This is the Season of Wonder set and it's just beautiful. I chose to use a PRE-COLORED image for my card. I used the digital paper that comes with the set, as well as one of the sentiments. I cut the manger using my Silhouette Cameo. I distressed it with a little bit of black ink. I printed the colored image and used a bit of blue ink to distress it. The straw roof is actually a cut file called reeds and was cut using the Silhouette Cameo. I cut them in several different sizes to be able to add layers. I also put a few pieces in the rafters and at the bottom of the manger. I added the star charm to the top of the roof. The sentiment was printed on white card stock, cut with a Spellbinder's die and distressed with dark blue ink. This was adhered to the pattern paper from the set, then dark blue card stock and finally a white card stock base.
I am entering this card in the following challenges:
