Christmas Shepherd Layer CardCompleted by Shelagh E Osborn Wright

I printed the plain insert and envelope sheets on 160g paper,the bottom layer on textured card,middle layer on smooth card and the top layer on Crafty Bob's glossy paper and cut it all out.

I cut out the white parts of the middle and top layers and followed the instructions on the sheet to make up the card in layers.

I used DST to glue the bottom layer,foam pads and silicone for the top layer and sheep. I also watched the very useful cup TV episode 118 which shows Joanna Swinton making a layered card.

I used yellow stickles on the star over the stable, for the sheep bells and for Baby Jesus' manger and red stickles for the sheep collars.

A touch of icicle stickles was given to the stars on the top layer (can't see in the photo,but it's quite sparkly!) I added a gold glitter straight edge border to the top layer for some added sparkle.

The greeting was added with 3mm foam pads.The lambs are so adorable and perfect to complete this Crib scene with little shepherd boy.

The result of all the different layers together is really stunning. Thankyou for this lovely design for Christmas.
