Ink #209 Animal - real or magical

For our new challenge at Inkspirational we'd like to see animals, real or magical ones, it's up to you. Please head over to the challenge blog to see inspiration from my teamies.
I made a Christmas card with a the most adorable piggie, which is a magical version of a real animal. I was inspired by the gingerbread man he's holding in his hands, using brown ink for the stenciled background and a dark kraft background with red foil detailing.
The sentiment is part of the same stamp set as the pig - from Kort og Godt. I heat set the sentiment with red glitter powder. I also added loose glitter on the fur trimmings of the pig's outfit. 

This card is also for:
