Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge. I turned the sketch on its side to accommodate the image...
Speedy the Cat dug our hand carved Nativity Scene out of my Christmas ornament box last evening and left it on the COUCH! (I keep these items in my CHINA CABINET!!! Coincidently, the door to the cabinet was LOCKED this morning! YIKES!)
So, I took Speedy the Cat's advice and used this stamp set. The image was stamped on watercolor paper and colored with SU! markers. Then, the Wise Men were cut out.
The image was then stamped onto a piece of DCWV designer paper and colored in with SU! markers. (The far end building and candle were colored with an Inkssentials pen.) I layered the Wise Men with dimensionals.
The Star was outlined in marker and then a gold leafing pen.

I don't know what's better, your stories or your cards. They're both great and I just love what you did with this challenge. The colors you used are splendid and the final product a real beauty.
