Rejoice In the Lord!


This is a board I had used three years ago, so it did not take nearly as long to put together. The leaf pile probably took the longest at the time, cutting out all those leaves and pasting them just so onto a piece of posterboard. Making the boy was a bit challenging too; I normally don't put many people as such on my boards (unless they are already made), because they just don't seem to come out quite right proportionately. But, the idea for this board was one I really wanted, so I decided to tackle it anyway by looking through different clipart pictures and such. All the musical notes were printed from a clipart note to the size I wanted and then traced onto construction paper. Among the notes falling around the boy are some leaves that the kids wrote their names on.
