ODBDSLC215 - Anything Goes with ODBD Stamps (week 2)

We are now in to week 2 of the Our Daily Bread Designs Shining the Light Challenge (ODBDSLC215) - Anything Goes with ODBD stamps. You can see the first card that I made for this challenge here. Here is my card for this week:

For the background I've stamped Our Daily Bread Designs Joy to the World Hymn on silver card with Distress embossing ink and embossed using clear embossing powder (see image below for close up). The gorgeous blue diecut down the left side of my card is from ODBD Beautiful Borders die.

The way the light reflects off the silver card it almost looks like gold embossing - but it's actually clear :-)

For the image I have stamped Our Daily Bread Designs Mother and Child Ornament using Memento Tuxedo Black onto X-Press It blending card and coloured with Copic markers (I have the colours written down somewhere - will have to find them). I've then diecut using ODBD Circle Ornament dies and then matted with ODBD Matting Circles dies. The little ornament topper comes with the ODBD Circle Ornament dies and I've used my krylon gold leafing pen to colour it (thanks Cheryl for the idea)!

For my sentiment I have stamped the Merry Christmas from Our Daily Bread Designs Christmas Verses onto silver cardstock in black ink and clear embossed. I've then diecut it using a die from ODBD Vintage Flourish Pattern and matted with a larger die from the same set, ODBD Vintage Flourish Pattern dies.

Lastly I've added a few 4 mm silver sprinkles to the top right of my card.

It's getting to the time of year where we remember and celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ! How great is the love of our Lord God toward us that He sent His only Son to earth, so that He may live a perfect life and become the perfect sacrifice for our sins. So that we may have an eternal life with God!
