Peachy Connection Challenge

Hello Crafty friends!
I know its been a LONG time since I've posted here. Seems there's not enough time. I did find a moment to create something for this challenge.....
 
Here is my entry

I used PK-147 Skatin Boy
PKSC-11 November 2012 stamp of the month
Tim Holtz spiced Marmalade distress ink pad (which works GREAT to emboss)
Clear embossing powder for the sentiment
Glossy accents for the ice rink and some snow.
I paper pieced the scarf and mittens, face and belly also paper pieced with white paper. Colored in the fur parts with gel pen, boots and skates colored with copics and a silver gel pen for the blades. Glitter pen for the beak.
Enjoy your summer!!
