Hello Friends!! Christmas is just around the corner. I just love this time of year as we remember the greatest gift ever given, our Savior's birth!! The added decorations, love from fellow men and the time spent with families and friends just adds to the special gift of the season!! What a joyous time of the year!
Today I am popping in to share a scenic card I created for the ODBDSLC281 Reminder"Be Sentimental" Challenge for Our Daily Bread Designs Shining the Light Challenge. The trees are stamped and masked 6 times from the Joys of the Season stamp set (ODBD). The clouds are created with the Clouds and Raindrops Die as a stencil. The dp for the pennants is created using the Rustic Beauty and Boho Bolds Paper Collection.
Card Recipe: Joy of the Season, Pennant Flag Verses, Pennant Flag Dies, Double Stitched Pennant Flag dies, and Deco Border die. The clouds are created by using the Clouds and Raindrops die.
For more inspiration for the challenge, please visit my dt sisters: Diana, Robin, and Julie.

Hello Friends!! December is here and Christmas is just around the corner. Wow!! Time Flies!! I just love this time of year as we remember the greatest gift ever given, our Savior's birth!! I am a bit behind in making Christmas cards. I love creating them and there is nothing like a personal touch sent to all those you care about.
Today I am popping in to share a scenic card I created for the ODBDSLC281 Reminder"Be Sentimental" Challenge for Our Daily Bread Designs Shining the Light Challenge. I had a blast creating this Surprise Box. It certainly does not look as busy in person as does in the picture. I just love all the sparkle of the glitter blue and white cardstock and the shimmer of the silver metallic cardstock.
The Surprise Box itself is created using a special Surprise Box die from ODBD. The snowflakes are die cut and layered using the Snow Crystals dies. The base of the box is covered with a piece of blue dp dry embossed with Darice Snowflake Swirls.
ODBD Stamps Used: Pennant Flag Verses (Clear Stamps)
We would love to see you join us for the challenge! You have until December 30 to join us. Please link your creations here. You must use at least one ODBD, Northcoast Creations, or Artistic Outpost stamp to join.

Hello Friends!! I hope this post finds you all well.
For many in the USA this is a big day and feel the elections can make a huge difference in this country. While I will share some words about my thoughts (not my political views!!) later in this post, I want to share a card I created for the Shining the Light Challenge at ODBD first.
This weeks challenge (ODBDSLC280) is a sketch! For my creation I used the new Merry and Bright Stamp set, the Snow Crystals die, Christmas lights die, and the Snowflake Season Paper Collection as well as the previously released Double Stitched Rectangles, Pierced Circles and Circles dies.
We would love to see you join us for this challenge!! You have until Sunday, November 27th to join us!! You can link your creations here at the ODBD blog. Remember you can use any stamps for your first entry but any additional entries for the challenge must use ODBD, Artistic Outpost or Northcoast Creations stamps)
No on to my thoughts for today....
For many in the USA we are all awaiting with baited breath over the results of today's presidential election. It seems like the life of the USA as we know it is all resting on it's outcome. All who rest in Him and trust in God's providence know, however, while the future of our country rests on events here on earth, God is in control and will allow what occurs. I am sure I will have to remind myself of this tonight as I watch the news as well.
37Who is there who speaksand it comes to pass, Unless the Lord has commanded it? 38Is it not from the mouth of the Most High That both good and ill go forth?…
Lamentations 3:37, 38
Thanks so much for your visits and comments!! I so appreciate your support and all the love shared. Have a blessed day!

My first creation uses the new stamp set Merry and Bright as well as the new Snowflake Sky Background, Snowflake Crystals Die, Christmas Lights Die, and the Snowflake Season Paper Collection. The fold I created is a Book Fold design using the Pre Cut Book Fold Cards from the ODBD Store. The inside is decorated with the Snowflake Season Paper Collection layered on Metallic Gold Cardstock. The sentiment is from the Merry and Bright Stamp set and is framed with the Circles and Pierced Circles dies. The opposite panel includes a snowflake using a variety of snowflake dies from the Snowflake Crystals dies that are layered using white glitter cardstock, silver metallic cardstock, gold metallic cardstock, and red cardstock.
The outside of the card is decorated with the Snowflake Sky background, another layered snowflake created with the Snowflake Crystals die layered on the Snowflake Season Paper Collection framed with the Circles and Pierced Circles dies. The sentiment is from the Merry and Bright stamp set.
My second creation is more simplistic using a traditional fold created with the Merry and Bright stampset (sentiment) as well as the new Snowflake Sky Background, and Snowflake Crystals Die. The sentiment is framed with the Antique Labels die.
The cardstock used for this card uses Neenah White, silver metallic cardstock, real red, and black.
