    Wonderful color combo challenge today on Splitcoast (CC365)! My card is almost entirely the blushing bride shade of pink w/ just a hint of the wasabi green (plus a little gold for the cross).

    All images are DRS Designs. I stamped the lily cross image and added a little color. I did this really quickly since I knew I wanted a vellum overlay and some of the detail would be lost anyway. The stained glass oval was stamped on vellum w/ the gray ink and I sprinkled on the ep immediately (since it’s dye ink) and heat embossed it. I sponged on a little of the pink ink onto the back side of the vellum and added just a little darker pink w/ a marker. I embossed the greeting on the marbled pink c/s using the same ep and the black ink. The window was die cut out of the pink. Then I used an embossing folder so it wouldn’t look too plain. The vellum, then the image were attached underneath and then onto a 5.50 x 4.25 card.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    I’m excited to share a card I made with the brand new Our Daily Bread designs release, the customer favorites Scripture Series 2!  As part of our third year anniversary celebration, customers submitted their favorite Scriptures that they would like to use on a card, and after much thought the winners were chosen and made into this special edition set.

    For my card, I gold embossed the scripture and frame on teal card stock and die cut it using a Spellbinders square die.  I used a Cheery Lynn Italian Flourish die on the gold card stock and this was a breeze to cut using my Grand Calibur. The large teal layer was embossed with a Cuttlebug folder and I used a gold gel pen to trace the lines. The gold cross ribbon was white but I used a marker to dye it to match my card.

    To see the full release, as well as samples made by the winners of the contest whose verses were chosen, and to hear their stories of why they chose the verse they did, please visit the Our Daily Bread designs Blog!  Also, the Design Team has created samples for your inspiration with these Scriptures.  Here is the list of participants.  There are hidden prizes along the way, so be sure to leave a comment on each one for a chance to win!

    I have two cards to share today. It didn’t start out to be two but it evolved that way and parts of one are used on the other. This one started as a watercolor background on lightweight watercolor paper. After it dried, I die cut the image out of the background then used a slightly larger die to make the background opening larger. On the 5×5 ivory card front, I stamped the Vintage Border across the bottom, added a little color to the centers and used the Vintage Border Die across the bottom half only to cut the card edge. I made a few more of the borders on another piece of c/s, die cut them and added them under the frame and around the top of the sentiment tag.

    A lot of times, when I have an image like this fabulous Porch image (designed by Dina Kowal) all inked up, I’ll stamp it more than once. Just in case something happens to the first or I want to layer for depth or to have one for later. This was the extra one and while it was sitting there, I thought I’d add a little color.  Then the narrow frame piece from the first card was added to see how it looked. For the die cut Vintage Border peeking out around from around the frame, I double stamped it; once w/ the Kpad and again w/ the black ink.  I scored a border on the front of the 5×5 ivory card.

    From here hop on over to Connie McCotter’s blog,  I know she’ll have something fabulous to share!
