I used this week's Viva La Verve sketch for my card along with this wonderful sentiment and image from Beyond Measure. Love using this earthy colour pallet for Christmas cards! I wanted my doily to fit across the card so I cut it in half to make it bigger. Shadow stamped the wise men image under the sentiment and added a gold half pearl to the star to tie in with the gold twine.
