Day 8: The Angels Sing
Start using your Christmas Countdown Book on December 1st. Today would be presented on December 8th. There will be a different subject for each day until Christmas Day, December 25th. The purpose of this Christmas Countdown Book is to help you remember and focus on Jesus Christ during the Christmas season!

Good Tidings of Great Joy (the Angel Appears to the Shepherds)
Scripture
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
Song
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, Hymn 209

Ornament
The inspiration for the angel wings ornament came from sweetlyscrappedart. I just free hand drew the angel wings onto some sheet music. I dipped it in a lightly tinted papier mache mixture to make it more sturdy, but you could also easily mount it to sheet music printed card stock.
If you don’t want to make your own, here are some other options:
