~ You Hold the Key ~

Welcome!  I'm so very glad you stopped by to visit.  Today I have a card with "heart."  And you will know exactly what I mean when you see it. 

There are lots of delicious layers to see here!  I started with a plain white card stock base and deep red matting.  I chose Our Daily Bread Designs' Heart and Soul Paper Collection for my DP layer.  I used left over scraps (white CS) to create my heart (two layers both from Ornate Hearts Die), leaves (Fancy Foliage Die) and wings (from ODBD's new set, Angel Wings).   The keys can also be found on the Angels Wings die set.  I chose the Keys to Heaven stamp set for my sentiment before pulling out a coordinating red ink to use.  I added all of my layers with dimensional foam and added a soft pink flourish and romantic roses.  I used red thread to tie my faux keys together. 

 

Here are some of the ODBD products you see here today...

 

Thanks so much and hope to see you soon!

Happy 6th Anniversary Our Daily Bread Designs!

Good morning dear friends!  I have a very special celebration to share.  This month, Kelley and Rick Holland, celebrate 6 years of creating beautiful and inspirational stamps at Our Daily Bread Designs.  It is an honor to work for such a wonderful family and I am blessed to have made so many fabulous friends on this journey!  Happy Anniversary to Kelley, Rick and Our Daily Bread Designs!  Here's to many more to come!

 

Now you can't have an anniversary without a party!  So to celebrate we are having a blog hop!  Three winners will be randomly chosen from the comments left on the designers' blogs.  They will receive a $25 Gift Certificate to the ODBD store to be used toward the purchase of ODBD stamps.  ONE LUCKY commenter will be randomly chosen to win the 2014 ANNIVERSARY BUNDLE!!!!!  You have until March 18, 2014 at 9:00PM EDT to leave your comments!  The winners will be posted on the ODBD blog on March 19th.  Be sure to check there to see if you have won! 

 

Each year the team submits a quote, sentiment or scripture that speaks to our heart.  Kelley and crew go to work creating a stamp with the chosen words.  I selected a scripture from the book of Mark that comforts my heart when times are tough...

 

 

I used a couple of layers of pink card stock before adding some lovely designer paper from ODBD's Heart and Soul Collection.  Several layers of white and pink die cuts nestle under the sentiment panel.  A few mulberry roses garnish the side and if you look closely you will see a few pearls scattered around the corners.

 

Scripture Collection 12

 

 

 

For my second project I chose a lovely sentiment chosen by one of my team members from the book of Psalms and included in this lovely collection...

 

 

This time I chose a deep pink card stock to coordinate with designer papers from ODBD's Heart and Soul Collection.  Look closely and you will see the Quatrefoil Pattern Die and another classic image Grow in Grace.  I fussy cut bits of a second stamping of the dogwood image and glued them onto the first die cut.  It gives the illusion of the flower going off the page.

 

Here's a closer look.  See the Flower Soft centers? 

 

 

Here are some of the other products I used along with the Scripture Collection 12 set.

FS368 ~ Love ~

Yes, I realize Valentine's Day is over!  But shouldn't we celebrate romance and LOVE ALL year long?  Isn't it important to make that special someone feel just that...  SPECIAL...  ALL the time?  So today, I'm sharing a card that will be a JUST BECAUSE I ADORE you card!  I want hubs to know I appreciate him each and every day!  This week, I haven't been the easiest to live with.  (A nasty respiratory issue invaded my house and took me captive...)  So here's to all those ordinary days that are truly extraordinary because I share it with hubs! 

 

The card inspired by this week's

SCS Featured Stamper, Dawn...

 

 

 

 

Some of the products...

 

Heart of Joy

 

 

Ornate Hearts Die

 



God's Love

 

Heart and Soul Paper Collection

 

 

I used a few more layers on this design than the original inspiration card.  I inked the hearts up with Memento Rhubarb Stalk and cut them out using the Ornate Hearts Die before adding with dimensional foam.  I lightly colored the word LOVE (stamped with Memento Black Tuxedo) with Copics R81 (aptly named Rose Pink.)  I sure hope he likes it! 

 

Thanks as always for stopping by!  Until next time...  blessings...

~ A Hearty Box ~

Welcome!  Happy Tuesday morning!  I have another box to share today.  This time I created a heart shaped box with an open top.  My plan?  To add a bouquet of artificial flowers peeking out...  Unfortunately, I did not get the photo done before mailing the final product off to Our Daily Bread Designs. 

 

But it you squint your eyes and look really close...  You might be able to imagine what it would look like.  :-)

 

  My intent was to leave the top open and display this little gem on it's side.  What do you think?

 

I also used the new Heart and Soul Paper Collection from ODBD.  I created the base (top bottom) with chipboard and white CS cover layers.  I added a coordinating DP heart die and the final white die cut filigree layer.  A silver and ivory button rests on top.  If you look closely, you can also see the border die I used on the side.

 



 

I could have added ribbon to create a hanger but decided to leave it free standing. 

 

Here are the products I used.
