~ Ornate Borders ~

Good morning!  Hope you are having a blessed Lord's day!  The weather outside is frightful!  So frightful in fact, that I had to cancel a business trip for tomorrow!  I love looking at snow but it tends to annoy me when I have to change my travel plans.  But when life gives you lemons you make lemonade.  So I guess in this case, I will make snowballs and have an old fashioned snowball fight!  :-) 

 

Today I have a wonderful card to share featuring a few things from the December release at Our Daily Bread Designs...

 

and some of the ODBD products I used...

 

Ornate Background

 

 

 

Ornate Borders Sentiments

 

 

Ornate Borders and Flowers

 

 

and coordinating

 Ornate Borders & Flower Die

 

 



I began with a 5.5 x 4.25 inch card base in a rich red.  I then used the Ornate Background stamp to create my next layer on white card stock.  After trimming it slightly smaller, I added it to the base layer.  I cut a smaller piece of card stock and used a Spellbinder ornament shaped die to create a frame.  I added it with dimensional foam and stamped coordinating corners using Ornate Borders and Flowers.  I added those after trimming by hand and used Ornate Borders Sentiments, Ornate Borders and Flowers and the Ornate Borders & Flower Die to create my sentiment.  I added it to a seam binding bow (dressed up with a pearl) and added it to the top!  Love the shadow look! 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I will have several projects to share this week including another Word Art Wednesday project, Exploring Cricut, North Coast Creations and a few Our Daily Bread Designs' posts!  WHEW!!!  And stop back tomorrow as I share some of the home décor things going on at my house!  I thought I might give you a peek into some of the Christmas decorating going on at the Ulrichs'!  ;-) 

 

Until next time...

 

Blessings...
