome one.  I have created another extended card to allow for the POTP MS holly which is the base colour of deep brown.  This is also the contrast colour for these gorgeous Papermania Mono oranges. The sentiment is from a set of Wild Rose clear stamps available at Grimsby Crafts.  Behind the sentiment is a die cut nestie snowflake in white.  The pearls have again been airbrushed as has the sheer ribbon using an orange copic.  Little snowy has also been coloured with copics.  Isn't he adorable.   

Now don't forget to hop over and see my teamies gorgeous creations, so inspirational.

I would like to enter this creation into the following challenges
