Today I want to show you something that was inspired by several of the sweet vintage churches that exist here in my county in Georgia. I had the pleasure of taking a tour one Saturday of some of these churches. Churches that are so far in the country that they had sconces on the walls and oil lamps to light the church. It was so beautiful and amazing. The beautiful stain glass left an impression on me!

Carol, this is so inspiring! I love that you were able to tour some lovely old churches and were moved to create this. Your focal point stained glass is a show-stopper and jaw-dropper. All of the punched and crimped elements support it so beautifully - I love how well everything works so well together. Love your signature bow! Beautiful scene, beautiful card.

I'm a stained glass LOVER Carol and this one is so darn pretty. What a great experience to visit the churches. My goodness, if this isn't spiritual inspiration, then I don't know what is. Keep it up!
