Surround Yourself With Music

We are now half way through the current Path of Positivity Challenge with the optional theme of music. Last time I told you about my dancing daughters, this time I am focusing on a time of year I love and the music associated with it.

I love winter, it is my favourite season, especially if it is crisp and sunny but even more so if it snows. Of course the favourite part of winter is Christmas, the trees, decorations, lights and fun of family gatherings. I enjoy all of that but even more I absolutely love the church services and singing Advent and Christmas carols. I prefer celebrating the real meaning of Christmas, the birth of Jesus. If you take Christ out of Christmas, as the world seems so intent on doing, it just leaves 'mas' which is a meaningless non word. My hope is that those people who only come to church or even think about God at Christmas might join in with the lovely carols and really take to heart the lyrics and be led to continue to celebrate God's wonderful gift of Jesus all year round.



Materials used:  
Limited Runs - Christmas Door Set 
Limited Runs - Christmas Carolers 
Craft Creations - A4 Creative Card Red/Green Christmas Carols Cream 
X-Press It card
Copic pens
A5 white card blank

The two Limited Runs images were printed seperately and the Christmas Carolers coloured then fussy cut. I have  used silicone glue to attach them to the Christmas Door image which has given it a bit of dimension.

I hope you will come and join us at Path of Positivity, remember we are now anything goes with the optional theme of music but it would be lovely to hear about your musical inspirations, likes or even dislikes. We have two wonderful sponsors for this challenge, both offering great prizes. Limited Runs are offering a $10 gift certificate for the post or project that the team deems most inspiring, this has to follow the theme. While Imagine That Digistamp is also offering a $10 gift certificate this time for the random draw winner from all the entries. All details of how to enter and how to qualify for the different prizes can be found at the Path of Positivity Challenge Blog.

Thank you for popping in. Take care.
