~ Quilting Friends are the Best! ~

Good morning!  The weather is a bit dreary here.  I keep reminding myself that April showers bring May flowers.  I can't wait to see some of my late spring favorites come into bloom...  the iris, peonies and cabbage rose...  And speaking of my Grandmother's cabbage rose...  here is a fun card I made in almost the exact shade of rich pink!

 

 

I started with a white card stock base cut at 4.25 inches x 11 inches, scoring and folding at 5.5 inches

I added a rich raspberry mat featuring Boho Bolds Paper Pad

ODBD ~ Thanks Pennant ~

Good morning!  I hope you are having a wonderful day!  The weather looks to be perfect...  that wonderful blend of cooler evenings giving way to warm late summer days...   I hope to spend some time outdoors after church this morning!  

Today's card features a few items from Our Daily Bread Designs' August release including the special mid month Pennant Swag Solid Alphabet  and coordinating Swag Pennant Die. 

I started with a rich purple card stock base adding a raspberry mat.  I pulled a fun DP from this month's Beautiful Boho Paper Collection and an overlay created with the new Boho Background Die.  I stamped the image with a rich purple ink on ecru card stock (Boho Love) and used the coordinating Ornate Hearts Die to cut and emboss.  I stamped the thanks sentiment (Pennant Swag Solid Alphabet) after positioning the stamps with the coordinating die (Pennant Swag Die.) 

I then used the die to cut...  so easy!  I cut a large banner to nestle behind the heart die.  

So here are some of the items you see...

A Look Back at ODBD's August Release

Today we are taking a look back at Our Daily Bread Designs' August Release.  Here is the card I created using Boho Blessings, Beautiful Boho Paper Collection and the new die, Stitched Ovals.  For more inspiration using the August Release be sure to visit the ODBD Blog.

I started with a black card stock base measuring 5.5 x 4.25 inches adding a slightly smaller rich orange mat.  I chose a couple of designs from the new Beautiful Boho Paper Collection and layered them up.  I stamped the image (Boho Blessings) on Copic compatible paper with a soft grey die fast ink and then colored the image with Copics.  I stamped the image again with a deep Versafine black ink using a positioning tool to stamp exactly over the original gray.  I then used the coordinating Fancy Fritillary Die to cut it out.  I stamped the sentiment with black ink on white paper carefully matting it.  I used a rich raspberry CS along with the new Stitched Ovals Die for a slightly "hidden" element behing the sentiment panel.  I also pulled out an old favorite...  Pennants Die, to add a sweet banner under the butterfly.  So here are some of the items  you see today!

 

 Thanks so much for stopping by and don't forget to visit my design team sisters to see what that have for you as well!

Blessings...

Welcome to Release Day at Our Daily Bread Designs!

  I can't believe that August is here!  Soon the kiddos will be back in school.  This summer has positively flown by!  My Mom always told me time speeds up the older you get!  Guess our parents really do know best, right?  

So a new month means a new release at Our Daily Bread Designs!  And you have a chance to hop along and play for a prize!  Complete details including what you could win are at the end of today's post.  First, I would like to share a couple of cards featuring some of the new products.

Card #1

with 

Boho Faith, Faith, Hope & Love Die and the fabulous 

Boho Background Die

 I started with a soft aqua card stock base (5.5 x 4.25) and added a white CS mat.  I used the Boho Background Die to create the gold mat base and the teal lattice design.  I stamped my image from the Boho Faith (using an ombre ink) on white card stock and the complementary Vintage Labels Die.  I cut three word dies from the new Faith, Hope & Love Die and nested them on top of the image.  A bit of greenery (Fancy Foliage Die) with a fun blossom (Aster and Leaves Die) finish it off. 

Now on to card #2
using Boho Love stamp set and the new Beautiful Boho Paper Collection

This time, I started with a rich orange CS base and added a bit of mulberry mat.  I used a bright paisley and link design from the new paper set, carefully distressing the edges before adding.  I stamped the image with a couple of ombre ink sets, an orange and pink set, before using the coordinating Ornate Hearts die to finish it off.  I stamped the sentiment on ecru card stock with the new Boho Love  set and used the older Mini Tags Die set to cut it out.  I attached it to a bit of custom dyed seam binding and tucked an ecru lace die cut Beautiful Borders Die behind it.  

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