Our Daily Bread Designs' March Release

Welcome to another fun and fabulous release day at  Our Daily Bread Designs.  It is always a pleasure to share the new products available each month.  And every month, I find myself in awe of all of the new items I am blessed to share!  Over the last few weeks I have given you a few sneak peeks at a couple of new dies.  And today, I have a new paper collection to share ALONG with new stamps!  It's like Christmas in my craft room!  

The best part is that you can play along on our blog hop today for a chance to win.  Three randomly selected winners will each receive a $25 gift certificate for the ODBD store.  The GC can be used toward the purchase of ODBD Stamps found in the "stamps column" of the website just for commenting on the Design Team cards!  You must hurry, though.  You have until March 2, 2015 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 March 3rd.  So be sure to check back there to see if you won!

So let's take a peek at a few of the new items you can put on your wish list this month!  My first card features the new Easter sets.  First up...  Happy Resurrection Day...

ODBDSLC123 ~ Stamp Your Own Background

It is time for another Our Daily Bread Designs' Shining the Light Challenge... 

This challenge is all about backgrounds! 

Specifically, we want to see you stamp your own!   

To make the challenge even more fun, we will be giving out a prize, a $15 gift certificate to be used toward stamps at the Our Daily Bread Designs store!! If you are not using ODBD stamps, please do not enter more than once. Additional entries without using ODBD stamps will not be commented on nor will they qualify for prizes.

While it is not required to use Our Daily Bread Designs images and sentiments on your creations, we would love to see them if you have them! As a way of recognizing those who do use Our Daily Bread Designs stamps, we will again be choosing 1 to 2 creations to spotlight for our Shining the Light Award. In order to qualify for this award, however, you must use Our Daily Bread stamps and have your submission added to Mr. Linky by Sunday, September 23rd at 8 p.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword ODBDSLC123. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to our challenge.

And my creation for the week...

I stamped three separate images a butterfly, bee and dragonfly on a white background.  Some of the images were stamped initially and then restamped giving a noticeably lighter image the second time around.  I matted this layer with gray card stock and then added a sentiment panel highlighted with a lovely 2 step butterfly!  A few jet beads create the little guy's body.  A little bit more CAS than usual but oh so fun!  Thanks for stopping in!

Make sure to stop by and visit my sister sticks! They have some wonderful creations to share! And don't forget to leave them some love!
