Art idea for Jeremiah

I just saw a video effect that reminded me of a very effective art project --embossing on "brass" or "copper" sheets. These thin sheets are available in art catalogs/stores.

You lay them on a piece of felt and use wooden stick to press a pattern and words into the sheet. The words must be pressed/spelled right to left to appear correct when the brass is turned over (the side you want to show after all is said and done).

Older students can write on the back side of the sheet (right to left) and emboss everything EXCEPT the letters ...for a very interesting effect when flipped over.

God wants to "IMPRESS" the Law on our heart.
What is that Law? - Love God, Love Neighbor.
That would be the thing to write. They could illustrate those too. (hearts)

Use hole punch to punch holes around border. Spiral thread yarn around-through holes to make colorful edge. Leave extra yarn for hanging.
