Psalm 36:5

     Welcome to Tuesday's Shining the Light challenge with Our Daily Bread Designs!  This week's challenge is called Secret Admirer.  We want you to CASE someone you admire or a card you've always wanted to CASE. 
     I chose to CASE this card by ODBD designer Cathy McCauley.

       Cathy's blog is Golden Inkspirations.  She creates beautiful artwork with beautiful details!
     Here is my card:

Linda Carson, ODBD
     Cathy used solid colors plus an extra layer of paper.  I used a mixture of patterns.  She did a zigzag stitch on one side of her card and I went with only straight stitching.  O.k., maybe it's not straight....but it's suppose to be!
     The stamps Cathy and I used are from the Faith set.  I used the Butterfly Branch die, Beautiful Border die and the Quatrefoil die.
     I hope Cathy likes it as much as I enjoyed CASing it!
       For more inspiration on this challenge please visit these creative ladies from the challenge team,
      
 
         To see all of the creations in one place or join in on the challenge click here.  You have until Sunday, February 23 to enter.
     For this challenge you may use any stamps but it you have any Our Daily Bread Designs stamps we would love to see you use them. If you participate, you have a  chance to win the $15 certificate toward ODBD stamps or to be Spotlighted for the Shining the Light Award (The Shining the Light Award is only for those who use ODBD stamps). 
      I hope you'll create with us this week and above all have fun with this challenge!
     Have a wonderful day!

  12. Oh this is lovely. Wonderful take on the original card. Love the gorgeous DP's and design. So blessed you joined us at last week's Challenge at Word Art Wednesday. Our new Challenge is now live and we'd love for you to join us again. Can't wait to see what you link up this time. Leaving you with the inspiration of God's Word in Psalm 30:5, "For His anger endureth but a moment, and in His favor is life; weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning."
