I like the way she made the snake be the zero '0' for '2013' and the colors she used.
Used DCWV Once Upon A Time scrapbook paper 12" x 12" as base. Printed the artwork on Kodak Ultra photo paper. Placed an action wobble on back of photo paper. See motion photo below. Used Kraft everyday paper pack strip and ran it thru a Fiskars Paper Crimper to give it a textured snake look. Used Spellbinder for banner/sentiment tag. Stamped "Happy New Year" on banner and used a calligraphy marker to write '2013' on banner. Added 2 gold gems to attach banner to the crimped Kraft cardstock strip.
