Lili of the Valley Christmas card

This card is my very first attempt at colouring with my daughters Prismacolor pencils and I'm really pleased with how its turned out.


The image is Christmas candle by Lili of the Valley.  Coloured with prisma's.  I've added ice diamonds for the snow, clear christmas frosting that came free in a magazine.  The candle glows thanks to chalk.  The holly paper was a gift off a friend and the bow is made with 2 different ribbons with a flower button on top.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges :
Papertake - anything goes
Craft your passion - anything goes with ribbon
Dream valley - monochrome
Crafty emmas store - pretty girls
Bugaboo - anything goes
Lili of the valley - buttons - button flower used on bow
