We Three Kings

Hello!

I am starting to get in to the swing of making festive cards - today I have a card for the current CASology challenge where the cue card is Three:

I masked a square from the cardstock panel and created an inked landscape with torn paper and distress inks.  The stamps are from Clarity Stamp and the sentiment is from Clearly Besotted - it has three words in it to continue the CASology theme!  I like how this turned out - do you?


I will also link up at Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge which is to create your own backgrounds.

I will put this in as a cheeky entry at Addicted to CAS where the code word is oriental.  Given the Christmas carol says 'we 3 kings of orient are' I guess that they fit in with the oriental theme :)

Finally I will link up at the Merry Monday challenge as the theme this week is transportation - thanks for the tip, Ardyth!  I have never played in this challenge before but it looks really fun and may just keep me on track with my Christmas card making :)

Thanks for stopping by - I really appreciate it....

      I've been waiting for this interpretation! I would have done it myself - I often use the 3 wisemen on their camels for 'transportation' challenges, too! So glad you joined us at CASology with this beautiful ly sponged card.

    Do I love it? Yes, I do. The background is fabulous and using the wise men as the three, along with three words is just perfect.

    What a stunning background, Sarah, those sand layers are fabulous! Love how the one wise man off the edge of the inked panel adds to the sense of movement! Anita :)
