I wasn't sure if this was a Christmas image because of the bell on her wings, but I decided that she could be either depending on the colour scheme and accessories, so I've stayed away from snowflakes and festive colours.
I've used a blue and brown colour scheme (the ribbon is a rich chocolate brown, not black as it appears in the photo). The matting card is also a kraft colour brown but it is a shimmery paper, although again this doesn't show up much in the photo.
I've sneaked in some lace under the ribbon and a bow which is held on with a pearl brad.
My typed sentiment has been cut out with a Notables die on which I've then punched a hole at one end to create a small tag.

I really like the way you did the shaded outline of the image and then sort of dotted the second colour over it!
