Maura's color challenge this week...baja breeze and night of navy with a touch of gold. Stamped image, colored with the ink pads and water. Computer generated the sentiment. Colored silver glitter paper with the reinker, and die cut the star. Embossed the image layer, and added the gold leaf pen to the edges. Added ribbon. Applied wink of stella to the image. Enjoy doing these color challenges...usually when working with blues I use silver, both being cool colors. The gold adds warmth to the blues. Come play with us this week.

Oh Linda, this is beyond words gorgeous. I hope you keep this beautiful card to use as a holiday decoration. The way you added the sparkle to the painted image looks spiritual. Faved and pinned.

Beautiful, Linda! I love how the Mary and Joseph images fade out slightly and the glitter that makes them sparkle! So smart to color the glimmer paper - I forget about that!

This is totally gorgeous Linda! I LOVE the image, I love it on the edge, love the wink of Stella applied (so shimmery and sparkly!) And your right, normally I would use silver with blue but wow, your gold halos, star and ribbon looks wonderful with the blue! Lastly, but not least-ly, I love the embossed edges especially on top of part of the image!!! This card is extra awesome!
