Hanging Christmas Bells with Holly Coloring Page

Two broad bells dominate the upper half of the scene, their smooth curved surfaces interrupted only by small clappers visible at the base of each bell in this printable coloring page. A ribbon loops into a full bow above them, its tail ends trailing downward in gentle curves on either side. Holly clusters with round berries punctuate the pine branches below, where short needles radiate outward in overlapping rows along each branch. The bells themselves reward a metallic approach - golden yellows shaded with amber along the lower curves and a near-white highlight near the top will give them a convincing cast-metal look. Deep forest green suits the pine needles and holly leaves, while the snow mound at the bottom prints as a series of gentle scalloped bumps that shade nicely with pale blue or lavender in the recessed areas. The ribbon at the top is the one area in this printable where a vivid red or deep burgundy will anchor the whole composition visually.
