A Christmas prayer

It can be difficult choosing a card to send to someone who you know is going to have a sad Christmas , so this card was made with such a person in mind. This kind of card calls for something simple and thoughtful - it's not appropriate to put lots of 'fanciness' on the card.

The image was taken from an old card, so this is another card for Papercraft star 24: green holidays using recycled or repurposed items. I just mounted the image on to a foiled frame.


This is for these challenges:

Tuesday throwdown 28: clean & simple

Kort o mania 29: Christmas card
Crafty Hos theme challenge: a card for any religious holiday
Spoon full of sugar 133: Christmas card
Let's craft and create 8: it's Christmas
