Churches, Crosses, and the Art of Faith at Happy Little Card Store

Faith on canvas with churches and crosses.

At Happy Little Card Store, art and faith often meet on the same canvas. Many of our most beloved designs are inspired by churches and crosses—symbols that carry not only beauty but also meaning that has endured through generations. From the golden glow of the Church of Light to the quiet mystery of the Church of Night Moon, every painting tells a story of faith, hope, and the way sacred places connect us to something greater than ourselves.

We love painting churches because they represent community and tradition. A church is more than just a building; it’s a place where people come together to pray, to celebrate, and to find peace. Each steeple and cross reminds us that faith is both a personal journey and a shared experience.

Our faith is in all of our Happy Little Card Store paintings.

Crosses, too, hold a special place in our art. They are simple yet powerful symbols—standing for strength, love, and sacrifice. By painting them in different colors, styles, and settings, we reflect how faith can be expressed in countless ways, always unique to the individual.

Our church and cross paintings aren’t just art; they’re reminders. They remind us to slow down, to reflect, and to embrace the comfort that faith can bring. Whether hung in a home, given as a gift, or featured on one of our cards, each piece carries with it a little light, a little hope, and a touch of timeless grace.

That’s why we paint churches, and why we always will. They’re not only beautiful to look at—they’re beautiful to hold in the heart.
