Happy Easter!

Good morning!  Happy Easter!  Today I would like to share a slightly different card...  not a traditional Easter card...  I love this sentiment from Our Daily Bread Designs' Superstar stamp set.  

We are created in His image.   Imagine if he loves his creation (in this case the stars) enough to name each one...  I can only imagine how much he loves us!  He suffered, bled and died for our sins!  But it didn't end there.  He arose from the grave 3 days later...  He defeated death once and for all so we can spend eternity with Him, if we accept Him as a personal Lord and Savior!  

Happy Easter!

Marching into Spring with Our Daily Bread Designs

Good morning and welcome to Our Daily Bread Designs' March release and blog hop!  Can you hear the birds singing?  I have even spotted a robin in my backyard.  Spring must be right around the corner, right?  But even if Old Man Winter isn't quite finished with us...  we can hole up in our craft rooms and make some beautiful cards, right? 

 

Today, we have new stamp sets and coordinating dies to share.  Plus, if you check the end of today's post, I will share how you could put your name into the hat for a prize.  So let's get started...

 

Here is my first card featuring the new Keys to Happiness

stamp set and coordinating Keys Die...

 

 

I started with a white card stock base and added a die cut mat using ODBD's Flourished Star Pattern Die and a soft floral print using the Double Stitched Rectangles Die.  I used smaller dies from this set to create my sentiment panel and plaid frame.  I used the Beautiful Borders Die to create my lace border and a bit of seam binding to color the seam.  Gold poster board helped make the keys from Keys Die set an easy proposition.  I stamped the sentiment with a rich cocoa ink slightly off center...  since the rectangular die would be peeking out.... 

 

Don't you just love those papers?  Those are from last month's release...

Easter Card Paper Collection and Pastel Paper Pack.  So here are the new items you see used on this project... 

 

 

My first card was a bit shabby...  so this card is a bit more clean and linear... 

 

 

For this project, I chose to work with Kraft, Navy blue and a bit of soft blue and white...  a nice color combo for spring...

 

I used the new Superstar stamp set for my sentiment and framed with ODBD's Splendorous Stars Die.  I used the NEW Double Stitched Stars Die with navy card stock to create my mat.  My faux photo frame is compliments of nesting two dies from the NEW Double Stitched Squares Die.  A few old favorites like the Leafy Edged Borders Die and Pennants Die help add interest.  And check out those itty bitty navy stars stamped right on the paper....  SO CUTE!

 

 

 

For this project I chose a DP from the Blooming Garden Paper Collection and Pastel Paper Collection.  I blended those with my old favorite... Leafy Edged Borders Die.  I just love pulling different collections together like that.
