Joyeux Noel

Sharing a Christmas card with you today.  Since we now live in Montreal where French is a dominate language, I wanted to incorporate that into a card.
I was a little unsure about all the elements as I was getting everything together.  The materials are all from my scrap stock so I was afraid the colors wouldn't match.  But I think it turned out fabulous!  The rosette is left over from a project I worked on the last few days that I will share tomorrow.  I've never made rosettes before so it was really fun trying that out.
The image is from my digi stamp collection.  I colored her really lightly with my purple colored pencil.  The fur trim around her jacket is lightly shaded with a blue colored pencil and then I sprinkled clear glitter over top so that it sparkled.  I love the coloring.  I really only have colored pencils so I try to do the best I can with what I have :)
Then I just added a few swirls that were cut out from the Cricut Cheerful Seasons cartridge, added some glitter glue and gems to the ends and put it all together!  Parfaite!
