Brown & Cream Christmas

Good Afternoon All, I hope you are all keeping well, our weather is really funny today, when I went upto the hospital to visit my Dad the sun was shinning, came out it was raining, got on the bus sunny again, then rain again and now sun, but no rainbow as yet, My card to day is made using one of the New Bestie Christmas images from Sherri Baldy isn't she lovely, I have coloured her with my Graph'it markers,the hat color and cuff are all glittered but its not showing up very well. I have followed a sketch from Everybody Art Challenge, which was fun to do, the papers are from Dovecraft back to basics modern the snow flake die cut ring is from Sizzix the tree is from Marianne creatables, and the stamped bingo tickets are from Joy craft.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges.

Lovely to see non traditional Christmas colours being used. We had hail stones at one point yesterday followed by a rainbow. Weather certainly is playing tricks at the moment. Mrs A.
