In With the New.. Out With the Old...

Today's the day... the sun is shining, the tank is clean! (oh wait.. that is a line from Finding Nemo!)  But today is the day that I share my other good news... I'm now a design team member for Our Daily Bread Designs!!!  The Shining the Light challenge team to be exact and I can't tell you how excited I am to be a part of this amazing company!!   So now... on to this week's challenge:  "In with the new....out with the Old".   The team challenges you to create a card using something new and something old on your card.

  10. Hello Rosie
    Well congratulations on becoming a Team Member at ODBD, they will be delighted with what you create for them, no question about that.
    A beautiful monochromatic card.
    The cross image connects well with your corners and gives a wonderful balance to your card, I am wondering whether you would have left them off if you did not have to include something old!
    I know how you love to wallow in your white space! Ha.
    Smiles:)
