For the last year or so I have been making my own cards for certain things as the cards I find in the shops seem either incredibly overpriced or tacky.
At Christmas and Easter in particular, cards seem to be either nothing to do with Christmas or they use 1970 meek and mild baby Jesus pictures, with a nice comfortable stable which smeeled sweet, which I dislike intensely!
Yesterday I spent part of the day being creative by producing this Christmas card to send to my financial supporters. I wanted to show this was no meek and mild baby, but that this was a baby that had come with a mission, the painful task of saving the world.
I was quite pleased with this result. I was even more pleased when the house’s resident artist, aka Tom, said they were cool!
ooh, I’ve been making my own cards too, with glitter and glue! Lots of fun but I fear they are not that cool 🙂 I know how you feel about the cards. I made a card that read “little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes” and a picture of Mary saying “I wish!” Oh, and one of Mary, Joseph and the donkey, crossing snow-covered hills, saying “Funny weather for Israel!” 😀
