This is adorable and very easy to make. I am going to make just one minor addition. I want to add the baby Jesus. It's really not a nativity without him. All I need to do is add a small round pink shape to the crib. Put some black lines like his eyes are closed and that's it, he doesn't need a body since just his head will show and maybe just half of that, like from the eyes up.
