Today's Inspiration Challenge is the Vineyard Marketplace website. I was inspired by this Nativity set
I used birch bark wrapping paper from Pier 1 Imports for the barn and the Holy Family - embossing the stampings in black. I layered the pieces over a cream textured Bazzill card base with foam dots, I die cut the star out of gold paper and added the wooden stars.
Kent and I went on safari in Kenya 20 years ago (BEST TRIP EVER!!!) and I purchased a Nativity similar to the ones on this site.
I'm also linking this to the Merry Monday Christmas Challenge - use stars.
This is stunning! I really liked the nativity sets on this site too!! How cool that you brought one home from Kenya! Your card is stunning!!! Love the woodgrain paper and the wooden stars!
