Welcome to the Our Daily Bread designs January Release Blog Hop!

If you came here from the fabulous Connie McCotter’s Blog, you are in the right place. If not you might want to start at the Our Daily Bread designs Blog and start from the beginning. If you get lost along the way, simply return there, where the entire hop is listed with links.

For my card, I’m using the new Birthday Blessings set. Isn’t this a wonderful tea cup full of flowers? I colored it w/ markers and added a little iridescent watercolor medium on top for a little sparkle. I used the out of the box Nestie technique to cut it out. The purple background was run through the Grand Calibur with an embossing folder. The ivory/yellow panel was stamped with pigment ink using one of my favorite past releases, Crocheted Background. A little strip of the Crochet Border from Serve the Lord was added under the olive green panel. A matching Crochet circle was stamped and die cut using the matching dies. I used the first part of the sentiment for my little tags and the complete sentiment from the set is on the inside. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

From here, hop to the fantastic Betty Wright’s blog!

Best of 2011
It’s almost Christmas! Only a few more days! Are y’all ready? I still have lots of wrapping and baking to do. Not really sure why I’m always behind, but no matter how well I think I plan, it always comes down to the wire. And there’s always that one gift that goes missing. According to the tracking, it’s been doing a winter vacay in Colorado since Dec 13. How do I get a deal like that, lol?

I made this for today’s Sketch Challenge (SC364) and yesterday’s Color Challenge (CC354) at Splitcoast. Wonderful sketch and it turns out the colors are kinda nice together. Not sure I would have ever come up w/ the combo, but it’s growing on me.

All images are Our Daily Bread designs. With these colors, I figured I would have a tough time trying to make a last minute Christmas card, so I packed that idea in pretty quickly and went w/ a spring card. I inked the clover w/ the lime ink, wiped off the little clover blooms and inked them w/ a wisteria marker. The sentiment was stamped first w/ the rose coral ink then lined up and stamped again w/ the grape ink. I used a coral marker to highlight a few of the words.

I die cut it using the out of the box Nestie technique and added a coral layer and lacy square layer out of dp.

For the circular element on the left, I die cut a piece of sparkly lime dp using a Cheery Lynn die. I used the same die on a piece of wisteria colored dp but did the emboss only. I attached the lime die cut on top and trimmed around the edges. Not really sure how this came about, but I put a coral like piece of c/s under the area I cut out of the lime and attached the die cut back on top, but a little off.

I added a cuttlebug embossed strip across the bottom, w/ a little stickles and attached to a 5.50 x 4.25 card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy Holidays!

Honeycomb Dress

Posted on December 15, 2011 12:16 AM by Julie 3 Comments

How timely for today’s Ways to Use It Challenge (WT353)! We are to pick a favorite and base our card on it. When I was looking thru the FS gallery for Peggy this last Sunday, I came across a couple of her cards Venetian Dress and Easter Dresses. The funny thing is, her Easter Dresses were a case of some Easter Dresses I made! It reminded me how much I liked these little dresses, so this is a case of a case, lol.

I had to hunt, but the dress pattern for this is still available here: Dress Pattern. The images I used here are all from Our Daily Bread designs. After printing and cutting the card into the dress pattern, I stamped the front w/ the honeycomb bg. For the apron, I used vellum and stamped the clover in the lower right corner.

With a stylus, I debossed the vellum for a little depth then used markers on the backside. The belt was die cut and I added a green band underneath. For the bottom of the apron, the sleeves and the collar, I used little pieces I die cut using the Spellbinders labels. The card fits in an A2 (4.25 x 5.50) envelope.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:

Stamps: ODBD – Simple Things, Honeycomb Bg

Paper: white, small strip of grass green, vellum

Ink: Ancient Page coal, Brilliance gamma green
