A Friend's Love

     Welcome again!  We're continuing to celebrate the 6th Anniversary of ODBD!!  Actually this week marks the 6th Anniversary so we challenge you to have 6 of one item on your card (6 layers, 6 pearls, 6 words, etc.).  Here's my card. 
Linda Carson, ODBD
     I chose 6 flying ladybugs!  I realize there are 7 there but only 6 are flying!!  The ladybugs, scripture and zinnia are all part of the Zinnia set.  I also used the Zinnia and Leaves coordinating dies.  The Quatrefoil die was used as a trellis with Fancy Foliage die the leaves. 
     The final details include a button and tread, rhinestones and my first ever attempt with a stencil and paste for the hearts. 
     I was anxious for this challenge because my best friend Janey loves ladybugs and she's a friend who loves at all times!!  I love her too!
     For more inspiration on this challenge please visit these amazingly creative ladies from the challenge team,
