On Sunday, ODBD revealed its new December release, and the Design and Alumni Teams created some gorgeous projects! I hope you'll check out some of the beauties they've created. You can see them on the ODBD Gallery or on Pinterest.
This week's Shining the Light challenge is to use Double Embossing. I used an image from the new Ornate Borders and Flowers set and colored the frame. I heat embossed the sentiment for a wedding card using Love Scriptures and then dry embossed with ink for the background. I added a coordinating ribbon and also one of the very special flowers that Sabrina Jackson (one of our Design Team members) sent me. She has the sweetest style using what I like to call "bitty flowers" with beautifully placed lace and pearls. I think the flower works with the card for my first time using one. (But it's nothing like Sabrina's beauties! Thanks, Sabrina!)
