Hi Everyone, my card today is for the mid month We Love Stamping Challenge.
The theme for November is Christmas, so off I go to my stamps and put a couple together, here is the result. I die cut a few squares for the design, then coloured the larger one with DO's. I stamped the Nativity in black and the stars in white, which I embossed with white too. As an afterthought, I decided it should have a glow, so out with a stencil, I had cut with my Cameo ages ago. I placed it on top of the square and removed the ink through the stencil with an alcohol wipe, as I had seen some of you do.
The next thing was to stamp the sentiment onto
one of the smaller squares, I used DO ink and embossed it with sparkle
clear powder.
I added all the white card squares to blue card and cut the border with my Mini Perfect layers ruler on the smaller size, then attached them to the base card, with the large and small bottom squares being 3D'd.
There are some fabulous prizes, why don't you join us?
A very stylish design Faith and the eye is drawn immediately to the lovely Nativity scene.

Gorgeous card Faith! I love the "glow" of the stars and I'm intrigued by the alcohol wipe pushing the ink through the stencils...say what?!! I've never seen that done, didn't know that could be done! I love the squares layered up on this card, so pretty with the ones that are popped out farther. Love the true meaning of Christmas, Christmas cards. Hugs, Brenda
