I decided to print the greeting directly on the background, so I made sure to use a light, tone-on-tone paper so it would show up. I printed the manger scene onto a piece of mixed media paper, and colored it with my Inktense pencils & a damp paintbrush. I trimmed it & the sheet music paper to size. Then I inked the music paper with Pumice Stone, to make it fit the look better. I adhered both panels to my background paper, and added a length of twine above & below the greeting. Finally I mounted my card front to a white A2 card base.
