Religious Christmas cards are now available!

Posted on October 19, 2018October 19, 2018 by Barbara McLaughlin

Christmas is 10 weeks away! Are you getting ready? I have two Christmas cards available at my Etsy shop. Both religious cards feature the print of my original ink painting of the Holy Family. My painting is a modern take of the nativity scene with Joseph, Mary, and Jesus. Such beautiful and vibrant Christmas cards to share with family and friends. The first card has a lovely scripture verse printed on the inside of the card – “And the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us, and we saw his glory, the glory as of the Father’s only Son, full of grace and truth” (John 1:14). The second card features the bible verse on the front of the card from Luke 2:11 -“For today in the city of David a savior has been born for you who is Messiah and Lord.” This card is blank on the inside for your personalized message.

Christmas cards are available in various quantities with free shipping in the U.S.

Hand Cut Paper Cards with St Therese of Lisieux…

Posted on October 17, 2018 by Barbara McLaughlin

I am excited to share another hand cut paper card option! It can take a bit of time for me to select a quote, but this love quote from St. Thérèse of Lisieux seemed so fitting with the paper cut rose design. “Let us love, since that is what our hearts were made for.” Each card has a hand cut abstract rose. Stencils were not used so each card is 100% unique! Such beautiful cards to send to family and friends with a lovely quote! These are the types of cards I love to pass along to friends. We need a little reminder to choose to love each and every day. Two options are available – a single light pink card or a set of four pink ombre cards.

October is the month of the Rosary!

Posted on October 12, 2018 by Barbara McLaughlin

October is a special month for me and it is also the month of the rosary. The rosary has a special place in my heart and I am blessed to share the work of my hands with others. I have been busy creating new rosaries for my Etsy shop. Below are just a few of my new favorites! To see all of my rosaries, click this link.

Catholic prints on canvas…

Posted on September 22, 2018 by Barbara McLaughlin

I’m excited to introduce two new additions to my Etsy shop. In the last few weeks, I have perfected the method of transferring prints of my original art onto 5×7 canvas panels. It is fun and a little daunting at the same time, but so worth it! I love the look of the canvas shining through my artwork. I couldn’t be happier with these new items!

Metal crucifix rosaries…

Posted on September 15, 2018 by Barbara McLaughlin

Metal crucifix rosaries are now available! It took time to find a supplier of metal crucifixes, but I finally found one that complements the natural olive wood beads. Both crucifixes were made in Italy and have Jerusalem engraved on the back of the crucifix. Such lovely additions to my olive wood rosary selection. As always, rosaries come with a muslin pouch with free shipping in the U.S.
