ODBDSLC224 - Anything Goes with ODBD

The Shining the Light challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs this week is anything goes with ODBD stamps.  Join us here for all of the details.




I'm sad to say that this is my last week on the Shining the Light challenge team, but I've had a wonderful time and I had a lot of fun making this card for the anything goes challenge.  I decided to make a masculine card this time with the wonderful Keep Climbing stamp set and the large eagle from the On Eagles Wings set.  The image was lightly colored and the eagle cut out and raised with foam tape.  I added a flourish and twine bow with a tag made with the Mini Tag Dies and Sentiments.

ODBD Dies Used: Mini Tag Dies, Fancy Foliage



Other Supplies: Embossing folder, twine, foam tape, copic markers, chalk

Friends of Speedy TV challenge #148 - Scenic Card

The Friends of Speedy TV challenge this week is to make a scenic card.  Join us here for a chance to win a stamp set and for all of the details on the latest challenge.


I usually make a couple extra cards after Christmas to stick in my stash for next year, just to get a little head start. For this one I made a church scene using the Little Church mini set and the New Pines set, with the greeting from the Crisp Winter stamp set.  I added glitter glue to the church and trees for sparkle as well as crystal sparkles in the sky. The background was raised with foam tape, as well as the trees and greeting.


Other Supplies: Spellbinder dies, foam tape, Stampin Up markers, glitter glue, crystal stickers.
