Happy Saturday Everyone!! I hope you are all having a great beginning to your weekend!! My hubby and I are trying hard to organize our basement and attic...so much to do to unpack the remainder of our belongings but we are getting closer...Woohoo!! Soon I may be able to organize all my crafts too!! Oh how nice it will be to know where everything is!
Anywho..today I am popping in to share this week's Shining the Light challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs using a sneak peek of "Dream" to be released on May 1.

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 three or more of our participants for the Shining the Light Award . In order to qualify for this award or join the challenge, however, you must use Our Daily Bread stamps and have your submission added to Mr. Linky by Friday, May 4th at 8 a.m. EST.

Here is my take on the challenge:
Card Recipe:
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs- Dream (Sneak Peek to be released on May 1)
Embossing Folder: Stampin Up-Textured Impressions Framed Tulips
Dies:
Spellbinders Dies: Persian Accents, Fleur De Lis Squares, Bitty Blossoms, Classic Squares
Punches: Martha Stewart Twig Punch
Lace Ribbon: May Arts
I had fun making this card without Designer Paper. I even challenged myself to make the flowers using the Spellbinders Bitty Blossoms. The larger leaves are also using the same die set. I hope to use this card for a graduation.
