Today I’m sharing a couple of cards I made for Our Daily Bread designs’ 10th Anniversary celebration. I was one of the past ODBD designers they asked to participate in the reunion!
My first card uses the God Quotes 2 set along w/ one of my faves, Beauty. The quote was stamped & die cut w/ the largest of the Tag Trio dies. I used part of the Fancy Circles dies to make a little tag topper & the matching Lily die to cut out the part of the lily that tag would have covered up. The lily was stamped on a larger white panel & I did a little out of the box on the right side when I die cut it w/ the pierced rectangles. The largest panel was die cut w/ the largest pierced rectangle & I die cut the center out of it using one of the Lavish Layers dies. I liked the pattern it left by using the negative space w/ a rose colored layer behind it.
Here’s the inside & the Copics I used.

My second card uses the same God Quotes 2 & Fancy Circles dies along w/ the beautiful Romantic Roses paper. I thought it really made it stand out by using basically a 2 color scheme & gave it an almost iced cake look w/ all the fancy layers.

It’s my turn to host the Featured Stamper Challenge on Splitcoast (FS563) so a big Congrats to Helen, the newest Featured Stamper! She has a really sweet gallery & I chose THIS to case. I really liked the color combo & mixed media look of the background so I kept those, but I used different images, a different layout & made mine a Christmas card.
To make my card, The strip in the middle is actually part of a large tag I made w/ Distress inks & a little platinum Brilliance for some sparkle. The aqua & lime sparkle layers were die cut w/ curved dies & the largest lime sparkle was embossed on both ends. Though the small manger image was meant to be a postage frame, I wanted to use it on my card so I added the large star from the wisemen image in the center of the postage frame. For the rest of the wisemen, I stamped them on the aqua layer & added some white Prismacolor pencil highlights.
Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used on small nativity image.
Supplies:
Stamps: DRS Designs – Jesus Heart Postage, Three Wisemen, (inside: Simplify Christmas Greeting) |
Paper: X-Press It white, lime sparkle, aqua, manilla tag |
Ink: Memento tuxedo black, Versafine onyx, Distress inks in twisted citron, tumbled glass, peacock feathers, evergreen bough, Brilliance platinum planet |
Accessories: Copic markers, Spellbinders rectangles, curved borders dies, Sizzix embossing folder (Snowflakes & Flourish set), white Prismacolor pencil |
And since it’s almost Thanksgiving, I also cased THIS card of Helen’s. I kept most of the layout, but used different colors, different images & turned mine horizontal.
This card was pretty quick & easy. I had a Wrinkle Free Distress background I made a while back that I stamped the leaves onto & fussy cut. The white rectangle with cut out hole was leftover from another project so I added the brown & gold layers then the greeting on a little word window tag.
Supplies:
Stamps: DRS Designs – Open Leaf, Fall Leaf w/ Acorn, Happy Thanksgiving |
Paper: Staples 110# white, watercolor, brown textured, harvest gold |
Ink: Versafine vintage sepia, Distress inks rusty hinge, mustard seed, spiced marmalade |
Accessories: Spellbinder A2 matting basics A & B dies, Quickutz nesting ovals, sequins |
Today’s Clean & Simple Challenge (CAS425) is He is Risen…celebrate the Resurrection or raise something up, like using embossing. I did both on my cards.
For this Easter card, I paired this beautiful new Celebrate Easter greeting w/ the Lily Cross & the Stained Glass Oval. I know the rectangle version would have worked better, but the oval is the one I have. I kept the colors neutral & the layout clean & simple to let the images shine. First I put the cross into my Misti & stamped it w/ desert sand. After lightly coloring it w/ Copics, I overstamped it w/ metallic gold ink then heat embossed it w/ gold powder. I did the same to the frame, coloring in just a few areas.
In real life, the gold embossing is really pretty. You can see it a bit in the pic below.
Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
My second Easter card was really quick..the triple crosses were stamped on a die cut circle w/ the lilac ink, then the scripture quote was stamped on top w/ the grape ink. It was added to purple die cut & the white bg was embossed w/ a sun ray folder.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
