ODBDSLC122 - Birds

Happy Tuesday!

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

This week's challenge: Use a bird or birds on 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 Sunday, September 16th at 8 p.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 Sunday, September 16th at 8 p.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC122. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.

Here's my take on the challenge this week...

 

 

 

I used a little bird charm I bought at Michaels and attached it with a chain and jump ring to the bow.  The quote from Mother Teresa is from the Let Us Begin Stamp Set from Our Daily Bread Designs.  Here's a view of the whole set...

 

Next time, I'd like to use the lotus flower corners so I can do some coloring!  Here's the complete card recipe:

Stamps: Let Us Begin (Our Daily Bread Designs)
Paper: Almanac (Prima), Black (Recollections), Iced Cocoa (Coredinations)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine), Mocha Mama (Powder Puffs), Capers (Bazzills)
Accessories: Detailed Embossing Powder (Stampendous), heat gun, Labels 23 (Spellbinders), rhinestone flourish, silk leaves (Recollections), chain, jump ring, brad, charm (Michaels), flower (RAK from Sabrina), ribbon (Jo-Ann's), distressing tool, Fanciful Flourish (Cheery Lynn).

There's lots more inspiration from my design teammates along with our Guest Designer this month, Katherine Lawson!  Please visit their blogs and get inspired!
