ODBDSLC107 - Scrapbook Page

Happy Saturday!
It's time for a new Shining the Light Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs!

This week's challenge:

Since today is National Scrapbooking Day, we want to see you make a scrapbook layout (any size).

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, May 11th 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, May 11th at 8 a.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC107. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.

Here is my scrapbook page for the challenge this week.

This is a picture of me when I was probaby about 4 years old.  Probably seems silly to scrapbook one of my own photos, but this one has special meaning to me.  It just totally reminds me of my Mom who passed away a few years ago.  I don't remember if she kept it framed on the wall or not, but I think she may have.

The photo was "colorized" so I tried to match the papers and embellishments with it.  I found these beautiful papers at a scrapbook store that I use to go to a long time ago when I did a little scrapbooking.  Things have changed a lot since I made scrapbooks for my boys, so I did the best I could with what I've seen.

I used a new stamp set from Our Daily Bread Designs called "Flourished Verses".  It's a pretty set with some basic sentiments that are good to have on hand.

For ingredients used:

Stamps: Flourished Verses (Our Daily Bread Designs)
Paper: Be Happy Be Joyful Paper, Follow Your Heart (My Mind's Eye), darl green, med. green, peach, pink, old pink (no names - from scrapbook store)
