Everything!

Hello and good Sunday afternoon stamping friends! WOW, it has been a little while since I was able to post, but  let me just say, I was truly sick. I have no idea where or what kind of virus I caught, but I was out of commission from late Wednesday night until yesterday. No fun and something I would not wish on anybody! Anyhow, let me share this card with you. For today's card I went all patriotic and sort of fitting for tomorrows holiday here in the US, Presidents day.  For my base I started with some Rustic Cream colored card stock, layered some Brilliant Blue and finished it off with a sheet of the amazing ODBD Custom paper from the Heart & Soul Collection. I am pretty sure you can see that this sheet of paper perfectly matches one of the February newly released stamp sets, which is also called "Heart & Soul" , I just love how super easy this one can about. I also used the brand new ODBD Custom Beautiful Borders dies and Ornate Hearts and in combination with a few stars and an eagle charm this card was just about done. I did want to use the Proverbs 4:23 verse which worked perfectly with the eagle charm. Have a closer look at my card

Guard You Heart

Recipe:

Paper: PTI Rustic Cream, SU Brilliant Blue, DP ODBD Heart & Soul Collection

Stamps: ODBD Heart & Soul

Inks: SU Riding Hood Red, Tim Holtz Distress Ink Faded Jeans, VersaFine Onyx Black,

This is my card for today, I hope I was able to inspire you with this card!

I pray that you found some inspiration and if you have not seen the February release yet, I strongly encourage you to head on over to the ODBD store and do so. This is truly an absolutely stunning release and the possibilities are endless.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I will see you all real soon with some more sample! ;D

Love You Bunches

Happy Monday stamping friends! I am coming to you with two projects, yes, two. I was supposed to post last week, but I caught a bug and was out of commission  for a few days with a head cold and fever and was not feeling well enough to be sitting up, but I am getting better, fever is gone and I am not dizzy anymore when I sit up more than 5 minutes, so that is a good thing.
