I used the Sweet Stop Sketch for my layout.


Here are a few more details:

Stamps: Tulip from Heart Song Design Digis
Paper: Parisian Breeze DP, Chocolate, Baja BReeze
Ink: same colors
Accessories: Aquapainter, Creative Inspiration Paints Blue ice, Dimensionals, Paper Piercing Tool, Mat Pack

HIDDEN GOODIE BOX

Hello EVeryone! I am visiting at Village Creek Bible Camp this week and enjoying some quiet time! I am so blessed by the staff. We have had a great speaker, great food and no interruptions! I am keeping everyone who has been affected whether it be with family, friends and loved ones who have been involved some how with the tsunami and earthquakes, in my prayers!

Todays project uses the Goodie Box tutorial from the Technique Junkie Newsletter 02/11 issue. I also used I Brake for Stamps and the Inspiration Sheets Plate 5

You can save 10% by using my savings code SAVE10CHRIS


When I first created this, I didn't quite know what to do with the inside.... but now that I look at this blank box, I have some ideas - too bad it is at home!


I head home tomorrow, so I will be back in my normal routine by Tuesday! (hubby took time off on Monday! We haven't seen each other in eleven days! since he has been out of town for business)


Thanks for stopping by! I hope you have a wonderful day!!!

Week 2 {ODBDLYLS3} Scrapbook Challenge

Hi Everyone ~ we are on Week 2 of our new Let Your Light Shine Scrapbook Challenge here at Our Daily Bread Designs. This is a very special month for ODBD-- it's ODBD's 3rd Anniversary Celebration! There will be lots of fun activities all month, and our challenge this month will be based on the 3rd anniversary. 

Our March Anniversary Challenge this month goes along with the 3rd anniversary modern gift (crystal/glass) and the 3rd anniversary flower (fuchsia). So your challenge for March is to use:

**fuchsia flowers or the color fuchsia for the anniversary flower OR**crystal or glass for the anniversary modern gift (this can be faux crystal gems, a glass embellishment, etc.), AND**ODBD stamps!

Each month, we are also going to try and give you "scrappy stamping" tips so that it will help you use your stamps on those scrapbook pages. Patter, had an awesome idea HERE. I will share one on my next post too!


Here are the details:
Stamps: From Me To You, Eternity
Accessories:  Craft Template, Copic Markers, Crackle AccentsEctasy Craft Small Template, Dimensionals, Dew Drops, Mini Glue Dots

Here is a close up with the Crackle Accents - I thought I would use this as a good way to tie in some "crystal."

To see close-up photos, complete supply lists, etc., please visit the designers individual blogs by clicking on their name just above their scrapbook page. 


Now, it is your turn to play! To see all of the guidelines for your chance to win a $25 gift certificate, please see this post here. The challenge runs from today through Thursday, March 31st, at 6 pm EST. You have all month to enter. I hope you will play along this month. We didn't have many entries last month. I am praying we see a lot more in March! :) Thanks for stopping by! Have a blessed day!
