Cut piece of scrap cs to mask sky while you sponge in sand dunes on white cs starting with lightest brown pigment ink pad thru to darkest brown. Remove mask. Sponge in sky with blue pigment ink in the same manner but leaving a lighter area where star shines. Mask all but one of the Wise Men on the Come Let us stamp and ink up this Wise Man with Stazon black and stamp. Do this twice more. Set card aside for the pigment ink to dry overnight, then stamp sentiment with silver pigment ink and emboss with silver ep. Stamp flourish in same manner. Apply sticker star. Mat finished card on silver cs, then onto raw sienna cs.
