Today I am so excited to be sharing both the Saturday Spotlight Challenge and the first weekly Our Daily Bread designs Challenge!!!
Woo hoo! Today is the first weekly challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs!!! The challenge team has so much to share with you!
CHALLENGE: Since Valentines is quickly approaching, the team is challenging you to use hearts. The hearts can be on your designer paper, in your image, on your embellishments (ribbons, pearls, gems, charms and etc.)
To make the challenge even more fun, we will be giving out a prize, a $15 gift certificate to be used toward stamps at the Our Daily Bread Designs store!! Entries for the prize must be submitted by Thursday, February 11. One random winner will be chosen and announced next Saturday. While it is not required to use Our Daily Bread Designs images and sentiments on your creations, we would love to see them if you have them.
As a way of recognizing those who do use Our Daily Bread Designs stamps, we will also be choosing 1 to 2 creations to spotlight for our Shining the Light Award. In order to qualify for this award, however, you must use Our Daily Bread stamps and have your submission added to Mr. Linky by February 11 at 8 p.m. EST.
If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC1. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.
Here is my take on the challenge:
This is a lunchbox I made using Lauren Meader's Lunch box template, the Our Daily Bread Designs stamp sets Sing to the Lord (image), Friendship (flourishes) and He Watches Me (Sentiment-A bird does not sing because he has an answer, he sings because he has a song). The paper is new yummy paper from Basic Grey called Origins. This is fast becoming one of my faves....maybe because it is so springy looking.
In addition to incorporating the hearts for Our Daily Bread Designs Shining the light Challenge, I also incorporated the new Assignment Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs hosted by Betty. This week's challenge and assignment are:
The Assignment: ODBD Sing to the Lord stamp set.
The challenge: Adding Dimension and Texture!
Lunch Box recipe:
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs- He Watches Me, Sing to the Lord , Friendship
Paper: Origins from Basic Grey, very vanilla and garden green CS,
Accessories: Spellbinders Fleur De Lis, May Arts Light Green Grosgrain ribbon, ZVA Creative pearls
Lauren Meader's Lunch box template
other challenges:
Raise the Bar~ hearts
Creative Belli~ribbon.
Dutch Dare~summer theme.
Pile It On~non winter colors.
Pollycraft~things w/wings
Practical Scrappers~die cuts
This really was a fun project to make. I loved adding all the different textures and details.

I sure hope you get a chance to join the challenge. We sure would love to see your creations!

Saturday Spotlight Challenge #17 Teeny Tiny
For this week's challenge.....
The Spotlight Divas would like to challenge you to go the opposite from last week's challenge and think "teeny tiny" when making your creation this week!! ;) Please feel free to interpret this as you see fit!!
For our Spotlight sponsor this week we have...
Independent Distributor Kathe Slack from:
click HERE to go to her Angel store.
**One lucky winner from the entrants for the teeny tiny challenge this week drawn from random.org will receive this really AWESOME stamp set! **
MY TAKE ON THE CHALLENGE:I had so much fun with this challenge!! I used Leigh Ann Bairds smaller version included in the Cute Carton Template for my treat container and made a matching little scraplet card to go with it. My image and sentiment is from the SU True Friend set and the Bloomin Beautiful set. The paper is from some Time Flies scraps I had in my scrap bin. The colors are inspired by Die Cut Dreams Challenge and the Divine Diva Inspiration
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you are inspired by my creation to join this week's challenge. For more inspiration, please visit my dt sisters:

Thanks for stopping by today!! I hope you enjoyed all my creations. I sure enjoyed creating them!! I hope you are having a great weekend!
blessings,
Chris
