I made this card for Carolina's Dare to Get Dirty Challenge. I recently saw Gina K do the direct to paper technique creating a backdrop for her image and I wanted to try. The direct to paper technique was a little messy, but not too bad overall. Shadow stamps would have been cleaner, but not necessarily have provided the variation in the colors.

I think the technique worked great for you. It certainly sets a mood of anticipation mixed with a little fear. I'd love to have that stamp also. I have camels, but no Bethlehem. Wonderful card.
