Nativity Bible Paper Toys Book

Now available in printed form, the paper model of the Nativity. Though still available to download as a PDF from the web site, you can now order an already printed cardstock package book that comes with a booklet of instructions, both in English and Spanish.

It is already late for preparation for Christmas this year and I do apologize. It is my first printing project and the printer wasn’t able to deliver it earlier. However, you can still order it and if you order it right away (by the 5^th of December) I should be able to get it to you in the US or Mexico by around the middle of December, but it doesn’t look like I can get it to the rest of the world before Christmas.

Simply send the amount via my PayPal account to martindidier55@gmail.com. Also, remember to include your mailing address.

The prices for the US or Mexico is 12 dollars (shipping included), and for the rest of the world is 16 dollars (shipping included).

Again, sorry for the short notice. To those who do purchase this printed version, thank you.

The PDFs are listed there, easier to download.

Merry Christmas!

A Thank You Note and Baby Jesus

First, a big thank you for all your comments and notes and letters, and encouragements and support, it is a little difficult at time to answer the comments as they are in different places in the blog posts, but I do read them and I really appreciate and thanks everyone of you for writing them.

And if you have questions, or suggestions or ideas or projects that you’ll be interested to see, do write me, I will try to answer you as soon as I can.

Now for the Nativity Bible Paper Toys, I received a few letters asking where is baby Jesus on the booklet 1, baby Jesus is there, on page 5, on the bottom of the page, and the manger box is on page 4. 

The only thing I didn’t include in the booklet is the yellow paper to form the hay, I suggested using an actual piece of simple yellow paper in order to have color on both side, here a page from the instructions pages on how to do it.

Hope it is helpful, thank you for downloading the Nativity; soon I will be posting on my web site an update version of the instructions pages in English and Spanish, as well as the models parts again with easier link to download it.

Thank you,

Didier

A Merry Christmas

A Christmas Gift

Here’s a Christmas coloring tract we prepare for this Christmas season to give to everyone we meet, and to orphanage and poor families in our city.

It is also my present to you, whishing everyone a beautiful Christmas season and praying that many will find joy and peace this Christmas, as the angels sung two thousand years ago:

“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” (Luke 2:14)

You are very welcome to use this tract, to print as many as you like and to give it to many people

(Do keep my name, copyright and the address of my blog on the tract)

Though I was a little late, I was able to have it translated in Spanish and French, and my dream would be to have it translated in as many languages as possible, and as soon as I have a new translation I can post it, Christmas can be everyday of the year.

So if you would like to help with this project, simply translate it in your language, wherever you are in the world, and send me a word files or a PDF or whichever is the easiest and I can place it in a new layout. Thank you.

Some News, October 16

I haven’t posted much on the blog recently, it has been busy days but I thought to take a little time to post some news and a few photos with different projects in the work.

I have been working on illustrations for some children stories, one about a young squirrel and her rabbit friend, and another one to illustrate the story of “the boy who cry wolf”. You can see a sample of the art here.

I also started work on a Bible flannelgraph series with a dear friend, a long project but good progress is being made. I will write more when the project will be completed and how to purchase the flannelgraph books.

And diverse illustrations for a Christmas story

And last, here a preview photo of the next part of the nativity project for this year, the town of Bethlehem, it is near completion, though there are many details to finalize, but it should be ready to post in November.

You will then be able to create different houses and add many accessories to create a small town (or a bigger one if you have a big display area) not to forget the inn. This will include also new town people, so do check back soon to start downloading the different parts.
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
And a few weeks ago one of my daughters, Laura, came from Ireland to visit and to spend some time here, so we are taking long walk to talk and to show her different places in town.
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Thank you for all the very encouraging comments and letters I have received over the months.
