Welcome to the Our Daily Bread designs August Release! Wow, do we some fabulous images for you! For my cards, I’m using these images and dies.
For my first card, I stamped the pickles in two colors of green ink to make the background. The pickle circle was colored with Copics and die cut with a circle die. The scallop circle behind it was stamped with the Baking Gift Tags (March 2013 release) and die cut with the matching Recipe & Tag dies. The gingham background was stamped w/ the cantaloupe ink on a piece of yellow textured card stock. I die cut a canning jar and stamped a pickle and  the greeting inside, and added some color to the lid and jar. A die cut fancy foliage flourish was added as well as some seam binding I colored with Copics and three little buttons. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 and these are the Copics I used to color the images.
