TLC587 ~ Collar Fold Card Challenge ~

Today's card is for a fun technique challenge at Splitcoaststampers.  The challenge...  to use some sort of collar fold on your card.  I opted to mimic a lovely blouse I can remember my great aunt wearing...  She always loved colorful calico prints with a sharply creased collar and a jaunty bow.  I remember her for her love of God and how she used that to encourage me.  When I would visit she would offer me a big cup of hot chocolate.  To this day a steaming mug reminds me of her and her calico frocks.  She was truly an example of letting your cup overflow and blessing others...

My sentiment and image (colored with Copics) may be found in this Our Daily Bread Designs' set, 

My Soul Thirsts

Doesn't this die create the cutest bow?  There are two other sizes as well 

available...

Small Bow Dies 

Matting for our sentiment... Stitched Ovals Die

Welcome!  Everywhere I look gold seems to be the going trend in home decor, Christmas decorations AND card making!  And being a person who would never buck a trend...  I pulled out some gold poster board, DP from Our Daily Bread Designs and went to work!

I started with an ecru card stock base, gold matting and slightly smaller DP from ODBD's Christmas Card Collection 2015...

I stamped the sentiment (The Mighty God) with gold ink on ecru paper and cute it down to size.  I nestled an ecru doily die cut (Doily Die) under the sentiment panel and added a couple of gold die cuts from the NEW Lovely Leaves Die set.  And that fun ribbon...  created using the new Small Bow Die set.   

Here is the new stamp set....

 Paper Collection....

NEW dies...

 

and an old favorite!

 

Thanks so much for spending just a bit of your Monday morning with me!  I hope you have a wonderfully blessed day!

Welcome to Our Daily Bread Designs' November Release

Good morning and welcome to the first day of November!  A new month means a new release at Our Daily Bread Designs.  And a new release means you have the chance to hop along, comment and win!  For more details on this month's hop check the bottom of today's post!  

Here's my first card featuring The Mighty God, Lovely Leaves Die, Pinecones Die and Small Bows Die...

I started with a rich burgundy card stock base and layered on a soft gold card stock.  I added two coordinating designer papers from ODBD's Christmas Collection 2015.  I layered the burgundy print over the ornament design by using dies from the Leafy Edged Borders Die to cut and add a gold CS lace layer.  I stamped the sentiment (from the NEW The Mighty God) with burgundy ink on a sheet of coordinating DP and placed it slightly askew over both panels.  I added a greenery spray with branches created using the NEW Lovely Leaves Die.  A bit of white and brown card stock create the pinecone and snowy layer using the NEW Pinecones Die.  A bit of burgundy CS and the NEW Small Bows Die set add an easy to make paper bow.   

So here are the new items you see today...

and some old favorites...

 

Now here is a blue and white creation featuring the new Flourished Merry Christmas, Snowflake Border Background, Lovely Leaves Die, Medium Bows Dies...

I started with a blue card stock base and white matting.  I stamped the border using the NEW Snowflake Border Background  with blue ink and distressed the edges before adhering with dimensional foam.  I used the same ink to stamp the sentiment (the NEW Flourished Merry Christmas) on white card stock and used Vintage Labels Die to frame the sentiment panel and as a template to cut blue mulberry paper to tuck underneath.  The NEW Lovely Leaves Die lends itself well for creating white foliage and Kraft twigs.  The NEW Medium Bows Die creates a fun paper bow to adorn the corner.  And just for fun...  a couple of glittered jingle bells...

SO here are the new items you see...

 

and another old favorite...

So here are the details for today's blog hop...
