This card featured today is very simple. The set of 6 actually came together quite fast. The story behind the card for me is actually longer than the card took to make!
The first part of this is the silhouette. As a child, I read a book series that featured only a few silhouette images at chapter title pages and sprinkled around the story. Every time I see those types of images, it's a sweet memory. I make sure every school I teach at has these in the library.
This stamp set is called Every Blessing.
The Bible verse is another. Each Christmas my church had a Christmas Program like so many still do. From kindergarten we had verses in the program. Each year the parts got longer - but the one I couldn't wait to get to were the narrations done by the oldest kids. They introduced each section with a part of their own. It was always one of the iconic verses of the Christmas story. I couldn't wait to get to do mine when the time came! This was always one that stood out for me. It was so exciting to have it featured in a stamp set.
The inside verses come from a stamp set called Versatile Christmas. They are supposed to be a pair for the front and interior of a card, but they just worked here with the image on the front.
If you don't currently have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, I'd be thrilled to talk with you about furthering your crafting pursuits!
