Hello wonderful blog friends! We have an exciting day for you today! Today is the ODBD Third Anniversary Blog Hop! You should be joining me from Silke's fabulous blog!

For those of you that do not have any ODBD stamps, this is a great opportunity to win some!!!

Today I created an 8x8 layout with "my" scripture verse in the new Scripture Collection 7 set! I have SO many favorite scriptures but this one really speaks to me! I pray you love it too! I also used two other ODBD sets--He Will Rise to stamp the crosses on the canvas banner and Don't Worry where I stamped the flower onto sticky back canvas, inked it with distress ink, and then I spritzed it with Glimmer Mist before cutting it out.
