ODBDSLC111 - Something Old, New, Borrowed, Blue

Happy Saturday!!!

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

This week's challenge:

Since June is known as the wedding month...This week the team is challenging to make a creation using something old, something new, something borrowed or gifted, and something blue.

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, June 15th 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, June 15th at 8 a.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC111. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.
Here's my take on the challenge this week:



Old: black cardstock scraps; New: stamp set; Gifted: ribbon; Blue: ribbon, panel paper


I used the new Bicycle Stamp Set again for this one, this time using the quote from Abraham Lincoln.  I like how the quote is tall and narrow and thought this was a good sketch for it.  I used some new designer papers for this, Prima's Nature Garden and My Mind's Eye's Lost & Found.  The crochet flower is also from Prima and the gorgeous seam binding is from a RAK from my sweet friend Jill!
For all ingredients used:
Paper: Black (SU), Nature Garden (Prima), Lost & Found (MME)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine)
Accessories: Baja Breeze Seam Binding (RAK/SU), adhesive pearls, (Want-2-Scrap), Fanciful Flourish (Cheery Lynn)
For more inspiration, visit the other DT ladies and their beautiful creations!

Hope to see you join in the challenge this week.

I'm also submitting this to Word Art Wednesday's Challenge #31 to use anything uplifting or use the verse image they provided, Ezekiel 36:26.

Also, to Really Reasonable Ribbon Challenge #49 to use flowers and ribbon.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Blessings!

Kathy
