I have two layouts to share from our visit to Sante Fe last year. Journaling spread over both pages reads:

The Sisters of Loretto responded to a plea to open a school for girls. It opened in 1853. By 1873, the Sisters were able to start the construction of a Chapel. Using the same French architect and builders as Saint Francis Cathedral Basilica, the Chapel of Our Lady of Light (as it was then known) was patterned after Archbishop Lamy’s favorite Sainte Chapelle in Paris. Unfortunately, the architect died before access to the choir loft was built. Given the height of the loft and the small size of the Chapel, a staircase would have taken up too much floor space, thereby reducing the seating capacity to an unacceptably small level. Legend states that seeking guidance and help, the Sisters of Loretto prayed a nine day novena to St. Joseph, Patron Saint of Carpenters.

On the final day of the novena, a carpenter appeared with only a hammer and carpenter’s square.  He built what is now known as the Miraculous Staircase with simple tools and wooden pegs.  When the Staircase was complete, it is said that the carpenter disappeared without receiving thanks or payment.  Some believe the carpenter was St. Joseph himself while others believe that is was someone sent by St. Joseph.  What is known is that the Sisters of Loretto prayed, and their prayers were answered. The Staircase has two complete 360 degree turns with no center pole for structural support.  The entire weight of the staircase rests on the bottom stair. The banisters were added approximately ten years later due to the difficulty of climbing the tall, tapered stairs with no railing.

I really like the journal cards in this collection and wanted to make sure and use at least one. This first page is from a trip James and I took to San Francisco in 2011. This page documents one of the yummy restaurants we visited.

I love this kit! Unfortunately, I haven’t been to Pandora yet, so I had to think outside of the box for what to scrap. I ended up choosing these photos from a visit to the Rainforest Cafe in Galveston.
