CCC Nativity Card

Hello again Everyone. Firstly let me apologise to Maureen for not taking part last time, not well enough to make a card. However, much better this week and Gran Margaret has asked for Nativity this time round. As a child growing up Christmas was a great event with Christmas church services and Christmas parties it really was a lovely time. Nativity plays a big part in primary schools though and I still enjoy a midnight service.  My card for Nativity is an image I received in one of the craft magazines and I really liked it. My base card is grey pearlescent and I matted and layer some blue and white cardstock to enhance the image before adding some ice glitter around the edges. Finished off with a silver bow and some tiny stars.  Our weather in the West Coast of Scotland has changed over this last week, but hopefully the sunshine will return again before winter sets in. Hugs to All Rita xxxx

So glad you are feeling better. This is such a lovely image, and I always like the traditional looks too. Nice colors for the mats, and the sparkle on the framing draws the eye into the wonderful scene. TFS & Hugs

Glad to hear that you are recovering.
Your card is lovely. Great image and I love the added sparkle from the glitter.
I finally made it back to Scotland, 50 years after my first trip. We went to Glasgow, Edinburgh, St Andrews and Inverness. Had a wonderful time and we are already planning another trip to Scotland. There is so much we wanted to see, but ran out of time. You have a beautiful country and live in such a wonderful area.

Such a lovely nativity scene Rita, gorgeous sparkly card!
We just got back from super hot France, so it was lovely to have some cooler weather.

Sorry to hear you were not well, but glad you're feeling better now! Hope we can catch up before too long!
