Nativity Ornament

 Hello Friends

I am right in the middle of making my Christmas cards.  So I thought I would share one of my favorite ones.  It is featuring the beautiful Filigree Nativity Ornament on a mini slimline. Plus I used two other dies to complete the card Pine Spray and Wintery Pine.

Design Steps 

1.  The white mini slimline base folded is 6 1/4 x 3 1/4.  A green piece of card stock cut 6 1/8 x 3 1/8.  A white piece of card stock 3 x 6 run through an embossing folder

2.  Glue the green piece to the card front then add the embossed white piece.  Set aside

3.  On white card stock cut the Filigree Nativity Ornament.  Cut a piece of red glitter card stock to glue behind the ornament.  And take the Filigree Nativity Ornament and place a piece of gold on the top portion of the die and cut out the little piece that will attach to the tree as shown above

4.  Glue the red glitter card stock to the back of the ornment and trim.  Then glue the gold piece to the top of the ornament as shown above

5.  Using the Pine Spray and Wintery Pine dies cut out branches in white and green card stock.  On the card base begin to build the pine branch layers

6.  Add the Nativity Ornament and add a few pine branches at the bottom right side of the ornament

7.   Finish the card by adding the sentiment and a ribbon

I did a second card using teal for the ribbon and ornament with a little darker blue green for the branches

Happy Thanksgiving

 Hello Friends

I love Thanksgiving it is a time to reflect on how blessed we are!  I have so many things to be thankful for.   I give praise to God everyday for the many blessings He has given to me.  

Today I have a fun little card to share.  It is a 5 x 7 card which is a little larger then I usually do.  I needed the space to be able to build my scene with all the fun dies I wanted to use! I am featuring the Pilgrim & Indian Owls, Fall Barrel, Havest Pumpkins and Fall Wagon Wheel.
