021: Light of the City


Inspired by the song lyrics that everyone who had attended AC should know by heart..

the church we know / righteous and holy
the church we know / faithful and true
the church we know / a tower of refuge
hearts are healed / Christ revealed
the church we know / light of the city
the church we know / strengthens the weak
the church we know / Your heart beats within me
as He is / so are we

Big departure from my usual style for 2 reasons, 1
1. I wanted the focus to be on the candle light
2. was trying to challenge myself to finish the LO within 2 hours

Journalling:
" In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shone in the darkness, but the darkness did not comprehend it - John 1:4-5. Christmas Candlelight service 2008, CHC"

Ingredients:
PP: Scenic Route, Hambly's Screenprints
City Silhouette (oh how I love this): Riff Raff Designs
Alphas: AC Thickers Lax and Poolside
Phrases: 7G 97% Complete Grateful, Making Memories, Stampendous, K&Company
Others: Random ribbon and button, blings from Prima Say it with Crystals and KaiserCraft, metal heart from Blue Moon Beads
Effects: Distressing with StazOn Timber Brown, outline of city Silhouette with Stickles Tiara, and also used Stickles (smeared on with my finger) on the torn edges of the paper around the photo.
