That's a big one! Oohh err missus!

LOL!  Sorry, that is a horrid title but it popped into my head because of the size of this ornament!!  So without further ado, let me introduce you to this gorgeously sweet Holiday Peekers - Where On The Tree by Elisabeth Bell for SCACD...

 



Isn't she SWEET?!  I used papers from My Minds Eye 12 Days of Christmas pad and I paper pieced the bauble and then used my Copics to shade it for depth.  I also added a glitter pen to highlight the snowflakes on the patterned paper and the mini bauble to make them pop more.  Here's a close up...



I used my sketch again for this month's Quixotic Inspiration challenge - I love it, even if I say so myself!!  Go to this post here to join in for a chance to win your own gorgeous Quixotic Paperie goodies!



I am entering this into the following challenges:
