After spending months pouring into this project, Breezy and I are grateful to present:
Inside you will find paper dolls of the Captain and 15 of the most beloved passengers of the Titanic, mini-biographies, clothing changes, two fold-out scenes on the decks of the Titanic, and a faithful retelling of God’s Providential work in history.
While learning about the bravery and sacrifice, children can play and remember…
Men gave their lives so that women and children could live. “Women and children first,” was the cry! Then the lifeboats were lowered into the freezing water below and were rowed away from the sinking ship.
One hundred years ago this year was a night to remember. May we never forget to honor those brave men who went down with the ship, sacrificing their lives so that others could live!
“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”
—John 15:13
Now Available at Noble Rose Press & Vision Forum!
P.S. You can expect posts here to be much more regular now that this project is complete!

The past two years have gone by quickly.
Two years ago, Noble Rose Press started out as a simple idea for an Etsy shop. But it rapidly grew after a few emails, expressed interest, and business research… turning the idea into a larger project.
The idea began in May 2009 and turned into reality in October 2009 when a pallet of boxes containing paper doll books was delivered and moved into our home. Then it grew again in October 2010 when a load of new paper doll books, with the addition of coloring books, arrived at our door and moved in with us.
Those boxes have become a part of our lives, filled with tales of virtuous womanhood, illustrations of beautiful family life, and clothing from times past. (Boxes make for great end-tables in the living room, too!)
To celebrate the second anniversary of our publishing company, Noble Rose Press, we are having a sale…
Now through October 10th, you can save up to 40% off on our products, plus free shipping on US orders of $50+ when you use coupon code FREESHIP50. Click here to take a look!

We are thankful to the Lord for the way He has provided opportunities and granted the strength to persevere in creating products that elevate virtue through history and art.
“But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession,
and
through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of Him everywhere.”
—II Corinthians 2:14

We are delighted to present our latest paper dolls from the Daughters of His Story series. We have had a wonderful time this summer working on the next three collections which feature Martha Washington and Eliza Lucas Pinckney, Mary Anna Jackson and Susannah Spurgeon, and Elizabeth Prentiss and Anne Bradstreet.
These ladies have become so dear to us as we studied their lives and legacies. We hope that they become as dear to to you, and that you are blessed by the Lord’s goodness radiating from their hearts. We want young ladies to grow up knowing that the Lord cherishes purity and holiness, and that He changes the world through those who are faithful to His Word.
Noble Rose Press is having a grand sale for the announcement
of the latest paper dolls! Click here to see the great prices and read a
little more about these godly women from history!
It is not only possible to remain unstained by the world, by the Lord’s strength, but it is imperative that we be proactive in glorifying God in our lives. These women from the past are shining examples of dedication to the Lord’s work as wives and mothers who changed the world.

. . . and many things to learn that can be found between the covers of books.
There is something very refreshing and satisfying about sitting down with a good book to read and study. With a long list of books to read, as well as a good deal of research to do, we will be enjoying many books over the next few weeks.
A book that I have been reading is “Beloved Bride” by Bill Potter. It is a collection of letters from General “Stonewall” Jackson to his wife, Mary Anna, with snippets about their life sprinkled throughout.
After the death of his first wife and their baby, General Jackson wrote the following in a letter to his sister, which is a wonderful example and depiction of his trust in the Lord:
“I have been called to pass through the deep waters of affliction, but all has been satisfied. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord. It is his will that my Dearest wife and child should no longer abide with me, and as it is his holy will, I am perfectly reconciled to the sad bereavement, though I deeply mourn my loss.
“Oh! The consolations of religion! I can willingly submit to anything if God strengthens me. I have joy in knowing that God withholds no good things from them that love and keep his commandments. And he will overrule this Sad, Sad bereavement for good.“
What good books you have been reading lately?
