Nativity or anything goes at CCC

Good morning to you! Another fortnight has rolled by and its time to show what I made for the latest CCC theme which is 'Nativity'. As usual we have the option of anything goes and that is what I went for this time around. Its a bit of a twist on bearing gifts though!


I made 4 very similar cards by first creating the gelli background, using paperartsy stamps in the top corners and then adding my Tim Holtz diecut elf with parcels on top. Very simple but I was desperate to use this little fella!

My mu went along the proper theme:


In this card she created the background then added diecuts from sizzix.


In this one the main feature is from Claritystamps.

I think they're both lovely and almost wish I had done the theme! Nevermind!
Have a great Sunday!
Hugs
