WOYWW + Verse for Christmas Card Inserts

Hullo there everyone, well another quick post to link over to WOYWW for those not in the know it is What is On Your workdesk Wednesday.. pop over to our Julia's desk at the Stamping Ground!

Now to my desk:

Desk Front: card fronts with gold or silver ink edges, ribbon bling, scissors,glues Back left: production line of punched silhouette images, Monkeys - of course! minding glue and WOYWW sign under pile of cards already made. Right: more images to punch, poem of card inserts printed off and sheet of card about to rule it up for the silver and gold scallops circles. Love my T-bar ruler. Pegs for holding glued ribbon in place.
This isn't my main desk, this table found on roadside pile, fold up camping table and is often in main part of room as big space there for it.. Main desk is narrow and good for single card making but not mass production like this. I had brain frieze - when yesterday a card recount, a shortfall indeed! not sure what happened with first count fortnight ago! Eeek! so prayed - LORD popped an idea into my head. These silhouettes were to be for envelopes, but now this with several layouts.

This is first prototypes in silver and gold.. I will no doubt not make them all like this will vary .. cant stick to one pattern but will use the Holly CB folder for all of them with inked edges as have done that and ribbon somewhere. * these cards entered in challenges below :D

This is my insert verse in card below .. finally finished verse yesterday, was struggling this year... I am not a poet, I write doggerel, as does not have true meter and rhyme but do it simply to share a message of great import to me.. all cards I make are finished with this sort of insert.

Outside of this card shared before...

 Here is what is written on the insert .. free to use, if you wish. Other verses from 2013, 2012 maybe found here and here.

“For unto you is born this day in the city of David, a Saviour,

Which is Christ the Lord.” Luke 2:11

The Reality of Christmas?

Is it those pretty snowy scenes of the northern sphere?

Or the jolly, rosy-cheeked, red-suited man others hold dear?

What do we see at the very heart of Christmas time?

Look, SEE - it is the “Christ” of Christmas-mine.

                     C is the for the Christ child who came, of whom angels sing,

                                                 H is the Hope of a Home in Heaven, He alone can bring, 

                R is the Risen Christ, Who died on the cross for me, 

                    I  is for I, who need to trust in Him alone - to be free! 

                          S is for my Sins He bore, instead of me, on Calvary’s tree

                     T is Time – that all will give account on judgment day

So let us look! See! Truly seek Him, while we may.

S.L.G. ~ 23.11.14

EDIT: try as would could not get acrostic to go straight down as it should but you can fix it up not on original.

Here is the photo from Oz today.. not taken today as we are enjoying some very welcome rain, best for a long time but not drought breaking yet. I really pray for farmers the need it so very much, hardest dry spell for long time.

Thanks for popping over everyone for peek and chat.. sorry, will have to comment as time permits :D but really appreciate your words.

May God bless your day wherever you may be.

PS have heaps of cards to share but dont have time to blog them at the moment.. 

Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto Him be glory... Ephesians 3: 20, 21a
