ODBDSLC54, C4C80 Frame it!!!

Hello my sweet stampin' friends!

Today is my last week hosting the March Crazy 4 Challenges ~ C4C80. A BIG THANK YOU to everyone that played along so far! For today's challenge I created a Sketch and I/we would love it if you have a chance to play along! We also have a *Sponsor* this week...so swing by the C4C blog to check out all the information and the fabulous cards the Crazies have created!!!


So, what do you think of the Sketch???? How about combining it with this weeks ODBD Shining Light Challenge ~ ODBDSLC54. The theme this week is to *FRAME IT*!!!

Here is my idea......




My card today is in memory of my supervisor Janice...today is her Memorial Service...sniff!!! I will give it to her son Matthew. I chose the beautiful Bible Verse John 11:25 and it's from the *I am the Way....* Set. My color theme for this card is Bermuda Bay. The fab flowers are new and they are from Prima. My *frame* was created with the Top Note and an Oval Spellbinder Die. I embellished the rest of my card with some scoring, some matching Ribbon and the Silver Pearls.

Now it's time to hop on over to my ODBD sisters and their take on the *framing* Challenge ~ Sabrina, Chris, FranciePat and our Guest Designer Lori for their design ideas!

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by my blog today :) !!! Have a wonderful weekend and I'll see you again on Tuesday! Hugs ~S~
