It's time for a new ODBD Shining the Light Challenge!
This week's challenge:
Since spring is now here and signs of new life are happening all around us we want to see creations symbolizing new life…this can be Easter, new baby, budding trees, flowers…..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 Friday, April 13th 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 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, April 13 at 8 a.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery , please use the keyword is ODBDSLC103. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.
Here is my take on the challenge...
Here's the inside...very simple...
This is my interpretation of "New Life", a new creation in Christ! I can't think of a better verse than this one to represent new life! I am in Christ and I'm a new creation, and thankfully the "old" has gone!
This beautiful verse is from ODBD's Scripture Series 2 Stamp Set. I decided on white and yellow, which I love this time of the year.
I'm also entering this in a new challenge for me, Word Art Wednesday. You can use a verse or quote that they post on their blog for you on Wednesdays, or use one of your own.
For the ingredients I used:
Stamps: Scripture Series 2
Paper: Solar White (Neenah), "yellow" (DCWV Cardstock), Meadow Lark Collection (Prima)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine), Banana Bliss (Powder Puffs)
Accessories: Labels 8, Large Labels Nestibilities (Spellbinders), sponge, adhesive pearls (Want2Scrap), Branches s/Leaves & Flowers Embossing Folder (Sizzix), Ribbon (my stash), silk flower (wedding spray - Michaels), stamems (Michaels), stick pin, crystals, and beads (Michaels & Pretties Kit - SU)
For more inspiration, please visit the other Design Team Members blogs for their gorgeous creations for the challenge:
That's it for now, I hope to see you join in on the challenge this week!
Have a wonderful, blessed Easter!
Blessings!
