The digi image was printed on X press cardstock in draft mode so the image was not harsh then colored with pencils. I almost believed I could color those tiny details with copics- not a chance (chuckle) Created several layers from cardstock after embossing the Sahara sand layer. Hand stitched around the edges after punching holes with a plastic needlepoint canvas. Set mini eyelets and used fine twine for the X's.
Thanks for looking

Nancy, you've taken winter and Christmas and made it into a work of art. It's not just all the WONDERFUL details, but also the "feel" of it. It is sooooo fantastic!

Oh, my word! This looks like a painted picture, you need to frame it and hang it up somewhere, Nancy! I wouldn't mind living here, so peaceful! Absolutely stunning~
