BELIEVE IN THE BABE
Believe in the Babe of Bethlehem
The Title Says It All
In recent years, each Christmas season we see the word "Believe" showing up in holiday decor items. But what does THAT mean? Believe in what?
Of course, for many people, it is assumed that the word means believe in Santa Claus. However, the Christmas story, the REAL story is not about a jolly man in a red suit. In fact, St. Nicholas himself knew about and reverenced Jesus.
The Design
The card is 5 x 7" in shades of soft teal, taupe and aqua, with accents of gold foil cardstock.
I created this card as a reminder of the truth about Christmas. The Babe of Bethlehem, of course, refers to Jesus who is the entire reason for CHRISTmas. In fact, one fabulous Christmas store in Frankenmuth has become world-famous for its size and Christmas decorations, trees and ornaments. Busloads of people flock to Bronner's year round to experience the sparkle and delights the store holds.
What I (and thousands of others) love is that Bronner's specializes in Nativity sets and scenes, and Christmas items that are all about the birth of Jesus, who was and still is, Saviour of the World.
Poem Inside: My Christmas Wish for You
I wrote this special poem especially for Christmas 2020. It was a sad time of lockdowns and despair. Yet, the beauty of Christmas was not lost by those who treasure its meaning and joy.
I'd love to know your thoughts about this card.
