I started with a clear plastic dome, and then added some die cuts!

To get started I used our Stitched Arches Die and cut two of the smallest size arch on heavy cardstock!

Locate dark blue cardstock, apply Creek Bank Creations Super Tacky tape to the back.  Then cut two pieces 3"x3".  Place the Mary Joseph edge die from the Creek Bank Creations Nativity Edges set on the top edge and die cut both pieces.

Locate the smallest double stitched arch die and place it over the dark blue pieces you already cut.  Cut the shape into the arch shape. Do this with both pieces! 

Locate kraft cardstock and apply Creek Bank Creations Super Tacky Tape to the back.  Then cut two pieces 2.5" high by 3" wide.  Place the baby Jesus die on the 3" side and die cut. 

Use the Creek Bank Creations Thanks Be To God stamp to stamp the sentiment "tis the reason" on the bottom edge of the craft piece.  You'll want to place that sentiment .25" above the bottom edge.  Stamp with black ink. 

Place the smallest Double stitched arch die over the craft pieces and die cut them.  It is a tight fit but it does work! 

Layer the dark blue piece, and the craft piece onto the white small arch you previously die cut. 

Locate Creek Bank Creations Double Sided Foam Adhesive and cut one circle with Creek Bank Creations Stitched die.  The circle needs to be 2.5" wide. Cut a second 2.5" circle from white cardstock.

Apply the cardstock to the front of the circle.  Cut the foam circle in half cutting it directly down the middle.  I put my foam circle in my paper cutter to cut it.  My Fiskars trimmer did not cut all the way through so I finished cutting with my scissors.  

Place liquid adhesive on the cut side of the circle and adhere it to one of the double stich arches.  Make sure you adhere it so that the paper is facing UP.  (red arrow below).  

Complete this set with both pieces.  You need two of them.

When the adhesive is set adhere the two pieces together on the back!

Adhere Creek Bank Creations silver stars with tiny dots of liquid glue to the top of each dome. 

Adhere the two backs together with liquid glue.

Peel the adhesive liner off the bottom and adhere the arch into the base of the plastic dome.

Place some silver stars in the bottom and close the dome!

Accent the top with a bow, and add a decorative strip around the bottom!
