Happy Tuesday!

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

Is a sketch!!

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, October 21st at 8 p.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC126. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.

Here's my take on the challenge this week!


 
 
The tea cup is a little darker than I wanted, but...  I colored the image with my Prismacolor Pencils and mineral spirits.  I colored a second image and fussy cut the flowers and popped them on top of the main image for some depth.

Card Recipe:

Stamps: Birthday Blessings, Gel Well (ODBD)
Paper: Solar White (Neenah), The Chateau Lavender Stack (DCWV), Orchid Opulence, Whisper White (SU)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine)
Accessories: Moss Seam Binding (Really Reasonable Ribbon), Scrollwork Embossing Folder (Cuttlebug), Prismacolor Pencils: Prussian Green, Olive Green, Lavender, Dark Purple, Cool Grey 10% & 70%, White Gel Pen, Standard Circles Large & Large Petite Scallops (Spellbinders).

      Beautiful! Your coloring is amazing! It just pops right off that rich embossed purple background. Your beautiful ribbon, flower and pearl along with the dainty paper punched edge peeking out make this one delightful beauty! Hugs and blessings to you...
