Christmas Card Club Challenge #12 ~ Nativity

Hi Crafters,
Hope you are well and getting plenty of crafting done.
Life has been a bit hectic here for the past fortnight and so my post for the Christmas Card Club is a couple of days late. Our challenge was set by Sue J. and was a great theme - Nativity - however, having searched through my stash of stamps and digi's I could not find anything to fit the bill, I have Christmas trees, Santa's, Snowmen, Snowflakes and all manner of Christmas goodies but not ...a Nativity scene. Then after seeing some of the great inspirational cards from the other members of our group I had a light bulb moment and remembered the extensive range of cut files that they have at the Silhouette Cameo store. I tend to overlook my Cameo and it's versatility. The fact is that it sits at the back of my table and tends to be partially covered in all manner of things as I rummage through boxes and drawers looking for things that I know I have somewhere but can't quite remember exactly where. ( Am I the only one who does this?....please say I'm not). It also has to be pulled forward from the wall to allow room for the cutting mat to freely go back and forth so this means clearing a space for that too. I'm in desperate need of a re-org in my craftroom I think and it is well overdue. Over the years I have collected quite a lot of crafty goodies and my room is bursting at the seams so I think it's time so ask Hubby for some more shelves.
Sorry, waffle over and on to the card....

The scene was cut from black cardstock and 3D on top of a night sky scene made using Distress Inks. I added some tiny gems for stars. The words were also cut using my Cameo and the glitter snowflakes are a mix of Marianne Designs  and Cheery Lynn dies.
