Happy Christmas Eve Everyone!


I wish you all a joyous Christmas filled with the love of our Lord and family!

Please see ODBD Blog for all the details!


This is my creation:


The lovely image is from the   ODBD "Simple Things" set! After stamping the image twice and coloring with Copic Markers, it was cut out using ODBD's "Custom Clover Die"!  The Custom Die makes it so easy to cut out!  The flowers were poped up on the Spellbinder's "Fleur de Lis Rectangles" Die and the sentiment was centered in the middle! I scored the base of the card using my "Scor-Pal"!  The leaves and swirls in the background were created using CherryLynn's Fanciful Floruish! Ribbon and pearls were also added!


Please stop by to see what the ODBD Challenge Team have created:









We hope you will play along with us! Remember you have two weeks!

We would love to see your creations!

Thanks for stopping by!  Remember to hug your loved ones! Hugs!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Oh my goodness - this is beautiful! There is just something about all white cards I love. Love how you used the clover for your corners and the bit of mauve ribbon just sets it off. Merry Christmas to you and your family as well.

This is so fab. The stamp and the dies you used make a stunning display. Your coloring on the clover is excellent. I think I still have some Christmas money. Hmmm...
