I made a winter nature card with a dog behind a fence in the snow.

The trees and the snow-capped edge complete the picture!

The design paper is from Craft Sensations

The image is from Studio Light

The trees belong to Joy

The stars are from Marianne Design

I decorated the snow border with the Stampin-Up embossing folder
