Fun Fold Friday- Peaceful Nativity Bridge Card


I can not tell you how much I love how this Fun Fold card using the Peaceful Nativity stamp set turned out! I was inspired by another Demonstrator on Pinterest but did not have the the same Designer Series Paper (DSP) that she used and came up with this design instead! Can you just swoon with me for a minute...ahh love it! 

Here is what is stamped on the back and blank space for some extra writing. You could totally not add this piece to yours and leave the cardbase color but I think it really adds to the feel of this card.  


The fun part of this card is all of the different views it offers. At this angle the Christ child is the focus and the star can be seen even more! The stable frames this scene just right and I love it!



Also, don't worry, the Bridge card folds down flat and fits nicely into an A2- style envelope! 
I hope you love this card too and watch my video to see that is isn't too hard to make! You can make it too by shopping with me at my online store and following the directions below.
