A digital journal page for Valerie's theme over at
which is Light and darkness.
For many years this hand made ceramic Nativity is displayed at Christmas time
in my sitting room.
Very plain and faces with no features, but it means a lot and is special to my family.
One year we added straw for it to stand on, that didn't last for very long and we went back to plain, to let the story speak for itself..
I took a few photos and used one of them
for my page.[ click photo to see a larger picture]
Thank you for calling in to see me today, you are very welcome
and your comments are always appreciated.
Digital additions from
Mischief Circus kits
and my own backgrounds.
LOve your beautiful nativity figures, and the wonderful page you have made with them. I think I will now be singing 'We three kings....' for the rest of the evening! Thanks for making another lovely journal page for AJJ, much appreciated. Hugs, Valerie

That's a really beautiful Nativity - the simplicity and the gentleness of the figures captures something really special. I love how you've converted that into your digital page, and found a different medium in which to express that moment of wonder.

It always means something special when you can use your own photos in your digital art. It's even MORE special when the photo has special meaning. What a lovely journal page, and a beautiful nativity scene, too. It has such special meaning to you, and that's the way it should be.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention that I really like your latest blog header.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful is this Yvonne, your Nativity is really adorable and looks fantastic on your digital journal.

ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful page Yvonne and your navtivity is adorable! I love this song as it brings very happy childhood memories flooding back to me :-). I played the symbols to it at school in our local church and everytime the STAR word was sung in the chorus I had to bang the symbols together. I made such a crash I think the whole village could hear me ... lol, I am sure you can imagine the happiness I felt and the noise I made ... so funny now I look back on it. Thanks for the memories and making me smile :-). Wishing you a Happy Friday and Weekend! J :-)
