Stampendous - Focus on the Sentiment, Sweet Stampin - Out of the Frame, CSAYL #25 - Non traditional Colors, CCAYR - Kids and Unscripted Sketches #173

Hello friends -  I'm really excited about this card as it turned out exactly as I had "dreamed" it and I think it is just too cute (sorry to toot my own horn - just can't help it)!  Hope you like it too. 

I am entering this card in the following five challenges:
Sweet Stampin' - Out of the Frame where they want to see part of the image sticking out of the frame. My image (the three wise men) is sticking out of the word frame.

Christmas Cards All Year Round - Kids

Christmas Stampin' All Year Long #25 - Non Traditional Colors (mine are blue, yellow/gold and razzleberry).  I think my pattern is a bit non-traditional too. 

Unscripted Sketches #173 (see below) which I have flipped and loosely interpretted the four squares in the sketch to be the three wise men and the gifts they are bearing. 
 
I'm also entering this card for the first time over at the Stampendous  Challenge Blog where the theme for August is Focus on the Sentiment.  
 
Thanks so much for stopping by today to see my card - I'm sure glad that  you did!  Til next time... Hugs and Happy Crafting!
 
Supplies: Cardstock (base and layering) Rich Razzleberry (SU) and Summer Sun (a retired SU color) and Neenah Solar White.  DSP - International Bazaar (SU).  Stamps - "First Christmas" and "Wise Kiddos" both from Stampendous.  The poem is colored and stamped with Rich Razzleberry ink (SU). I tore the edges around the poem and ran a copic marker around the edge for some definition.  The darling kids were stamped with Memento Ink (black) and colored Copic markers and Spica gel pens.  I also added a touch of glitter around the trim of their coats with my SU dazzling details white glitter glue.  I popped the three wise men (kiddos) up with SU dimension dots (got them a bit crooked from where I initially wanted them - but they were not coming back up without a fight - so you might need to tilt your head just a bit to get the best view of my card - lol).
