~ Wishing You ~

I am a sucker for a wedding.  I am probably the sappiest (is that a word?) person you will ever meet.  Just a few hours prior to writing this post, I finished up watching another Hallmark June wedding movie...  I would get married every week.  To the same wonderful guy of course...  but I'm pretty sure he would kill me!  lol...  I love the preparation, the festivities, the decor...  And I am especially LOVING the rustic/country decor that has taken over this part of the country.  My Pinterest feed has been taken over lately by wedding cakes...  and not just the traditional white frosting with basket weave but creative masterpieces designed to look like anything other than a cake.  I keep seeing cakes designed to look like birch trees and so I had to try to create my own version using Our Daily Bread Designs' Long Lasting Love.

Silver and White

Today, I have a couple of cute projects to share using a few items from Our Daily Bread Designs' January release.  First up is a simple bookmark  perfect for gift giving and oh so simple to make.

I started with white card stock and stamped the image with silver gray ink before die cutting.  I used ODBD's Find Refuge stamp.  (It is actually in the Bible Journaling collection but is oh, so perfect for this use as well!)  And the bookmark is easy peazy with ODBD's Bookmark Dies.

And this little beauty...  perfect for wedding favors, anniversary party treats...  you name it!

A bit of white card stock and ODBD's Bountiful Basket Die create the perfect treat basket.  I added a few silver brads to join the handles and some lovely blossoms and sprigs created with ODBD's Bitty Blossoms Die and Lovely Leaves Die.  Silver poster board gives a bit of added embossing along with the lovely tiny silver seed beads.  These would be perfect for customized wedding treats...  with mints...  candy...  whatever you want!

Here are the items you see...

  

Thanks for stopping by!  Don't forget to come back tomorrow as I share a couple of projects using the new February release from Our Daily Bread Designs.

Blessings!
