Keep My Lamp Burning
I'm excited to show off a brand-new, beautiful stamp set released today by Our Daily Bread Designs. It's called Keep My Lamp Burning, and was illustrated by fellow DT member, Dina Kowal. The upper left corner is designed to hold one of four different sentiments, three are Bible verses and one is a quote. I really love the artsy, collage look of this lighthouse image. It looks great colored traditionally or stamped onto dp or onto a handmade background - great for technique lovers.
For today's card, I stamped on watercolor paper, heat embossed, and then watercolored with an aqua brush and re-inkers. The patterned papers are from a photo mat stack by K&Co. I embellished with a new-to-me BossKut flourish die. I love all these swirly dies and just keep on stocking up whenever I see one that strikes my fancy. This one, Flourish #0739, was purchased from Cut @ Home. I coated the lighthouse with Ranger Crackle Glaze. Here's a close-up:
And here's a look at the full set:
ODBD introduced two more sets today as well:

This card is truly inspired! I love the crackle glaze on the lighthouse -- perfect. I love lighthouses and recently climbed to the top of the old Cape Henry lighthouse and the crackle treatment is very appropriate!! The ODBD stamps are wonderful and I'll be doing some shopping soon.

Hi Amy!

More things to add to my wish list!

Julee is so correct in saying every card is better than the last one!! Can't wait until the next one!
The crackle glaze adds so much! This is a gorgeous card Amy!
Such a gorgeous card, Amy :)
Just one word, stunning creativity. Hugs from Desire
Oh, this is gorgeous, Amy!!!!! Did the Ranger stuff crack it automatically or did you have to crack it like with the crack glass technique? Beautifully done!!!! I need to get that swirl, too!!!!
Nicely done!
