ODBD Anniversary Challenge #3

Gold blk

Today, we continue our Anniversary theme. As with all our challenges, it was announced on the ODBD blog on Mar. 7th so you could get a head start, and we hope you had a chance to do that, but if not there is still time!

Silver and Gold are the traditional gifts for those special milestones in a marriage... the 25th and 50th Anniversaries.
Today's challenge is to make a project that includes silver and/or gold.

Be sure to link your project to Mr Linky on the
ODBD blog by 8pm EST tonight!
The winner will be chosen by random and will receive a $25.00 Gift Certificate for stamps from the Our Daily Bread designs store! The winner will be announced on the ODBD Blog post tomorrow when we issue the next challenge!

Please be sure to visit all the blogs linked below, and leave a comment for each designer, because there is hidden candy on some of the blogs! You will not know where it is, but if your name is chosen and you have left a comment for the designers... you will win it!!! You won't know how many have candy each day... so be sure to visit them all and leave some love!
Winners of the individual blog candy will be announced by the blog owners who had the candy on the next day on their blogs. There will also be a big announcement on March 19th here on the
ODBD Blog recapping ALL the winners... the challenges, the blog candy, and the blog hop winners!

Now, here's my card

Golden Day Believe it or not, this was a very quick, simple card to put together! Easter Blessings embossed in Ranger detail gold, colored with Prismacolor pencils! Two layers of Big Scalloped Rectangles, wired ribbon atop black and gold layers... voila! Done!

*If uploading to SCS or other on line gallery, please use keyword ODBD2AC3.

Now, go see what the these girls did with Silver & Gold!

Actually I think they should all come with a warning... *Jaws Could Be Injured While Viewing* LOL... Gorgeous!
