Romans 8:28

I am still playing along in challenges and it is really getting my stamping mojo going! First of all, I checked in with Our Daily Bread Designs yesterday and saw that they were having a scrapbook challenge to use the color fuchsia and or crystals. Well, I did not do a scrapbook page, but used those elements as my starting point for my card instead. I am not entering the challenge as it is not a scrapbook page. I saw the Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge to use Stars! And lastly I played along with the sketch challenge at There She Goes.

My card is pretty straightforward. I added a layer of Crystal Effects to my punched & embossed star and sprinkled a bit of glitter over the top. It really stands out!

Thanks for visiting. I am off to find some more challenges! teehee

Blessings!

"BLUSH"ing ODBD

Our Daily Bread Designs is celebrating their 3rd anniversary this year! These stamps continue to be my go-to scriptures and if I had my own way (and more $$) I would certainly own a lot more of their stamp sets!
The scripture I used for my card today was the verse I chose for one of the first anniversary scripture collections. I am participating in their Anniversary Challenge by using pearls on my card today. They are brown but I hope they still count. They matched the Basic Grey "Blush" papers so nicely!
The sketch I used was Viva la Verve Week 2. And I am also entering this into the Crafty Pad challenge to use buttons.
Thanks for visiting today!

A Black & White Proverb

While trying to get rid of a headache today, I did a little bit of stamping to get my mind off of it. I knocked out 2 challenges on this card-

both the Mojo Monday Sketch

as well as the Get Your Diva On Challenge which was to use neutrals with a pop of color.
The card was pretty quick once I decided on black and white. I dug through my scraps and found this cool black and white DP. The verse is one of my favorites and is a Plain Jane by Verve. The Victorian Embossing folder brought the black background to life. I nearly went with red as my color splash, but instead went with the bright spring green Prima flower and ribbon (Hobby Lobby) as my pop of color. Instead of hauling out my Wizard and dies, I went easier since my verse fit perfectly into my Marvy oval and scalloped oval punches.
Stamping helped a little, but I am hoping I am headacheless tomorrow so I can help take care of my grandbaby.
That's all I have for now!
Thanks for visiting!!!
