Guardian Angels – based on a Vintage Holy Card – Cozy – Catholic Art Print – Archival Quality

Children should know they are protected in many ways. This gentle picture helps them imagine their Guardian Angels hovering near. Everyone has a Guardian Angel! They aren’t just something sweet we tell our children. Guardian Angels are mentioned many times in the Bible. For example, in Mathew 18:10, Jesus says, speaking of some children, “See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their angels in heaven always look upon the face of my heavenly Father.” Guardian Angles protect us! 

It’s nice for children to know they are being guarded by strong angels all the time, even while they’re sleeping. If you want a suggestion of what to tell your children, we would say that the angel mainly guides you away from danger so you don't see it in the first place. It’s nice to remind adults of that, too! One of the things we like about this picture, besides the gentleness and coziness of it, is that there are two angels in the picture, one for each child! In the traditional picture which you've seen elsewhere, the one with two children stepping over a river gorge on a rickety old foot bridge, there is only one angel. For so much danger! It's good for people to know that we each have one. 

We think this picture is lovely and comforting. Hang it in a bedroom, of course, or in a hallway by a bedroom door, or any place you want to think of your angel. It took us a long time to restore this image. As of this writing, no one has copied us yet. We also have a slightly fancier one if you search our shop for "guardian". We're grateful to be able to offer this picture to you, and we hope it will be a comfort to you and your children. 

** IMPORTANT ** THE IMAGE IS SMALLER THAN THE PAPER! There is a white border of about 0.5" inch for 5x7", 1.3" for 8.5x11", or 1.6" for 11x14" pictures. All Approx! Fine art printers do this because the images are almost never the same rectangular ratio of the standard paper sizes. It also gives the prints a finished look, and lets them look good in a frame without a matt. 

- Acid-free paper
- Archival pigments, rated to last for generations.
- Cardboard backer
- Above story of the art
- Enclosed in a tight-fitting, crystal clear bag.

Thanks for your interest!

Thanks!
