February Rudolph Day

I was so pleased when my January Rudolph Day card was a Top Pick in the January challenge and Helen invited me to be Guest Designer on the February Rudolph Day challenge.  My RD theme for this year is die cutting and I've used a Nativity Bauble die for my card.

To make this card I used:
     5" x 5" white matt card blank
     Memory Box 'Nativity Bauble' dies
     Snippets of white matt card card, dark blue pearlescent card, gold mirri and Funky Fossil 'In To The Blue' paper

I trimmed a piece of white matt card so it was slightly smaller than the card blank.  I die cut the Nativity Bauble from the centre of the panel before attaching it to the card.  I die cut the bauble from dark blue pearlescent card and inlaid it into the aperture.  I then die cut the Bauble again from the snippet of Funky Fossil paper and inlaid it into the bauble.  To finish I die cut the two stars from gold mirri, layered them and attached them to the top of the bauble.

I am entering the following challenges:
     ABC Christmas Challenge - D is for Die Cuts
     A Cut Above - Anything Goes with a Die Cut
     Allsorts - Shades of Blue
     Krafty Chicks Challenge - CAS
     Little Red Wagon - Winter Blues

I love this teardrop shaped bauble with the nativity scene backed with a pretty blue paper within Kath, and the layered gold star hanging from the top finishes it beautifully. x

Love your idea of a theme for the year, takes away some of the dilemma of what to do. And this one is really lovely with the teardrop shape. Perfect at Alsorts as well, many thanks.
