This is my second post of the day!  If you are looking for the CottageCutz Blog Hop, please see the post below or click here!

Happy Tuesday everyone!

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

This week's challenge is:

Needle it!! Use piercing or real stitching 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, May 5 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, May 5 at 8 p.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC152. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge.

 

Here is my card for the challenge this week!

I chose to do piercing (on the black mat) because I'm not too fond of sewing!  The one time I tried machine sewing on paper it came out terrible!  I used the beautiful Romantic Floral Designs Stamps for the flourished frames on the layers, matching the Labels 26 Dies.  The sentiment is from the Flourished Verses Set which I think goes nicely with the frames.  The thing I love about these frames is they're clear stamps so it's easy to stamp them around sentiments.  Here are the sets I used.
