I took the image and adjusted the color from grays and whites (pencil drawing) to sepia tone. I wanted an aged look for the Baby Jesus image. The scroll already comes in a sepia antique color.
I printed the image twice, cut out just the Baby Jesus in his blankets and popped it up using dimensionals. The card base is Elegant Eggplant with a gold shimmer paper and then the DP is from Graphic45. I used a gold leaf paint pen to edge the image panel. The eggplant poinsettias I found in my local craft store.
I hope I created a card worthy of the beauty of this image. This card was a labor of love.
Check out the rest of the design team blogs to see their creations using these same incredible images. You'll be so inspired by their talent. Links to their blogs are on my left sidebar.

Sharon,
What a beautiful card. All you detail just adds so much to the image. I love the idea of popping up the image.
Sharon...I don't even know where to start. First, I am so blessed to have you designing on our team. I know that was a diving appointment. Second, every week I look forward to what you are going to create....I can't wait to see what comes up on that DT blog of yours. And third....YOU ALWAYS LEAVE ME WANTING MORE!!! This is a color combo that I don't use often and you have rocked this challenge. It has a regal look about it and is rightfully fitting. I am coveting those little poinsettias and would love to know where to find them.
Oh Sharon, this is a work of art and must be framed!! The colors, the layout and coloring is just breathtaking. This is certainly a show stopper!!
Sharon, your creation is amazing! All of the details are exquisite, and the colors make the image truly stand out! Wonderful!
