Glory to the Newborn King

Hi everyone!

New Saturday and new challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown. 

As usual, the first week of the month, we challenge you with a sketch.

After a lot of back and forth, I decided to use one of my gel prints. 

The colors are a bit strong, but somehow I like the contrast....  

Please click on the image for a better view.

I punched out stars in various sizes and adhered the panel to a white blank card. Placed smaller stars in the larger cutouts and added black and gold dots all around. The sentiment is heat embossed on black cardstock and added with foam tape.

I placed the nativity scene in the largest cutout and framed it with a star punched from gold glitter cardstock.

I have to admit that I really struggled with this sketch. But in the end, I think I kind of got it. Hope you like it.
