Winter Dottie

Today I'm sharing a card showcasing this week's freebie image - you can pick it up in the Bugaboo store.  

Dottie has been colored with Promakers in different shades of greens and browns.
I attached her to a striped embossed background, which I sanded. I added a strip of burlap and a little piece of leftover ribbon, I just tied a knot and trimmed the ends. The sentiment came free with a magazine and is heat embossed with gold EP. Finally I added three green sequins.

This card is also for these challenges:
1) Crafting By Designs - Embossing
2) Sparkles Forum Challenges - Anything Goes
