Good morning and welcome to the February release at Our Daily Bread Designs!  We offered a special sneak peek a few weeks ago and a chance to buy some of the items bundled.  So if you didn't have a chance to then...  take a moment and stroll through the items the Design Team as for you!  I opted to use a few items from this release including the Glorious Gable Box DieMini Label DieHugs & Kisses stamp set, Layering Hearts DieTulip Heart Die and Let Love Grow stamp set.

And this month, three randomly selected winners will each receive a $25 Gift Code to the ODBD Website  just for commenting on the Design Team cards!  You have until February 2, 2017 at 9:00 p.m. EST to leave your comments on the Designers Blogs for a chance to win!  The Winners will be posted on the ODBD Blog on February 3rd, so be sure to check back there to see if you won!

So let's begin with a fun treat box that I whipped up for St. Patrick's Day...


I started with green card stock and the new Glorious Gable Box Die.  I stamped my sentiment (Hugs & Kisses) on white card stock and used the new Mini Label Die set to create the sentiment panel and frame.  I added a tiny golden "shamrock" using an old favorite, Bitty Blossoms Die.

And the new items you see...




along with an old favorite...




I started with a 4.5 x 5.5 red card stock base adding a bit of white and red card stock, DP from the Shabby Rose Collection and the Pierced Rectangles Die to create three layers.  I then used the Glorious Gable Box Die (top panel of box) layered end to end to create the filigree panel on my white CS layer.  I pulled out my Leafy Edged Borders Die to create the scalloped edge and then stamped the sentiment (Let Love Grow) with Versamark.  A bit of white embossing powder and my trusty heat gun finished it off.  After cooling, I added three flat backed pearls.  I finished the card with a white heart (Tulip Heart Die) and red card stock backing (Layering Hearts Die.)  A bit of dimensional foam makes it pop!

So here are the new items you see...





and a few old favorites...



 
So now I will send you on your way to check out all of the lovely projects featuring this new release.  Don't forget to leave some love as you hop along for your chance to win!  And if you get lost along the way click HERE to get your bearings.

I love your card I tend to be a plain and simple person not a lot of decorating but yet a stunning card. I love the box I make homemade peanut brittle at Christmas and could see green boxes decorated as a Christmas Gift
