OWH ODBD Challenge "YOU MEAN THE WORLD TO ME" lot of cards for kids *w/MEASUREMENTS

 *MEASUREMENTS DOWN BELOW/ALONG WITH SKETCH.

The theme for this month's OWH ODBD Challenge is "SENTIMENTS".  Thank you to Our Daily Bread Designs for your support of OWH and our Troops!!!  Hooah!!

With a theme such as Sentiments, it's a perfect time to use again a stamp set I recently purchased that is made by Stamps of Life called Phrases2Say. I ended up making 10 cards in total.

In making these 10 cards, the thing that took me the most time.. was putting the foam tape on the back of these panels.

This paper is just too darn adorable.  I wish I had bought more packs of it.   The paper is some that I bought at Tuesday Morning sometime last year. I am not sure how many were in each package, but they were only .99 cents.. what a deal!  

also!!!  After searching all over the place for mini/tiny brads.. I finally found them and was so excited when my package arrived yesterday.. I LOVE THEM!!!  They are from the EYELETOUTLET and only $1.99 for 40.  I ordered a whole bunch!!!

**THIS IS THE SKETCH I USED:  SSSC235

*MEASUREMENTS:

card base:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"

black layer:  4 1/8" x 5 3/8"

pattern layer:  4"  x 5 1/4"

large panel:

black layer:  3 3/8" x 4 5/8"

rectangle layer:

black layer: 2 5/8" x 3 3/8"

pattern layer:  2 1/2" x  3 1/4"

banner flag:

black layer;  1 3/4" wide *I cut mine about 1 1/2-2" because it was going to be tucked up under the other layer and you wasn't going to see it. 

pattern layer:  1 5/8" wide.    I laid the pattern on the black layer and then cut the fish tails, then moved up the pattern paper when I adhered them together.

sentiment was stamped on a 2 1/2" circle and I die-cut a black layer using my MFT Circle Stax dies

Thank You Sharon for letting me know I had a measurement wrong and missing a layer. I was half awake last night while posting it.  I appreciate you letting me know. {{HUGS}}
