Hello! Welcome to Day 5 of the Penny Black blog hop!
Latisha here and I created a holiday card using the 40-437 We Three Kings stamp from Penny Black, along with some of my favorite Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L products.
As you can see, I spent a great deal coloring in this image with copic markers, however if you do not like to color, this would be just as beautiful paper pieced. To make my card have more dimension, I added Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares (white, regular) in between layers. Adding Creative Photo Corners (white & kraft) on each corner, helped to frame the card. Keeping your eyes on the center of the card as the focal point.
Instructions:
1. Cut/score kraft cardstock.
2. Diecut pattern paper, add Photo Corners Kraft on each corner.
3. Apply 3D Foam Squares to the diecut panel, and adhere to the card front.
4. Stamp image in black ink, onto white cardstock.
5. Diecut the image.
6. Color in image with Copic Markers.
7. Distress the edges of the diecut
8. Add Creative Photo Corners White to each corner.
9. Apply Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares to the back of the die cut & adhere to the card.

What a beautiful Holiday card your coloring is beautiful but as you say there are other ways to do this. Foiling, Microsoft glitter, line drawing and as you mentioned paper piecing. I think no matter how you decide to do these images they are reagal and stunningly beautiful!
