Good morning! Welcome to Our Daily Bread Designs' March release! I am SO excited to share this month's release with you! If you are in the mood for spring (and who isn't????) this is the perfect release for you! Flowers, sweet sentiments and bees, oh my!
And to make browsing our design teams' projects even more special, three winners will be randomly chosen from the comments left on the designers' blogs. The winners will receive a $25 gift certificate to the ODBD Store, to be used toward the purchase of Our Daily Bread Designs' stamps. You have until March 2, 2014 at 9PM EST to make your comments! The winners will be posted on the ODBD Blog on March 3rd, so be sure to check the ODBD Blog to see if you are a winner!
So on to the projects I have for you including one featuring a new background die, Daisy Chain...
I used gold for the card base with a layer of white and black. I topped those with the new Daisy Chain Background die cut. I stamped the sentiment on white and framed it with the honey jar and wand stamped by masking the two together. Each were colored with Copics and then fussy cut. I added a bit of dimensional glaze to the jar for added depth. The bee (found on the Zinnia set) was die cut with the coordinating Zinnia and Leaves Die. A little dab of glitter glue makes my little bee shine!
And the products you see here...
And my second project, a gate fold card featuring an image from Zinnia and sentiment from Bee Happy on the outside (along with beautiful papers from ODBD's Blooming Garden Papers Collection...)
The beautiful papers on this card are also from ODBD. The outside has a few layers of die cut goodness including the new
Zinnia and Leaves Die for the sentiment matting and bee die plus a few oldies, like the Circle Ornaments Die (sentiment panel) and Fancy Foliage Die. The base for this card is black card stock with kraft matting under all of the ODBD papers. And I added glitter glue to this little bee's wings too! :-)
So here's a peek at the other items I used...
Don't forget to stop by and see what the other "Sticks" have to share! They always have the most amazing projects to share! And most importantly they all have such a heart for the Lord! Take a few moments to share the love! Thanks for blessing me by stopping by and offering your encouragement!

Nicely done. I especially like the black paper behind the daisy chain background. Add the pop of yellow and it's so eye catching.
