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.

The canning jars were stamped, reverse masked and pickles and strawberries were stamped inside. I added a flourish from the Fancy Foliage dies along w/ some little leaves and added some green to the lt blue leaves. The sentiment was die cut with a circle die and the scallop circle from the Baking Gift Tag set was stamped and die cut with the matching die.

Today’s Ways to Use It Challenge on Splitcoast (WT440) is Sun Rays! I used a candy cane embossing folder for the diagonal lines and I sponged on a couple of inks to make my “sun rays” background. I stamped the strawberries, colored them with Copics and die cut w/ a rectangle die. I also die cut the ODBD Fancy Flourish vine a couple of times and punched a few flowers to add onto the vine. I added a little stickles to the flower centers. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the Copics I used to color the strawberries.
