Ornate Christmas!

Hello Friends!! I hope you are all enjoying your week and are ready for the weekend!! I know I am!! This weekend will be fun but very busy with the Children's Pagent at church, more decorating in the house and some Christmas shopping!! Tomorrow we get a real Christmas tree and decorate it!! I always enjoy looking at all the ornaments I have received in the past and all the memories that go with it. Christmas can bring such warm memories and I just love the joy the season brings as we remember that most wonderful gift of God, HIS SON. I love all the Christmas carols!!

Anywho...today I would like to share a Christmas card I created.

The background is created with the Ornate Background from ODBD stamped in red on white paper and the bottom is embossed with Sizzix x and o's embossing folder. I added some pearls in each x for texture and elegance.

The sentiment is from ODBD Poinsettia Wreath and is framed with a stamp from ODBD Ornate Borders and Flowers and cut out with the custom ODBD Ornate Borders and flowers die.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you were inspired in some way by my creation. Have a blessed day and weekend!!!

blessings,

For to you is born this day, in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
Luke 2:11

2 Corinthians 8:9 For you know the gracious act of our Lord Jesus Christ, that for your sake he became poor although he was rich, so that by his poverty you might become rich.

John 3: 16 For God so loved the world that he gave ^* his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life.

I am entering this into the Word Art Wednesday challenge which is Anything Goes. Word art Wednesday shares free inspirational scripture and sentiments each week!!

Karen Letchworth said...: This is absolutely gorgeous, Chris. It's SUCH a blessing to have you share your wonderful art with us, and to see uplifting and encouraging art and blog posts shared with us from people like you who love the Lord and desire to honor Him through their art, their lives, and their blogs. We've been under attack at WAW by the enemy, and people who don't understand that we aren't judging people, but simply honoring our precious Lord and Savior by upholding our standards to HIS requirements according to His precious Word. So, having people who love Him play along means SO MUCH. We need to show the world that those who love Him will support others who strive to honor Him, so thanks so much for sharing. I always enjoy seeing your amazing cards shared with us, and pray that God will bless you as you create and share your wonderful creations with us. Have a blessed week.
Hugs,
Karen
