ODBD For the Love of Good Stewards Hop !



For the Love of  Good 
Stewards Hop 


Welcome to Our Daily Bread Design's Alumni Team's bi-monthly For the Love Blog Hop.  This week the Alumni team along with some of the ODBD designers are featuring a hop For the Love of ODBD Good Steward sets! Check out each link and leave a comment. If you get lost along the way, check the ODBD blog for full list of links.  One of the post is a hop hot spot and a name will be drawn from that list of comments to win a $15 ODBD store gift certificate.  So, all you have to do is hop along and see all the creations and leave a little love!  You have until Wednesday, July 4th at 6 pm.   Enjoy all the awesome inspiration using For the Love of ODBD Good Steward sets!


I am first on the hop so if you got here from ODBD Blog you are in the right spot! 


For my card I am using ODBD Never Give Up and Grunge Cross stamp sets.   I also used ODBD Custom Grunge Cross die.   I combined some MME designer papers  with some cork to make a fun textured background to go with the Grunge Cross.    I also found a cool Basic Grey brad in my stash of embellies that looks like the word GOD is spelled across the front so I thought it worked perfectly for the cross center. I added a few foam circles and popped the cross up a bit.

The sentiment is a quote from the Never Give Up set.  I love the quotes in this set and the scripture is one of my favorites.  All further emphasize to keep on keeping on.   I finished my card with a seam binding bow. 

As always thanks so much for stopping by!   Next on the hop is Connie's Blog.
