Holly & Olive - The East Wind! :D

Hi!

I entered my initial coloring of the lovely Holly & Olive image into the Kit&Clowder Advent Calendar Colouring Challenge - East Wind!

This is my overall card that I made with the coloring and happy with how it turned out! So fun to work with! :D

 


I went with non-traditional holiday/Christmas colors and went for more cool colors. :D

For some reason my photo isn't showing up as crisp as it needs to be and I've tried it several times..:( Though hope you can still see that I added purple half pearls and purple rhinestones to the corners of the card, small clear rhinestones to edges of the patterened paper, the lady's eyes. Also added Diamond Stickles to the snowflake punch.

Despite my photo issues...I hope you like her! :) I was very happy with how she turned out. :D

Thanks for looking!
