Nativity Christmas Ornament

I have an ornament similar to this that I have had since I was a kid. I wanted to try my hand at recreating it myself. Due to the fact that this requires supports on the inside of the ball, I decided to make this like a "ship in the bottle" type model. The Nativity silhouette pieces are printed laying flat, with the star and stable assembled outside the ornament, and then glued in place.

-=[EDIT]=-

I have, as per request, added a version of the ornament without the '2017' date embossed on the back. You can either use it as is, or add your own date to it.
