Directions: 1st - I started with A2 Neenah solar white. I used Black Momento ink to stamp the image. I stamped out the image 5 times. 2nd -  I colored the night sky, embellishing the night sky with Nuvo drops. Now set this aside.
3rd - On the next stamped image I colored the window frame, haybale, 2 shovels, crib and bucket. Then I fussy cut out the window, crib, haybale, bucket, 2 shovels. Please when cutting out the fork keep the hay attached.  I used C09 to edge all the pieces. I colored the crib, the hay, 2 forks, bucket. I set the pieces aside.
 Cut out total of 4 Cribs including the color one. Now 3 haybales including the colored one. The 2nd layer please keep the fork attached to the hay.  I cut the fork apart from the handle to get the right effect.
Glue the layers together and set aside. Starting with the base layer, I used to PanPastels the white and yellow for the beam shining on baby Jesus, then I added extra yellow for the beams. Then I used my white gel pen to add more definitions in the beams. Then I used the glitter brush to give more definition to my beams. Then I use I used more PanPastels in this order starting on the inside working out. Rust, brown and blue. I used brown for the floor.  Now it's time to glue all the pieces down where they belong.
It's hard to see all the different layers in my picture. It look amazing in person.  I hope my notes make sense. Have a wonderful day.
