    Pink Wreath 01941

    Welcome to the Our Daily Bread designs September Release! Wow, do we some fabulous images for you!

    On my wreath card, I stamped the Holly Wreath with the bamboo ink and shaded the background holly w/ a lt green Copic marker.For the top images, I used a dk green Micron pen to outline them and make them stand out more. The image and the designer paper circle behind it were die cut with circle dies and added on top of an embossed white layer. On the larger designer paper layer, I added some scored lines at the bottom. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

    Stamps: Our Daily Bread designs – Holly Wreath, Jingle Bells
    Paper: white, dp (Making Memories)
    Ink: Memento bamboo leaves, rose bud
    Accessories:  Copic markers, Spellbinders circle & pennant dies, Candi button, corner rounder, Sizzix circle frame embossing folder, stickles

    Pink Ornament 01953

    For my pink ornament card, after cutting a large background piece out of two sided pink designer paper, I die cut the fancy ornament out of the reverse side. I stamped the greeting on white and die cut the same ornament shape around it, then trimmed away all but the center greeting section and attached it on top of the pink version. The corners (from the same set) were also die cut out of the dark pink and since some of the paper had white streaked areas, I used a white Permapaque marker to add them to all of the corners.

     

    The pinecone was stamped on white and fussy cut to add on top of the ornament. Another solid ornament die was used to die cut the white backing ornament. I added some white dots on the dk pink background to help tie it all together. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.

    On my Christmas card, I die cut the beautiful bird in white and traced around the die on red and fussy cut it to attach behind the white die cut version. The sentiment was stamped on white and I used a bracket border die to cut the bottom. I used another die from the border set to cut the red layer beneath it. A red snowflake and some red and clear crystals were added to finish my 5.50 x 4.25 card.

    For my non-Christmas card, I went with a sympathy card. After stamping the sentiment on the lower section, I die cut the dove above it. I used some blue-green Copics to color the die cut bird then used  the ink spots image to add the dots on the bird and also on the light blue layer. The stamped die cut bird was then added back into the empty die cut space. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

    A big Congrats to Gabby (Gabalot), the Featured Stamper on Splitcoast (FS342)! She has a big, beautiful gallery and I chose THIS card to case. I liked the borders on top and bottom so I kept the layout and the red and white (& added green) colors, but I turned it, used different images and made mine a Christmas card.

    The images are from DRS Designs. After stamping the string of lights across the top, I used a Spellbinders bracket border die to cut the bottom in 3 sections. I attached two stamped plaid sections, one red & one green, together and added the cut off borders on top. The greeting and lamp post were fussy cut and attached to my 5.50 4.25 card.
