Come to Bethlehem - Creative Sketches CS46S

This week's challenge here uses a Triptych as a focal point of the sketch.  I had to look up what the work Triptych meant as I had not come across that word before.
Triptych:  a word of Greek origin which refers to a work of art (usually a panel painting) which is divided in 3 sections.

Stamps: Come to Bethlehem, Petite Pairs
Inks: Versa Mark, Basic black
Papers: Basic Black, Crumb Cake, Mocha Morning Specialty Paper, Whisper White, Brushed Gold
Accessories: Snow burst embossing folder, Top Note die, Modern word label punch, Word label punch, Black brad, Iridescent ice embossing powder, White embossing powder, Gold embossing powder, Versa marker

The image was embossed with white embossing powder on basic black card stock.  The stars were embossed with gold embossing powder.\
Each of the 3 panels was matted with brushed gold card stock.
The Whisper White top note was double embossed - the snow burst embossing folder with iridescent ice embossing powder.
