I created my card using the cling wrap tutorial Lydia gave us here on SCS. I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks and a mister.
It is hard for me to cut with a craft knife and recently bought a hot knife which made it much easier. I bought it to mount some stamps I wanted and had to buy unmounted. I love it...super tool. I had to cut away the white cardstock where I stamped this image between the donkey and Joseph and another small place or two. The rest I cut out with scissors.

I have only recently heard of the hot knife and really want to get one. I love that you can cut in the small sections. I needed to do that on a card I just created and really wish I had one as the knife was just not going it. This is amazing and love that BG you created.

Gorgeous! Your coloring on the image is fabulous. The fussy cut is excellent, even if you did use a special tool. The image alone would still have made a gorgeous card, but the background is fabulous. The sentiment is awesome. Very well done! TFS
