ODBDSLC99 ~You are a Blessing~ Stamped flowers

6:00 AM | Posted by Chris Olsen, Glowbug | | Edit Post

Happy Saturday All!! I hope you are having a great weekend!!

Today I am popping in to share this week's Shining the Light challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs.

This week's challenge: Since our March challenges are now beginning and this month marks the FOURTH Anniversary of Our Daily Bread Designs, all our challenges will focus on the Anniversary!!! Since one of the traditional gifts for the fourth anniversary is flowers. We would like to see flowers on your creations. Not just flower embellishments but flower stamps. You must use Our Daily Bread Stamps to link your creation.

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 Friday, March 9th at 8 a.m. EST. One random winner will be chosen and announced next Saturday. If you are not using ODBD stamps, please do not enter more than once. Additional entries without using ODBD stamps will not be commented on or will they qualify for prizes.

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 again be choosing 1 to 2 creations to spotlight for our Shining the Light Award.Inorder to qualify for this award, however, you must use Our Daily Bread stamps and have yoursubmission added to Mr. Linky by Friday, March 9th at 8 a.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC99. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.

Now on to my interpretation of this challenge:

For my creation I used some of my favorite stamp sets from Our Daily Bread Designs: Sing to the Lord and Flourished Verses. The sentiment is framed with the Labels 4 dies from Spellbinders. The Background is embossed with the Provocraft Textile embossing folder. The ribbon is silk lavender from May Arts. The sketch is from Splitcoast's sketch challenge this week: SC374.
