I cut a panel using Simon Says Stamp stitched rectangle die and stamped and embossed using cobalt blue powder. The stamp is Crafty Individuals Three Kings of Christmas. Then I sprinkled turquoise brusho on the top and ultramarine for the sand, spritzed with water and moved the colours around with a brush. A quick way to get a watercolour wash. I stuck the panel onto a dark blue base. I think the colours are much more intense in the real. I rarely do quick so maybe, for a change, I might make a few of these. Maybe in different colours? It's a thought.....

Your embossed Wise men look wonderful against your pretty blue skies. I think you should do more as these have a very hip sort of feel to them!

Gorgous card and lovely colours which look great with the stamp xx
Now I get it... Obviously been working non chronologically through your posts and wondering about the UFOs!
A monochromatic card is excellent for Christmas mass production and with nice stamps (such as the Crafty Individuals) this is all that's required. Lovely!
Three blokes on camels .... I love it!

A lovely Rudolph Day card. I love how you've used the brushos. Barbxx
Super Christmas card. Think it would look great in other colours too.
Love your three wise blokes, the brusho background is beautiful : )
Oh, my goodness......I LOVE this card.
LOL @ 5 min of cleaning up. It takes me longer than 5 minutes to even decide which of the millions of things to put away!! Ha. I haven't been able to craft on my actual craft desk for weeks.....since the fires....so I have taken over the kitchen table now, too. :) It's so much more fun to craft than to organize......
