I used my all-time favourite Christmas stamp to make this card, I think it's such a beautiful image. Simply stamped onto white card, cut an aperture in the gold card and then used gold glimmer paste through a MB stencil. The die cut star is covered with the same paste. I rounded the corners of the card to echo the aperture.
Thanks for looking!

How lovely and serene, Chris. I love the simplicity of the image with her peaceful, meditative pose - you can see the calm in her dear face. Your amazing shining star, so meaningful and graceful, is a beautiful touch to telling several stories all at once in a single glance! Lovely! hugs, de
