Created this shaped Christmas/Winter card:

2. new Kraft cardstock  - I thought the blue pattern was perfect for the scarf
3. added twine to ends of scarf for fringe look
4. stamped Unity Stamp Co sentiment
5. punched out sentiment with Stampin' Up punch
6. recycled a wood coffee/tea stir stick for sentiment tag/sign post
