~ O Holy Night ~ 

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining,

It is the night of the dear Saviour’s birth;

Long lay the world in sin and error pining,

'Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth.

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;

Chorus

Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!

O night divine! O night when Christ was born.

O night, O holy night, O night divine.

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming;

With glowing hearts by his cradle we stand:

So, led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,

Here come the wise men from Orient land,

The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger,

In all our trials born to be our friend;

Chorus

He knows our need, To our weakness no stranger!

Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!

Behold your King! your King! before him bend!

Truly He taught us to love one another;

His law is Love and His gospel is Peace;

Chains shall he break, for the slave is our brother,

And in his name all oppression shall cease,

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful Chorus raise we;

Let all within us praise his Holy name!

Chorus

Christ is the Lord, then ever! ever praise we!

His pow'r and glory, evermore proclaim!

His pow'r and glory, evermore proclaim!

While browsing thru all of my Silhouette files, I found this one that I thought was just perfect for this challenge.

The other great thing about this card, is that I was able to use my larger pieces of scraps.

Here is a view from the top of the card.

And here you can see if from the side.  I love box cards. They always not only stand out, but create a beautiful 3D look.

I created a greeting panel and adhered it to the back of the card. The greeting was cut using the Merry Christmas with Shadow die from Karen Burniston. I love that this card folds flat for mailing and fits into a regular business envelope.  Once flat, there is not a lot of bulk to it, so it's an easy card to put in the mail.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Now it's your turn to make a Christmas project,  and come play along with us.  You have till the end of the month to link your project to our blog at  Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round.
