Christmas tree friends + winter night sky ~ MFT Stamps

Hello.  Today, I am playing with My Favorite Things stamps and dies.  And, I am participating in their sketch challenge using winter stamps.

Sentiment:  Merry Christmas to my amazing, beautiful, wonderful friend.

For this sweet winter night scene, I paired these sweet friends against a snowy night sky.  

For the sky, I stamped and embossed first in gold.  Then, I rotated the stamp a bit and restamped in white.  This was a tip from Koren Wiskman in one of her MFT videos.  I must say, I will use this background technique often.  This was a joy to create.  

Here is another look.
