This week's Our Daily Bread Shining Light Challenge calls for using something that falls into one of the following three catagories:
Baubles,
Bells, or
Anything Hanging
I am pretty sure this meets almost all of those! I used Diamond Stickles on that chain so it may fall into the Baubles category (I know it is a stretch but run with me on this - LOL). In the scene where Marley comes to visit Scrooge, the door bell rings - watch this:
If everyone watched that scene every morning, the world would be a better place! Finally, chains hang and clang or they do in the movies when people drag them like Marley does.
I used a Mo Manning image of Marley (isn't it great?) and a wonderful scripture from Our Daily Bread's Scripture Collection 1 (wonderful verses in that set). In the background, I used a page from an old hymnal with the song O'er the Gloomy Hills of Darkness. It was written in 1772 by William Williams (wonder if my DH is related to him?), and the third verse was my favorite (I had never heard this song before):
Fly abroad, eternal Gospel;
Win and conquer, never cease.
May Thy lasting, wide dominions
Multiply and still increase!
May Thy scepter
Sway th'enlightened world around!
Hugz to all - hope you have a blessed week!

Oh my! Sister, your talent oozes out once more! Marley vs. the Word! How perfect a picture. Cool link, and food for thought to start the day. LYMI

Sweet Nancy!! Yikes - your mind must be traveling at about 100 miles per hour - what an imagination to conjure up this scene with a Mo image, then add a clip from you tube!! I am in awe of your creativeness, assembling this card with so much contemplation behind it - (just picking up my jaw off the floor now!) A lot of thought went into the making of this card - you continually amaze me!! LYMI!
