Paper

Mix several greens (deep green for the pine, a brighter green for the holly), red berries, brown pine cones and a red or gold bow. Fine-tip markers or well-sharpened pencils make the needles much easier.

Use a light gray or pale blue for snow shadows: it makes white areas look three-dimensional.

Red and green side by side can look flat; add gold or a warm yellow to lights and stars to make the page glow.
