A Look Back at ODBD's June Release

Time is moving very fast these days!  It's hard to believe July 4th is just around the corner.  In this part of the country, school shopping begins any day!  It seems like just yesterday that the Class of 2014 graduated!  My, how time marches on! 
 
Today I am taking a look back at Our Daily Bread Designs' June Release.  Here is the card I created using the Cherry Blossom stamp set, Asters and Leaves die plus new paper from the Blushing Rose Collection. For more inspiration using the June Release be sure to stop by the ODBD Blog.
 
Here's today's project...
 
 
I started with a pink 5.5 by 4.25 card base.  I added a slightly smaller gold CS panel.  I used ODBD's Vintage Flourish Pattern die and Blushing Rose Paper to create a "window."  I stamped my sentiment (Cherry Blossom) on coordinating ledger paper from the Blushing Rose Paper collection and trimmed it to fit under the coordinating frame.  I added the frame with dimensional foam.  I used the Fancy Foliage die and gold CS to create my vines and the new Asters and Leaves to make my pink blossoms.  I added some glossy glue to the centers before adding gold microbeads to each flower.  A pink dyed seam binding bow and strategically placed gold flourish finish it off!  And if you look REALLY close...  you will see where I used a gold marker to gently distress the inside edges of my "frame."  So what do you think???
 
The above project features the following new ODBD products...

Oh, my, Lori, this is beautiful! I love the vintage, shabby chic look, and your use of the ODBD papers is fabulous! But the flowers with the foliage and ribbon with gems really finish this off beautifully and showcase the beautiful verse from Psalm! It's placed perfectly on the paper too with the rose on the left! Hugs, sweet friend!
