I used a Papertrey Ink stamp and die set to create my card...take a look:
Most of my card is die cut from the Petite Places: Nativity set, only the image of the holy family is stamped. I used black, gray, and light gray to die cut the night sky, the town of Bethlehem, and the palm trees, and then the stable and behind the black layer is gold cardstock.
I mounted my die cut images to a white panel and then stamped my greeting from PTI's O Holy Night stamp set. I finished with a layer of black cardstock and attached both to a top folding white card base. Very CAS and I love the way this turned out!
