I have loved this Stampabilities image from the moment I saw it. I love the whole idea of the toddler Jesus playing with the spikes in the shadow of the cross. I used this stamp a couple of years ago for my Christmas cards. Shortly after that a friend visited a prayer retreat where a painting of this image hung in the foyer. I hope this counts as a "card inspired by church".

Oh my word....this image is so wonderful! Love the symbolism, and the beautiful way you have used this. Meaningful, full of promise and totally encouraging!

A card that certainly invokes a spiritual feeling. Don't know if you are sending this on to Dorothea, but it will lift anyone's spirits who receives it.

I would definitely say this is a card inspired by church! What a beautiful image of our Saviour before He realized what His mission in life would be. Thank you for sharing this beauty with us~
