This is my entry into Jenn's challenge this week at The Artist Playroom.  We were to use the word "Galaxy" for our prompt.  I thought I would do a design for a Christmas card.  The Star that the shepherds followed, the triangular pieces of the church foundation, the triangular tree, to me symbolize our higher power, God, and the Trinity.  The stars reaching out to all mankind.  The painting is on greeting card watercolor paper and comes with an envelope.  Inside are the words "Good  Will Towards All".  I wanted to emphasize each of the words "Good" and "Will".  See below.  I attached the wording with matte medium and a wash and then spritzed it with some very 
fine glitter mist.  I put a little black edge around both photos in Elements, so that the white cardstock would show up better against the blog page.

    What a beautiful and sensitive card you did for christmas. I like it so much. Not flashy and commercial but tender and sensitive what I need much more! Many thanks for sharing the appreciation for the star the shepherds followed. You did it in such a beautiful way.
