I started with the background stamp from Winnie & Walter and thank heavens for stamp platforms because this needed stamping multiple times to get a crisp even image. The moose was coloured with alcohol markers and cut using the matching die with a few highlights added with white gel pen.
The sentiment is from the same set and embossed in clear after stamping in black and I love that its big, bold and really matches the image. I've added a little Wink on the background swirl.
This one is for my eldest and I plan on making a second one for my youngest, possibly in blue to give him a wintry feel :)
