The Paper Shelter DT - Use only two colours!

Morning Folks!  Hope you're having a good week so far.  Today's card is for The Paper Shelter and this week our challenge is to use only two colours with the exception of skin and hair.  Not as easy as it might sound lol but must be honest enjoyed the challenge!
For my card I used the gorgeous and brand new "Frost Girl".  The awesome backing paper is one that comes with the image, isn't it fab?!  I added a load of die cut snowflakes and a huge ribbon from my stash.
I made the image slightly larger, coloured her in with my Copics and cut her out and popped her onto some foam pads for a more 3D look.  Sadly couldn't get a decent pic from the side for you to see.  The colours I used were :
Skin - E00, E13, E11, R20
Hair - E57, E55, E53, E50
Outfit - B37, B34, B32, B00 / C5, C3, C1
Thanks for stopping by.  Hope you will join in the fun with us this week over at The Paper Shelter.  Lotsa luv, hugs xoxo
