VCMP for OWH - Challenge #1

I've been looking forward to our Labor Day weekend and three days off just to relax around the house, doing chores, sewing and making cards.  When I checked out the first challenge for OWH's VCMP, I was happy to see that I won a $25 gift certificate to Our Daily Bread Designs!  Wowee!  I don't have any of their stamps and I'm looking forward to getting some soon.
 
I make cards for OWH, but never expect to get anything in return, so it's encouraging to win something.  Thank you ODBD!!! 
 
ODBD is sponsoring our first challenge for the VCMP, which is to make a card with an encouraging sentiment.  For my card, I used a Spellbinders die to cut out the floral circles, which I backed with a piece of white vellum.  The floral circles are made from watercolor paper, which I brushed Distress Ink Squeeze Lemonade over using a water brush.
 
The sentiment may be too small to read in my picture, but it says " Friends fill your life with joy, Your soul with sunshine, And your heart with love".
 
 
Thanks again, ODBD!!

  5. I don't think I've seen this Spellbinders die. It stacks beautifully and this is such a nice color combo too. Hope you enjoy this weekend's VCMP!
