Jingle Belles : Neutral Noel

 Yay, it's Friday!!! We're halfway through the current challenge at Jingle Belles - Neutral Holidays. Lauren and Stef gave us a gorgeous photo to help jumpstart our creativity...


We can use the colors as an inspiration or the patterns or whatever inspires you! I was inspired by the peacefullnes of the images.....

I found this digi image while surfing the web - you can find her at The Paper Shelter. I colored her with my Copics in soft shades of blue and I colored the doily to match. The snowflakes were made with my Cricut , using It's A Child's Year cartridge. I cut them at 1", 3/4" and 1/2".The paper is from an old Michaels Christmas stack and the ribbon was purchased at a local craft store. The sentiment is from a SU hostess set :The More The Merrier ( retired ).

Here's a closeup of the girl- I'm still learning how to shade with my Copics and I still have lots to learn! But still, it's so  much just learning!!!

 So this is my card for the  Jingle Belles challenge - hope you enjoyed it!
Thanks for stopping by.... have a great weekend!
