Happy Monday everybody!Click the image for a larger version on Facebook!
Here's a quick and easy craft we tried ourselves over the weekend. It'll only take a few minutes and the results are very pretty!
According to Christianity.about.com:
"The dove represents the Holy Spirit or the Holy Ghost in Christianity. The Holy Spirit descended upon Jesus like a dove when he was baptized in the Jordan River:
Luke 3:22
... and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased." (NIV)

The dove is also a symbol of peace. In Genesis 8 after the flood, a dove returned to Noah with an olive branch in its beak, revealing the end of God's judgement and the beginning of a new covenant with man."
Using the template provided simply cut out the nesting doves and the heart in the middle. Thread together with fine cotton for a lovely mobile. It doesn't look like much on paper, but is surprisingly attractive hanging in a window, and you get a lovely effect when you and two or three together in the sun!
Take some pictures and send them in so we can see what you've been doing!
