Lois' Card for ODBD Shining the Light Challenge


Hello everyone~
I just had to share this card with you today, because as you know my sister has been here and we had such a great visit!  We did LOTS of things, but one of the most fun was when we went to my craft room and she really wanted to make a card!  So.... I gave her my new Our Daily Bread designs stamps, paper, ink.... and she went to town!  This is her first ever card!!! Isn't it great???  She used Sewn with Love (from the Blessings Series) and the new Flower Border, made for the Spellbinder's Labels Eighteen!  She also used Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Motifs and an older flourish, as well as Cheery Lynn Mini Butterflies.  She doesn't have a blog.... so I'm posting this for her so she can enter it in ODBDSLC70 sketch challenge, since that's why she made it!  

Thanks so much for stopping and for any encouraging comments you might have for my sis!

    Hi Grace!! You can see the talent runs in the family cause your dear sister did a gorgeous take on the sketch!! Love the choice of dp, the use of the flower frame, and her added die cuts. So glad she was able to play along with ODBD!!

    There must be something in the DNA, because she has a lovely style. Ok, maybe it 'cause she has seen your lovely style a 'few' times. Anyway, it is gorgeous!!!

    This is my first visit to your blog and when I heard the music, I checked the listing and had to listen to Mercy Me, "I can only imagine." Thank you for the lift you have given today!
