This afternoon as I was making this card, the song from Handel's Messiah "For Unto Us A Child is Born" kept going through my head, so I found a beautiful version on Youtube and kept playing it (and singing along) as I finished the card! I love to hear the Messiah! When I was in college, every CHRISTmas season, we would sing "The Hallelujah Chorus." (Well, I would try... I cannot even listen to that song without crying!) It was so beautiful to hear thousands of voices raised in praise to the Lord! I'm so thankful for this season as we focus on Christ's birth!
So here is my card... made with Little Bethlehem from Doodle Pantry. (This is a set of Laurie's formerly sold at CDS)
(My printer made the roofs blue!) |
Here you can see everything you get with Little Bethlehem set...
Because our printer is having issues now, instead of using the digi paper (it looks too dull!) I used MME Sweater Weather. I embossed the corner with Darice "Ivy Corner," distressed the edges with TH "vintage photo," added a bit of hemp, and a Prima flower and a brad.
