Recently I purchased this beautiful silhouette Nativity stamp. Couldn’t wait to make a few cards with it.
The first card uses a couple of different designer papers from My Mind’s Eye “Oliver” collection. A COPIC Spica Glitter Pen was used to color the Christ child’s halo.
On this second card, the image was stamped directly onto the designer paper.
A Paper Crimper was used across the bottom of the card for some added interest and dimension.
With designer paper used as a background, the third card has a simple design.
Just for fun, little black rhinestones were added to the embossed scallop.
On the fourth and final card the image was again stamped directly onto the designer paper.
Slowly but surely my Christmas cards are getting done! Just a little more time left. Happy Crafting!

Susan, these are beautiful Christmas cards. Wonderful combinations of colors, layouts and gorgeous details.
One is more beautiful than the other.
I likewise love them all Susan. But – my favorite is the one with the scallop embossed border & little rhinestones. It’s simply beautiful!
These are just fantastic, I love how the same stamp can look so different, I will have to say the second is my favorite, I just think the stamping on the designer paper and the kraft gives it such a great look and the crimping is a cool touch too!
I love the versatility of silhouette images, and you’ve made some beautiful cards! I love the use of raffia, and need to pull mine out and use it!
lovely image and great group of cards! I think the green is my fave. 🙂
These are wonderful. It’s always great to see how you can use one stamp set in different ways. My favorite is the last one.
