What a lovely drawing! I think the paper really suits the feel of this piece and I must commend you on how festive everything looks. The fairy in the centre with the cute robin is a wonderful touch and reminds me of the fairy statue in my garden. I like how you've drawn the holly with an art nouveau style, curling the edges of the branches and really making me wonder if this isn't a vintage Christmas card.

Speaking of Christmas cards, I'd love to see this as one, with maybe some red and gold calligraphy at the top or bottom. Of course, this would depend entirely on if you planned on revisiting this. I know I'm a little late.

Thank you for sharing such a delightful piece and I hope you have a fantastic new year. 

Best wishes,
