For ODBD Shining the Light Challenge(ODBDSLC162), we are to use white/cream and one other color. I chose Royal Velvet. It is a deep rich purple. I combined this challenge with a few SCS Challenges. This week's Sketch Challenge(SC445) is to choose a sketch from all the past sketches. I chose sketch(SC428). 
Happy Wednesday! I have a card to share today using some ODBD stamps. I am playing along with this week's Shining the Light Challenge(ODBDSLC159). This week is a sketch. I finally ordered me some paper pads. First all year. I was so excited that I just had to dig in and create a card using this fun sketch.
Welcome to Our Daily Bread Design's Alumni feature of For the Love of Vintage. This month the Alumni team will be sharing creations made with sets that focus on Vintage sets While we are including the cards and sets used by the designers for their creations, I know the designers would appreciate if you would click on the links below to leave them a little love as well.
For my card I am using Our Daily Bread Designs, Vintage Border Background, Antique Label Designs, and Flourished Verses stamp sets. I decided to keep it simple. I could have focused more on a more vintage look with these vintage stamps, but I thought using vintage stamps for a less vintage look is possible with these stamps as well. 
Welcome to Our Daily Bread Design's Alumni feature of For the Love of Patriotism and Service!! This month the Alumni team will be sharing creations made with sets that focus on Patriotism and Service! While we are including the cards and sets used by the designers for their creations, I know the designers would appreciate if you would click on the links below to leave them a little love as well.
For my card I am using Cross of Christ stamp set. I combined some of my Stampin Up In color patterned papers for this card. So far I have not purchased any new designer papers this whole year. I am trying to use more of what I already own. Sort of a fun challenge for myself. I added some stitching and layered inked distressed corrugated cardboard. I decided to use one of my older spellbinder frames that I have not used in awhile. I stamped the largest Cross in the set with Memento Cocoa ink. I ink distressed the edges. I finished with some tiny gold pearls, seam binding bow, and pearl button.
For my card I am using the 5th Anniversary Release Quote Collection 3. I combined the quote above with ODBD Antique Labels Designs stamp set along with the 
coordinating ODBD Custom Spellbinders Antique Labels and Border dies. 
For my card I am using ODBD As You Graduate for the focal image. I stamped the background in a soft aqua color. I stamped the sentiment using Memento tuxedo black. I decided to add a little bit of flair using the ODBD Blessed Christmas set set(yes...Christmas in March and without a Christmas theme) along with the ODBD custom Poinsettia die. 
As you see I only used the curly cue leaves and vines on the edges of the poinsettia to tuck under the frame. Love using stamps and dies in different ways. I stamped, die cut, and added some glitter. Next, I decided to add a butterfly. I chose the butterfly single image. 
I stamped in Memento ink, die 
cut with the ODBD custom butterfly die. I colored with copics and added some glitter. I finished the card with a seam binding bow in soft green with a glittered button.
Welcome to my blog where I love to share the things I do with paper.
