I wanted to make a simple yet elegant looking card with this set. I blank embossed a piece of Crumb Cake CS with the Petals folder, stamped the image in Crumb Cake, then used a gel pen to highlight all the dots in the flowers and the star. It is hard to see in the pic, but they look like they twinkle. I glued this to a Crumb Cake base and that was it. I wanted to highlight the star most of all, to show where Baby Jesus was, and I think this card accomplishes that. I hope you like it!
Thanks for looking!

This card is simply amazing...you achieved exactly what you set out to do. And the star does twinkle!

What a beautiful Christmas card! (You wouldn't think it used so few supplies!) I love all the embossing around the oval of the main image. The hint of sparkle is just the right touch. Thanks for sharing!
