Nativity Scene Svgs

I made this simpler nativity scene for my luminary.
I think it could also be used for etching. As there are few internal details,
you should be able to remove the large piece as shown on my paper, leaving behind an pattern to apply to glass for etching.





Here is the file in svg format:

The other one had more detail than we needed. I will give you that file too, if you are using vinyl AND transfer tape, you may want to try it. There is still a lot of "weeding" of tiny pieces required. I don't think I have the patience for making many!


The original pdf with all the detail(you might use for etching):

The pdf with some detail removed to make it easier to use, especially if you are using the cut out piece on a luminary or scrapbook page:

Now some other tips:

There is frosted glass vinyl. If you cut your silhouette out of the vinyl and put it on glass or vinyl, it looks like it has been etched. Check out this blog:

Here is an example of a nativity made of vinyl and placed on glass. I DID NOT MAKE THIS EXAMPLE. I AM GIVING YOU AN SVG FILE I converted from a pdf found on the internet that looks like the file used. Someone is claiming this as an original creation but the file has been around for a long time, according to other users.

I saw a 10 ft roll on ebay, that was about $21.00 with shipping. I haven’t tried this yet.When I was searching the net, I found companies that make things for your sliding doors, etc, out of this stuff, and it looks amazing. Nice thing is, you can change it. Hint: another source of patterns to cut on the Cricut!


Oh..one more file:

Nativity scene components which has multiple images of the three kings, Mary and Joseph and Baby Jesus, as well as all the animals, so you can make your own Nativity Scenes.

Can I ask where you found this font or clip art? I would like to make christmas present with this and I can't find one that I like. I have a vinyl cutter and was wanting to use that. Thanks
