School Nativity Accordion Card

My friend Kathy and I are totally in love with Karen Burniston's amazing accordion die.  All of Karen's dies are really hot and very much in demand at the moment and I think Kathy probably bought the last one in stock in the UK and I had to buy mine from a lovely lady in America via EBay.  Kathy is really creative and mentioned making a Christmas nativity themed card using the gorgeous stamps from Lili of The Valley.  We joked about having a race to see who could finish one first.  Kathy is brilliant at colouring with her Pro-markers and always seems to know which colours will work the best but it always takes me ages to chose my colours so naturally Kathy finished her card whilst I was still dithering over which shade of green to use!  Anyway, colours picked, four hours of colouring, some shading with Prisma pencils and a little bit of glitter glue and this is my finished card. I could have further embellished the card but I think the design is the main focal point so I don't want lots of embellishments to detract from that, perhaps I might do more embellishing on my next card.  I have to say they are a nightmare to photograph but so amazingly different to normal cards and I can't wait to make some more.
