A Look Back at Our Daily Bread Designs' Mid Month Release

Today we are taking a look back at Our Daily Bread Designs' October Mid-Month Release. Here is the card I created using Everlasting Light and Christmas Candles Die. For more inspiration using the October Mid-Month Release be sure to visit the ODBD Blog. So for this card I decided to go with a silver and white color scheme...

I started with a white card stock base and added a silver poster board mat created with ODBD's Flourished Star Pattern Die and slightly smaller white card stock layer. I added a bit of DP from the Winter Paper Collection trimmed with the Leafy Edged Borders Die. I stamped my sentiment (from the ODBD mid-month release, Everlasting Light) on white card stock with silver ink. I then cut and embossed the panel with the Stitched Ovals Die. I took a bit of silver PB and used the new Christmas Candles Die with a bit of dimensional foam to create a bit of depth in the corner. So here are the mid-month items you see...

and some old favorites...

Thanks so much for stopping by. Don't forget to visit my design team sisters to see what they have created with this month's mid-month release. Blessings...

And to make this event even more fun, three randomly selected winners will each receive a $25 gift certificate to the ODBD Store, to be used toward the purchase of ODBD Stamps found in the "ODBD stamps column" of the website just for commenting on the Design Team cards! You have until October 16, 2015 at 9:00 p.m. EDT to leave your comments on the Designers' Blogs for a chance to win! The winners will be posted on the ODBD Blog on October 17th, so be sure to check back there to see if you won!

Now here is my first card featuring Everlasting Light stamp set and the new Merry Mosaics Dies...

I started with a simple white card stock base and added gold poster board cut to fit. I added a slightly smaller DP panel featuring ODBD's new paper collection, Christmas Card Collection 2015. I stamped my sentiment (Everlasting Light) with gold ink on ecru card stock. I framed my sentiment using some old favorites from ODBD including Stitched Ovals Die and Ovals Die (gold poster board base). I used the new Merry Mosaics Die to cut out alternating layers of ecru card stock and DP, overlapping each and adding gold micro beads to each center. A gold vine (Fancy Foliage Die) adds a bit of whimsy.

Here are the new items from today's release...

Here is another project featuring the new Perfect Light stamp set and Christmas Candles Die...

I started with a white card stock base and gold mat. I added a slightly smaller layer of DP, distressed and inked, from the October 1st, Christmas Paper Collection 2015 release. I stamped the sentiment (Perfect Light) on white card stock and after cutting and embossing with the Antique Labels and Borders Die, and lightly inked the edges. I used the new Christmas Candles Dies to create my candles and inked the flames with Dandelion and Tangelo Ink. A bit of Desert Sand adorns the top of each candle. I added twigs, a faux poinsettia and berries all created with this fun die. And tucked in the corner... an old favorite Decorative Corners Die.

So here are the new items you see...
