Silent Night

Over at Christmas Challenges with Sketches there is a fabulous sketch for us to follow.  Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge has a theme of Nativity so I combined the two to create my card:


8 x 8 card blank

Stamps from Pink Gem designs, coloured with coloursoft pencils, blended with baby oil.  I have paper-pieced Joseph's robe using one of the backing papers.

Backing papers are all Papermania inked around the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

I used Grace's Frame embossing folder to create the mat the images are sat on.

Marianne Poinsettia die used, glitter added to finished flowers.

The sentiment is a Lili of the Valley stamp.

I would also like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp - Paper piecing.

Stamping For Pleasure - Rudolph Day - create a Christmas Card

Oh well done! I have never made an 8x8 card as that huge space is just too scary to fill! You've done a great job. Terrific nativity card.

Thanks for joining in with Rudolph Day.
