The card is superb, as always Linda. But what REALLY makes it is your FANTASTIC colouring. xxx
I agree with Sandra, your colouring is so neat and precise Linda. your shading is fantastic.I needs lots of lessons to get to your stage ha ha. What a fun card too and I like the string of jingle bells.

It’s adorable. Lovely colours and the striped paper is so awesome and it looks like peppermint candy and Christmas wrapping paper. The teddy looks like he’s in a storybook, as I always say about your images. :)
So very cute!! Love your coloring, and the ornament diecut looks fabulous!
It’s beautiful Linda. I love blues for the holidays and now I’m going to have to go shopping for that jingle bell die!
