Our Daily Bread Designs Shining the Light Challenge - ODBDSLC100

Happy Saturday!

It's time for another Shining the Light Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs! 

This week's challenge:

Since next week will be the Our Daily Bread Designs Anniversary Blog hop, this challenge will last two weeks.

Today marks the second March Anniversary challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs. The anniversary stone given for the fourth anniversary is topaz and the birthstone for March is aquamarine. This week we want to see aqua or topaz (blue) with your favorite scripture, sentiment, or quote. 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 23rd at 8 a.m. EST. 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 most of our challenges, this month it is an Our Daily Bread Designs only challenge month in honor of the ODBD 4th Anniversary. Three or more of our participants will be chosen 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,

March 23rd at 8 a.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC100. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.

Here is my sample for the challenge this week!

After taking this picture, I decided to add some leaves and some pearls around the quote.  I like it much better, but when I re-did the picture it made the card look more blue than aqua.  It makes it look like a different card, but it's actually the same one!  I figured I'd give you both pictures!

The stamp I used for the quote, is from the God's Love Set released in January.  There's something about this quote that I just LOVE.  I keep saying it over and over in my head!  I tried to pick a favorite verse, but that's like picking your favorite child!  I love them all!
