A piece of previously created brusho background came in handy. This piece was done by placing cling film over a wet brusho background, leaving it to dry.
- Penny Black manger die (51-254), die cut with sookwang tape over white c/s, then Ritz Silver microfine glitter applied. Cut the brusho piece to fit behind the circle ornament.
- SU Watercolor Winter for branches & pinecones, using 2 shades of green, with some brown for the pinecones and brown on the branches.
- SU Bells & Boughs for the sentiment
- Crafter's Companion Spirit of Christmas EF

Your nativity scene formed as a Christmas ornament looks so pretty, and it’s beautiful with the greeneries at the top for the ornament to hang from.
ReplyDeleteYour nativity scene overlaying the brusho cling film background is so beautiful. What a great idea to use the sook wang tape for the glitter. I will have to try to remember this idea! It gives your nativity such a beautiful contrast to the bauble background.
ReplyDeletePerfect nativity scene Mary ...loving the background...great card xxx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work Mary - a really lovely card! Hugs Rachel x

ReplyDeleteOh I love this Mary. The little nativity scene inside the bauble is beautiful and then there's the embossing of the deer and fir trees too, all of it makes a beautiful card.

ReplyDeleteYour bauble looks just fabulous, wow! I have to try the technique about cling film over brusho background.... another thing in my "to do" list! :D The Nativity silhouette is delightful and the EF adds a really pretty interest to the card design! Well done!

Stunning Mary. How clever to have your nativity scene be a bauble hanging from the bough of the pine. The brusho background is perfect for it too. Very nice work indeed!

This is a gorgeous card Momma Mary! I love how your nativity scene turned out and love that it is an ornament hanging down from the pine branches. So pretty, so organic and so Christmas! Love the piece of brusho you created-makes for a great night sky! I also love the soft embossing of the deer and trees-I would have never thought to use an embossing folder this way, but it works and looks amazing! You knock this challenge out the park! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful Christmas card, my friend! Love that Nativity die and your Brusho piece makes a perfect sky! Love the all that white embossing in the background!

ReplyDeleteHi Mary,
ReplyDeleteoh my word I do love this suoer and brilliant card.
I love your wonderful design you have created.
The blue background looks so rich and gorgeous.
The the white embossing makes it pop so perfectly with the Nativity die cut bauble, and then to finalize it nicely you have stamped the fir branches and pine cones.
A very effective and exceelent make.
