I was originally going to go with a completely different kind of image and try to stick close to Shannon's papers and colors and sketch, but then I remembered that I had this SU Holiday Blocks set which was a hostess special. The jingle bell is one of the two stamps I've mounted. I colored the bells with the Metallic colored pencils and gamsol. I had to practise on a couple, but finally got the coloring to a place where I'm really pleased with it. I wanted to add glitter but just couldn't figure out how without ruining it. Since my stamp images were square, I had to do squares instead of circles. I used different background papers from the DSP set that Shannon used and my greeting was computer generated. I also used a silver metallic ribbon.

I love everything about this card. The jingle bell stamp is very pretty and the way you colored the bells with metallic pencils is great! Your bottom corner adds a lot to the card. Put together really well. Also, love the striped paper.
