ODBDSLC112 - Summer

Good Morning!

It's time for a new Shining the Light Challenge!

This week's challenge:

Since it is officially summer in the USA this week, let's see your summer themed creations. They can include gardening, boats, and etc..... anything related to a summer activity.

If you are not using ODBD stamps, please do not enter more than once or we will have to delete your entries.

 

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 22nd 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 22nd at 8 a.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC112. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.

Here's my take on the challenge this week!  Flowers with a watering can, looks pretty summery to me!  The image is from an older set called "Happy Birthday", really pretty.  There's actually a matching die for this image that you can use to cut it out, if you want.  The sentiment I used is from a new set "Birthday Blessings", I love the swirly font on this, so pretty!

For all ingredients used:

Stamps: Birthday Blessings, Happy Birthday (ODBD)
Paper: Natural White (Neenah), Mocha Devine (Bazzills), Habitat Paper Pad (Recollections), green (stash)
Ink: Vintage Sepia (VersaFine), Amaretto (Powder Puffs)
