‘Inspiration and Faith’

A whimsical depiction of hearts being built by the Master Carpenter and his helpers as stars spill from heart flowers. It is not easy to build a heart, but possible with much time and help.  The Scripture on the card, “He who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Christ Jesus,” provides an encouraging reminder of God’s promises and faithfulness.

Size: 5 x 7 Greeting Card.  The card features a vivid reproduction of my original drawing printed on cardstock and elegantly layered over contrasting cardstock.  It includes a matching envelope, all in a cellophane sleeve to keep it nice for you.

This becomes a one-of-a-kind keepsake and conversation piece your dad will treasure with lots of personal details, printed from my original drawing.
