First the good news. I was selected to be a guest designer at
I've done a guest spot before but only on the sites my sister is a DT for. That had some nepotism involved so I'm glad I was actually picked this time.
Our challenge is to use something from your home to inspire you. Well I was having some stressful couple of weeks and not feeling very inspired. Then the young women at our church put up the Christmas tree. I saw it the next week. It was covered in some beautiful decorations but also it is a giving tree. There are things hung up around it that you can pick and get a gift for a family in need or maybe do a service for one. There are all kinds of things to pick from. Each one helps a family in need.
This made me think of the gifts that were brought to Jesus by the three wise men. I have had this stamp for years and never used it. I wanted it to be simple with no embellishing so that the image was the only focus.
I hope you enjoy this card and remember Jesus and all the good He did. Use His example to guide you in all you do.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

This is such a fantastic card on so many levels! First off, I love that you kept with the beautiful traditional silhouette of the wise men. Next, I thought it was brilliant of you to pair it with colored snowflakes! That was a great twist to see on a classic image.
