    Default Christmas Grace

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    I remember when our family
    Was much larger than today
    We'd gather at the table
    For a feast on Christmas Day
    And even though our loved ones
    Are not sitting in these chairs
    They're in our hearts and memories
    And always in our prayers


    I have started working on a foil technique for images and have decided to work on a Christmas card- so any feedback would be appreciated.
    I wrote this poem for the first Christmas without our Mom, so I thought it would be nice to give it as a Christmas card to my family.

    I know it will be a wonderful gift for everyone in your family, Denise. The words and the image are both great.

    Really lovely Denise. It's good to see you thinking about making some cards - I've only been harping on you to do that for a year now! YOU GO GIRL!!!

    My only suggestion on this image would be to calm the center down on the ornament just a little bit more. I like that you're going for a "foil" look and I really feel you've pulled that off but that one spot is just a little 'overwhelming' to me. Man, what a neat idea!
