Another Christmas card to share today.
I used a set of preloved Pretty Quick 'Silent Night' dies I bought a couple of years ago. I die cut the Nativity scene in navy blue. The words and small stars were backed with yellow card, before layering on a piece of blue ombré card. I then inlaid the large star and halo with yellow card. The large decorative mat is die cut using silver holographic card - which was a nightmare to try and photograph!
I am joining in the following challenges with this card:
My second card uses a digi stamp I chose with a gift voucher I won a month or two ago in the Butterfly Challenge. The digi stamp is Bugaboo 'Floral Butterfly Thank you', which I coloured with Promarkers. I layered the image on a green and a yellow mat.
I am joining in the following challenges:
I've hopped over from Beccy's Place. The holographic mat is beautiful behind your Nativity scene. That's a great image from Bugaboo too. I might just have to add that to my collection.
ReplyDeleteA really super Nativity scene, love the blue background and the addition of the yellow.
ReplyDeleteGreat second card too. Thank you for joining our 'Candles/Lights challenge at Allsorts.

I have that holographic paper as you say very hard to photograph but it looks fabulous IRL. The thankyou card is on my dinning room dresser and also looks fabulous IRL. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful Nativity scene, Liz.

Hugs, Liv

A beautiful nativity scene Liz and the holographic background really pops, and the Bugaboo image is very pretty and love your colour choices...a lovely choice with your gift voucher. x
ReplyDeleteThey are both really pretty Liz. The holographic card looks awesome behind the nativity scene.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards Liz, the holographic frame really sets off the Nativity scene in the first card- can imagine how difficult it was to get a decent photo. The second card is so pretty, love the image :) design and colours.- and thanks for entering this week's challenge at Catch the Bug, pleased to see you there.
