A Child Is Born - Misty Moonlight

A Child Is Born

This weeks Monochromatic Insta Hop color is Misty Moonlight. I've been planning this card for a week and to be honest, it surpassed my expectations. I'm so in love with this card!

A Child Is Born

I had this idea of gentle rays coming from the brightest star, so I heat embossed the holy family, then I applied mask over the top. I created the mask by stamping the holy family on the masking paper, then fussy cut it out. I applied the mask over the heat embossed image, then used a blending brush, ink and the edge of cardstock to create the subtle rays. It was a few extra steps but I think the end result is totally worth it!
