Mother Teresa Sneak Peek


As I mentioned on yesterday's post, this may be one of my fave months yet as a designer for Our Daily Bread Designs......because of the incredible sets coming out on July 1st. I have always loved Mother Teresa and I think she was one of the most brilliant and wise human beings God ever created.....what a blessing she was to sooooo many people! Now I am the one blessed to be able to use her words on these stamps to bless others!
This set is simply called "Mother Teresa". Several of her loved quotes are featured in this set, along with the beautiful lotus flower. (Okay, I called it a water lily, Kelley!)
I stamped the quote and lotus directly on the Kraft card with Stazon Jet Black, colored with sponge daubers using masks, then colored the blossoms with a Sakura gel pen for that ceramic glazed look that I love so much! The border punch was EK Success' Dotted Scallop and the photo corner is also EK Success. It was a relief to make a one layer card.....sigh!!!

And I'm going to remind ya'all again to sign up for the e-newsletter again at ODBD, so just in case I don't post for a while, you will know what the Super Sunday Special is for the week. I can fill you in: All Prism Cardstocks are 25% off, while supplies last! This includes Prismatic Packs, Simply Smooths, and Metallics! Sale ends Saturday night, June 27, at midnight. Note: Sale prices will be reflected in your shopping cart.

One more thing: Check back on July 1st for another fun blog hop....with candy!!!




Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a blessed day!!!
