Welcome to week 10 of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop for 2026. A group of creative friends from the Art with Heart team are back with our Annual Heart of Christmas blog hop. Follow through the blogs each Monday night until the end of November for Christmas card inspiration.

This week I have made a Faux Spotlight Card I suppose your could call it. I have taken the Nativity scene from the Rejoice Stamp set and simply spotlighted Mary, Joseph and Baby Jesus! Normally you would have all the rest of the scene as well but today I have added the Silent Night music from Yuletide Carols DSP as the perfect accompaniment!

Really simple card to make so you can make heaps for your friends! Let's see the finer details.

For this card I have a base of Early Espresso accompanied by a layer of Gold Foil and Basic White before adding the Yuletide Carols DSP which I carefully selected and cut out the portion featuting Silent Night.

For my Spotlight feature, I stamped the beautiful Nativity scene from the Rejoice Stamp Set using Early Espresso ink. To add a little shimmer and softness, I used my Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to gently pull the ink and create colour on the robes. I then brought the characters to life by colouring their faces with Light Crumb Cake and Mary's hair with Dark Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends.

Once coloured, I cut the image out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and layered it onto a coordinating Early Espresso die-cut.

Of course I had to add a little bling so I have coloured the new White Textured Ribbon in Dark Pecan Pie Srampin' Blends to add under our spotlight and some Natural Matte Dotts (Last Chance so get in quick). The White Textured Ribbon is part of the Timeless Christmas Suite!

Because I couldn't help myself I have decorated the inside with a sentiment and lots of stars!
