Nativity at Christmas Card Club

 Good morning.  This is the second challenge for our Christmas Card Club where we make a Christmas card every other week in order to be ahead of the game come November. Margaret has chosen the theme and she wants to see the Nativity which is , of course, the reason for the season. I am a day early with my card and the rest of the girls will be posting on Sunday.

Card 1

 
 
For this card I used the Memory Box Starlit Nativity Scene. I cut it twice, once in black and again silver then pieced the two leaving me the opposite colourway to make a second card. For some reason I didn't notice the glue stains until  I had taken the picture.  However they came off easily with the glue eraser. Why is it you always see faults after the picture has been taken?
 
Card 2

 
 
This is my "Go To" die for Christmas using  a Crafter's Companion Create a Card die. I love it and it is so easy to do. I have used the last of my beautiful glitter card but hopefully I can get some more because  it puts me in mind of the sand in the desert from where the Magi made their long journey.

Well that's it from me today. Take care and enjoy the weekend. Mind you all days are the same now aren't they during lockdown?

    The black with the silver on the first card is really stunning. Good that you have enough to make a second card in the opposite colourway. hugs mrs A.
