Believe in Love

Posted on July 20, 2011 9:46 PM by Julie 1 Comment

I made this for Wednesday’s sketch challenge (SC342) and Tuesday’s color challenge (CC332). All images are Our Daily Bread designs.

I stamped the butterfly branch and sweet william flowers w/ the choc ink onto the lt blue c/s. The butterfly image was cut w/ a label 8 using the out of the box Nestie technique. Two of the flowers were die cut w/ the blossom die and I used the rest for my lg bg.

For the bottom strip, I used a strip of chocolate c/s punched w/ a double border punch. I hand cut the little sentiment banners. The finished card measures 5.5 x 4.25.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:

Stamps: ODBD – Sweet William, Faith

Paper: lt blue, chocolate, dp (SEI – Sunny Day collection)

Ink: Ancient Page chocolate

Accessories: Tombow markers, EK Success dbl border punch, Spellbinders labels 8 & blossom 3, rhinestone brad

ODBD July Release Blog Hop!

Welcome to the ODBD July 1 release blog hop! If you arrived here from Sabrina Jackson’s blog, you are in the right place! If not, you might want to start at the ODBD Blog where you will see the entire list with links just in case any are broken along the way!

These new Sweet William images are just wonderful! They were made to coordinate with the Spellbinders Blossom 3. I stamped all the sizes on gold and purple tissue papers and also on some wide gold tulle ribbon and then die cut them. After stacking them, I put a gold brad through the center and wrinkled and distressed them within an inch of their lives, lol. I added another piece of the tulle behind the flower then had to get creative with the gold embossed sentiment. This is one BIG flower and I didn’t have much room left on my 5.5 x 4.25 card. I used a border punch across the bottom of the gold layer and backed the flower with a gold embossed fancy label.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Colorful Crochet

Posted on June 21, 2011 7:04 PM by Julie 4 Comments

Am I late? I hope I can still get in to the Tea Party (MMTPT151), but I bet I’ll have to sneak in the back way. See my card has corners and it’s supposed to be round. I tried, rahly I did (said in my best Katherine Hepburn voice-which is hard for a southern girl, dontcha know?)

I started out round…you can see by the center layers. But this card just wanted to be square. Who am I to argue? So I’ll just be hangin’ out by the back door and hopefully I won’t be alone.

All images are Our Daily Bread designs. I stamped the crochet circle image 3 times, colored two and cut them out in layers. One water colored flower only. Two was the the inside circle, cut w/ a Spellbinders circle. Third was the whole image cut w/ an ODBD matching crochet circle die.

For the big circle and square bg, I used water colors to make the bg and then stamped the crochet bg on top. I stamped and cut (w/ the matching ODBD border die) 4 strips of the crochet border to make the frame. As I was putting it together, I got to looking at the negative strips and decided to use them as well. So I added a little color to them and attached them offset behind the crochet borders. The sentiment is also on one of the negative strips. The finished card measures 5″ square.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
