Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25.Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Galatians 5:24,25

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith, and this is not from your-selves, it is the gift of God; 9.not by works, so that no one can boast. 10.For we are Gods handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:8-10

Romans 6:1-4What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?

2.By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? 3.Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

4.We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.

1 John 5:1,2Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well. 2.This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands.

Ephesians 1:3,4Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4.For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.

BIBLE VERSESGalatians 6:14

May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through

which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the

world.

2 Corinthians 5:15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

Romans 6:4 Therefore we have been buried with him through bap-tism into death in order that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father so we too might walk in newness of life.

The next 9 pages contain my examples of the insides of cards for you to learn from. You do not have to make yours just like mine. You can if you want to, but you don't have to. They are just to give you ideas and teach you art principles that will help you make nicer cards.

After my examples, you will find pages and pages of pictures and greetings to paste inside your cards. Some of them are in color, and others are in black and white, for you to color. (This way parents can decide if they want to use black and white or color toner to print these out.)

I colored the pictures and greetings of the inside card above to give you ideas for when you color your own. Again, you can copy what I did or you can use any other colors that you prefer. I gave the Easter lilies above yellow middles and a green background. I used bright, sunny colors to represent glory and joy.

You might also want to write or glue typed Bible verses that pertain to Jesus death and resurrection inside your cards. Here are some suggestions: Remember that Jesus' death not only saves us, but also gives us spiritual power over sin, and the ability to live a godly life, and rise above sin, to live lives that are pleasing to God in all respects.

Herein was the love of God manifested in us, that God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world that we might live through him. 10.Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11.Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 1 John 4:9-11

This pale pink card didn't end up very pink after scanning, but it is almost as nice in white.

This is the easi-est thing you can do on the inside of a card: glue a picture on one side of the fold, and a picture and greeting on the other side.

When you do this, try to glue it in the center of each side of the card from left to right. But glue it a little higher than the center between the top and bottom.

You may have noticed, with these 2 cards that the picture on the right side of the card is bigger than the picture on the left side of the card.

This is the way it should be, because the right side of the inside of a card is the side you write on, and is the most important side. The left side only needs a small picture (or none at all).

But sometimes the art side of my brain gets all excited and I put all kinds of pictures inside the card just for fun.

Joy Marie homeschooled all 5 of her kids from pre-school to high school graduation. One of her and her kids' favorite art activities was creative cardmaking.

You can print, cut out, and use these bookmarks. But you may also want to create your own bookmarks using these as inspiration.

Glue any of the pictures in this book onto a piece of construc-tion paper shaped like any of these, and you have a bookmark. So use your creativity! To make them strong enough to last a long time, cover them with a length of clear packing tape on the front and back. Share with a friend.

This one is a lot fancier, but I just used pictures that fit a long frame. I was excited about how it turned out.
