String Art Nativity Star

Hey there - thought I'd pop in with my third and final card for Christmas Kickstart Challenge #107 where the theme is "A Christmas Sing-Along". Once again I used "Joy to the World" as my song - I've sung it more times than I can count! My favorite arrangement was an 8-part chart done by a local Barbershopper that my chorus did with our brothers in harmony.


Supplies: Paper - Anchor Paper Cardstock;
Recollections Glitter Cardstock;
Momenta watercolor printed paper
Dies - Birch Press Design String Art Nativity Star (retired)
Other - Spellbinders puffy sticker sentiment

Big thanks to Diva sister Arlene (A Bit of This and That) who sent me the BPD star die set. Thought it was the perfect time to use it & die cut it from glitter cardstock. I had made a Nativity card last week with a steel blue card base and decided to use another one here. 

This die cuts out a lot of bits! Didn't care to inlay all of them but thought it would look pretty to die cut the halo portion from some yellow cardstock and inlay those bits. A puffy sentiment sticker from a Spellbinders card kit finished the card. Quick and easy & I love the look! Sadly this die is retired, nor could I find it at my favorite spots for finding older products.

That's it for today, friends. I hope you're having a crafty week and thanks for visiting!!

What an amazing die. It looks amazing cut from glitter card and I wouldn't try and inlay all those pieces either. there are some things that you just have to draw the line on xx

What a stunning card, Linda. The steel blue is perfect with the silver. I do enjoy reading your posts where you mention singing as my dad also sings. He's been in so many choirs and loved his years in the Barbershop group. Thanks for playing along at the Christmas Kickstart with carol and me, Jo x

Beautiful Christmas card, Linda! Love the silver glitter/navy blue combo. Joy to the World is one of my favorite Christmas songs, too.
