~ Lots of Love ~

Taking a few moments to work on an old Mojo Monday sketch...  Last week was spent traveling and I just didn't get around to as much crafting as I would like.  I hope to fix that this week...  lol...  

So here is my interpretation of last week's Mojo sketch using Our Daily Bread Designs' 

Sending My Love stamp/die duo...

I started with a black card stock base measuring 4.25 x 5.5 inches.  I added a slightly smaller white mat and a bit of floral DP.  I chose to used ODBD's Doily Die to create my sentiment panel.  I used the new stamp/die due Sending My Love.  A bit of white card stock and the die element create the word Sending for the top...

Here are the items you see today...

As I mentioned earlier, I hope to get back to crafting more this week.  Join me Wednesday for a new Word Art Wednesday Challenge along with a few other projects this week.  Have a wonderful Monday!

Blessings...

CTD395 ~ Sending My Prayers ~

I really do enjoy a good challenge.  Give me a color palette, sketch or idea and I am good to go!  This project is for the weekly Color Throwdown.  You can see the color palette a bit later in the post along with the other challenges I am playing along with today.  I had so much fun creating this card that I just have to jump right in!

I started with a 4.25 inch by 11 inch base (Stampin' Up Crumb Cake) scored and folded at 5.5 inches.  I trimmed up a bit of soft cream colored CS to make a slightly smaller mat.  I pulled out Our Daily Bread Designs' Majestic Medallion Die for the base and lattice layer (also created with SU Crumb Cake).  I die cut some foliage using ODBD's Fancy Foliage Die out of a soft sage card stock, cut and adhered to create my "spray."  I used ODBD's Pretty Posies Die, cream card stock, water mister and shaping tool to create my posies before adding a few pearls in each center and adding to my spray.  I stamped my sentiment on cream CS (Sending My Love Stamp/Die Duo) with coordinating Crumb Cake Ink.  I wrapped the sentiment panel lightly around a pencil until I got the desired shape and adhered it near the bottom of my flowers.  I added sentiment panel (also in soft cream card stock) to finish it off.  

So here is the color palette and LINK...

Our Daily Bread Designs' June Release and Blog Hop

Good morning and welcome to Our Daily Bread Designs' June release and Blog Hop!  We have so many items to share today, including items perfect for creating masculine cards, birthday projects and everyday occasions!  

Don't forget to check the end of today's post for details on how you can hop along and enter for a chance to win!  

But first, I have a fun card featuring the new Armor of God stamp set to share...

I started with a black card stock base measuring 4.25 inches wide by 11 inches long, scoring and folding at 5.5 inches.  I cut an ever so slightly smaller red designer paper panel using ODBD's Old Glory Paper Pad.  I created the metallic mat using the Majestic Medallion Die with silver poster board.  I distressed the embossed panel with Metallic Rub-ons in Pewter and Gunmetal.  I stamped the image twice on Copic compatible paper (Neenah Solar Crest) and colored my image (from ODBD's new Armor of God set), fussy cutting the sword on the second image.  

Copic Colors - C1, C3 & C5 (armor)

R24, R27 & R29 (cross)

I used the Pierced Rectangles Die to cut out one of my armor images and cut a slightly smaller red mat out of red DP from the Old Glory Paper Pad.  I stamped my sentiment with Real Red ink on white card stock, die cutting the sentiment with the Pierced Ovals Die.  I used the Ovals Die and black card stock to create the sentiment base.  After placing my sentiment panel where desired, I added my fussy cut sword with glue to give it a dimensional look.

So here is the new stamp set you see used today...

And for my second card, I chose the Sending My Love set, Birthday Bash Paper Collection, Birthday Brights Paper Pad AND Balloons & Streamers Die...

I started with a white card stock base and added a slightly smaller yellow mat (ODBD's Birthday Brights Paper Pad) and stacking a die cut lime green paper also in the same DP set.  I chose a lovely DP from the new Birthday Bash Paper Collection  die cutting it and the lime mat with ODBD's Pierced Rectangles Die.  ODBD's new Sending My Love  set includes the word Sending die (cut here in yellow) and a host of stamps to add just the perfect sentiment.  I added mine with black ink to a white sentiment panel (ODBD's Pierced Ovals).  The new Balloons & Streamers Die allowed me to create my own plethora of perfectly matched balloons!
