For now… just be sure to be back on Jan 9 when our first Challenge of the New Year will kick off!

    OK… now on to my card: I used the new ODBD Confirmation set.  All the images were gold embossed and all panels were edged with a gold leafing pen. A little color was added to the image using markers and a blender pen. I used Spellbinders labels 4 to cut out my main panels and a border punch to punch down the sides of the ivory panel. I left the die in place and sponged on a little Brilliance gold ink. The beautiful background paper is from the Juliette collection from SEI.

    From here hop to Lorelie’s blog to see what great inspiration she has for you today!

    Have fun hopping, and Happy New Year from the Our Daily Bread designs Bread Basket!

    Thanks for stopping by!

  • Christmas Card Extravaganza!

    Welcome to our 1st ever Christmas Card Extravaganza  ISC Blog Hop!

    The Architects were challenged to choose a different image from the Joyful Christmas and create a card making it the focal point!

    This is my Victorian Ornament card, featuring the round ornament from the new sheet. Victorian Ornament 3586a2
    The ornament was stamped onto vanilla c/s using the bordeaux ink and again onto dp using black ink then the ribbon part was paper pieced onto the vanilla image. I cut a reverse mask of the ornament and stamped the stars and snowflakes inside using the merlot pigment ink then heat embossed using a red/gold glitter powder. The holly leaves were colored w/ a marker then the oval was cut using a Spellbinder’s die. I cut a larger oval and a narrow rectangle out of the same dp. A vanilla rectangle layer was also cut using a die.

    Victorian Ornament close up3585a2c
    The sentiment was stamped and a tag punch used to cut it out. A narrow layer of the dp was added and then it was attached to the image panels. A larger panel of the tree dp was added. The trees were a little too far apart for my layout, so I cut out a couple of the burgundy trees and attached them close to the pine colored trees.

    I hope you enjoyed this Christmas card and I know you’ll love the beautiful cards the rest of the ISC Architects have created.
