A Time for Prayer (book)

Happy Weekend Stampers!

Guess what today is?
SATURDAY silly!
(woot woot happy dance)

Today I am sharing a Prayer Book I made.


Ohh about a month ago I found colored 4 x7 pads of paper at a flea market. (LOVE EM)
I didn't exactly know what I was going to do with them, until just the other day.
And so.... I thought
A Prayer Book for my father-in-law's birthday would be a nice present.
Since his wife died 1 1/2 years ago, he has retired from our family business and starting going on missions with his church. He travels all across the country helping those in need. The stories he brings back
about the people he meets can literally bring tears to your eyes.
 He has been doing a lot of praying these days, not only for himself - but for those less fortunate.
This little book has a pocket with prayer cards on one side, and a pad of paper on the other. I stamped each page with sentiments from my "Time for Prayer" clear stamp set.


I added a thick brown ribbon to the binding for extra support.

Now he can write down his prayers, or the names of the people he is praying for.
Maybe even a few of his favorite verses.

Anyway he uses this Prayer Book I know he is going to love it
because it is hand made - the best kind of gift!

Have a creative weekend!
