Q How do you approach
a printables project?
A I usually start printables
projects by cutting the
un t s ndard card sizes, and
arranging the various elements until I’m
happy with a layout. Only when I’m happy
will I apply glue.Q And how do you like to finish off
your cards?
A Once all the elements are secured in place,
then it’s time to add the details, like brads,

Q What did you think
bout these printables?
A I loved these printables
s soon as I saw them!
a h us ted a few different
backgrounds, and in particular, the evening
skies over Bethlehem really appealed to me.
I added a front layer to the cards to show the
three wise men travelling, following the star.Q Do you have a top tip for using
these printables?
A Once you’ve printed them out, use a small
pair of scissors to fussy cut your characters
with precision. It will look neater.Take a look at our reader testers’ makes this month!

No words needed
You don’t always need to use a sentiment. Sometimes
the images are enough on their own, like this
heartwarming take on the classic starburst card.Lore Green
Q How did you create
depth in your beautiful
nativity cards?
A I love building scenes
g w thdeth, and these papers are
perfect for that! I like using foam pads, and
often double – or triple – them up to create
depth and interest.Q What did you think about these
nativity printables?
A The artwork is delightful, and I love that
you’ve given them
to us in a range of
sizes. You can
create a sense of
scale by just
arranging the
figures by size- big upfront and
small at the back.
