There's a lot of fun and fabulous new products included in the November Reverse Confetti release this month! I had a ball creating this cute nativity scene using the new Adore Me stamp set! I always love creating cards and projects highlighting the true meaning of Christmas and these cute images couldn't be any sweeter!
I love this new Brilliance background! I die cut it from white cardstock and then added Distress Oxide ink around the edges to create the night sky. I left the middle white so that it would light up the scene, just like the star would in real life. Once that was done, I added some white paint splatter to give the illusion of stars twinkling in the background.
I stamped the stable, the birds, and baby Jesus, Joseph, and Mary using black ink and then colored them using an assortment of alcohol markers. I die cut the star from glitter cardstock and heat embossed the sentiment in gold onto a strip of vellum.
I used the coordinating Adore Him Confetti Cuts to die cut the images. I added them to the card using foam squares for dimension. The glitter star is popped up right over the top of the stamped image.
I wrapped the vellum sentiment around the panel and secured it with adhesive on the back. I attached the entire panel to a top folding Navy blue card base using foam squares. I added a few moonshine sequins to give the card some additional sparkle!
My next card uses the fun and funky Retro Holiday stamp set! I adore retro Christmas cards; they evoke sweet memories from my childhood that I love! I also used the new snowy sentiments (which I believe is a freebie) for the bottom of the card.
I used the ornament die cut rather than the stamps and die cuts together. I wanted the ornaments to have a solid look with the gold glitter circle.
I used a lot of the little images in the set to give the card that true retro look! I chose an unexpected color combo, but one that is truly 60s inspired!
I added one of the foliage clusters from the older Lanterns stamp set to give the card some added detail. I glued a few sequins to the centers of the star/snowflake images for sparkle. I also added some glitter to the ornaments and the image! Don't forget to hop along to the other participating designers' blogs to see what they've created! Thanks for fluttering by!
