I couldn't resist this lovely new stamp from Crafty Individuals. It arrived today and I could hardly wait to get it inky. It's called The Star in the East. Looks like 'O Little Town' to me......
Please excuse the poor photo. I embossed with gold powder and the glare meant I needed to take the picture from a strange angle. I'll try again tomorrow. I kept it simple. I used an Ultramarine brusho wash for the background and then used distress inks and my waterbrush to colour the roofs.

I saw that new Crafty Individuals stamp advertised recently and was tempted. It looks really good, very middle eastern. Great card.

What a fabulous little scene you've created! I can see why you were excited to work with this stamp and WOW! You really brought it to life! I love how you colored the roofs for some added oomph and they blend perfectly with the sophisticated browns and golds that you chose. This is such a refreshingly unique card and I'm so glad you shared it with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
Love this stamp too, but I will resist.. I already have a few (!!!) Christmas stamps.
