Christmas at Ike'sworld Challenge page

I'm not one to really start working on Christmas so early in the year.  Inspiration escapes me as well as thoughts of Christmas making me a tiny bit sad.  Christmas was my mother's favorite holiday, but I'm sure she'd want me to keep the torch going for her love of the holidays even if it is summer. :)  The image I used is Holly from Ike's Art which can be found here: http://www.ikesart.com/#!__digital-art-stamps  I am entering this one in the Ike'sworld Christmas in June challenge found here: http://ikesworldchallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk/
I colored her up with Copics.  I used E11, E21, YR00, YR000 and E04 for her skin, YR21 and YR24 for her hair and YG61 any G94 for the holly wreath on her head and R29 for her lips.  Hope you like!  I appreciate any and all comments you leave.  Thanks in advance for the love! Happy 4th everyone!

Hugs,
Helen

    I signed up to follow your blog, but for some reason it is using an old pix of me. I don't have pink hair anymore, (well for now) I even tried to change the photo but it didn't work. But I am also following you by email. :)

    Your colouring is amazing Helen. Her hair looks incredible and I can't get over her lips and eye shadow. Her lips look moist and her eyes like they have sparkly frost shadow! Simply beautiful.

    Thanks for joining us this fortnight over at Ike's World Challenges. I hope you will consider coming back and playing with us again soon.
