I make a lot of cards, so it might get lost in the shuffle of my blog posting.  Hence the above link.

 I knew I would want to try again with this sketch at: 

Sunday Stamps 

Especially using the stampin up Night in Bethlehem set.  I went a wee bit more elaborate with this card then I had intended.  However I just couldn't seem to stop.  I started with the basic layout, and then decided I needed to make clouds in the background so the foil star would really pop.  Then I die cut the town in two colors to give it a shadow.  After tying the ribbon on and adding Mary and Joseph I thought a sentiment would look nice in the upper corner.  I took two pictures, because the flash really made the star have a glare, so hence the double take with no flash.  I think the dark clouds make it look like evening hours are fast approaching.  I really like how it turned out.  I hope ya all can still see the sketch in my card design. 

I also am adding a picture of this furry little fella bunking down on the branch with the cold breezes blowing.  Apparently snow is on the way (they say).

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Keep Smiling and Keep Stamping
