Using Susan's CAS version as a starting point, I wanted to incorporate the image with the curvy, cut bottom onto the center panel of a step card. I reached for some retired DSP that had dark colors that I thought would compliment the neutral colors in the stamped images. I embellished the center with some white pointsettas and a few fern fronds with muted green gems. I also put a touch of stickles on the points of the star and added some dots of glitter pointing from the star to Bethlehem that probably doesn't show well in the photo.
I really wanted to keep the tone of this understated in the spirit of the original, while stepping it up just a bit. Do you think I achieved that with this design? Thanks so much for viewing and commenting.
