   2-  Use two of something
     0-  Use zero of something 
 1- Use one of something
          2- Use two of something else

For my card I am using ODBD Scripture Collection 5.  I combined some monochromatic colors of MME designer papers,stitched the frame and added a Spellbinder's pennant die cut.   For the challenge I used  2- Two embellishments (gems, button), 0- no embossing, 1- die cut, 2- ties( seam binding and memory thread).

It is time for ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge (SNTODBD48)! The assignment is to use Our Daily Bread Design stamps.

We look forward to seeing what you create using ODBD stamps!

For today's card I am using ODBD Blessed Christmas and Ornaments stamp sets.  I used ODBD custom poinsettia die for the focal image.  I colored with copics added some sparkle and topped it off with a muted hue Prima flower to add more dimension and a vintage feel.   I added a sentiment from and used the Quickie glue pen to add some sparkle.  I finished with some pearls dyed to match using a copic marker.  I have been creating many Christmas cards lately that use non-traditional Christmas colors.  When I saw the CRE84FN colors, I  just knew they would make a wonderful Vintage inspired Christmas card.  I am using the colors from CRE84FN42 and Sketchbook 37.

ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge (SNTODBD47)!



It is time for ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge (SNTODBD47)! The assignment is to use Our Daily Bread Design stamps. The challenge this rotation is all about using your favorite scripture on a card.  I realize favorites change from time to time so the scripture could be your favorite one right now.  Tell us why it is your favorite.     Remember, the more you play the more you increase your chance to win! We look forward to seeing what you create using ODBD stamps!

For my card I am using the newly released Warm Wishes along with  Peace and Joy.     I stamped  the snow scene with adorable snowman with vintage cream ink and embossed in white.   I die cut my image with Spellbinder's Heirloom Ornaments die.  To keep with the vintage theme I stenciled some ranger antique linen along with some vintage photo ink. I added touches of Reflections snow glitter to the image for a subtle contrast to the warm tones.  I also used some Prima Printery paper pad.  Less traditional Christmas colors, but I really love the warm tones and vintage feel.  I thought this snowman further expressed the scripture.  What we "do" or "can do" with the good and perfect things  we receive from God. 

Check out the cards made by this rotation's Guest Designer, Kathy Roney  , and some of the other ODBD Designers!

ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge (SNTODBD45)!



It is time for ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge (SNTODBD45)! The assignment is to use Our Daily Bread Design stamps.  The challenge this rotation is all about color!    Fall Colors that is!  Combine one, two, or more fall colors to your card or projects.  Release your Autumnal hues!       


For my card I am using ODBD's Full of Grace set from the Blessings Collection.  I used Cheery Lynn's Kiwi doily die.   I kept this card pretty simple and just chose one color of fall to focus on.   I love the golds!  I cut the kiwi doily out twice using The Paper Company's cream cardstock and layered.  I ink distressed the edges and rolled them a bit for added texture and dimension.  I think this photo really showcases all the intricate cuttings, piercings, and embossing that make these dies so amazing.  I layered some Spellbinders.   I ink distressed the center sentiment panel.  I stitched the panels.  I finished with  a cream color seam binding bow, a prima flower, and two gold pearls.  I am playing along with Moxie Fab World:  Tuesday Trigger inspiration picture.  Just love the warm golds and intricate doily look from the picture.

Happy Thursday, everyone!  It is time for another rotation of ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge (SNTODBD44)!  The assignment is to use Our Daily Bread Design stamps.   The challenge this rotation is all about distressing!  You can ink distress, paper distress, or a combination of the two!  The choice is yours!  Looking forward to seeing what you create!  

For today's card I am using ODBD  Bird and Butterfly Label and Path of Life stamp sets.  I am using papers from My Mind's Eye A Beautiful Life paper pack. I used Spellbinder's Label 18 die for frame.   I used the stamp a ma jig to position the scripture in the window perfectly.  I ink distressed all of the designer papers and cardstock edges.  I used ODBD Vintage Border Embossing Plate on the vertical designer paper panels and ink distressed the embossed areas for more definition.  I combined some sewing machine stitching, seam binding, lace, and gold pearls with gold ornate button to finish my card!  I am playing along with ODBD Shining the Light Challenge(ODBDSLC77) Fall Colors or theme!    I am playing along with My Mind's Eye Blog Challenge 27 Sketch!

ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge (SNTODBD43)!






Happy Thursday, everyone!  It is time for another rotation of ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge (SNTODBD43)!  The assignment is to use Our Daily Bread Design stamps.  The challenge this rotation is sewing!   
You can use real stitches or faux ones.  The choice is yours!  Looking forward to seeing what you create!  

For today's card I am using ODBD  Porch and Pumpkin sets.  I am using various papers from MME Lost and Found Collection.  I have to say this is the best pumpkin with die cut ever!   I love the size, shape, and intricate image details. Okay, maybe I am a little biased, but I had the best fun paper piecing these pumpkins.  I love the intricate curly ques as well as the fabulously flowing leaves. The leaves are big enough to cut out and place for paper piecing ease.  I also used copics to enhance the colors used with the designer papers.  I love how this card turned out.  I combined these fun pumpkins with a scripture from ODBD Porch set.  I used Spellbinder's die for sentiment.  I thought this scripture was perfect for this card in that while I was making the card I was thinking about how God gave us different color palette's for the seasons with different fruits and vegetables.  I was just thinking about the pumpkin and how amazing it is.  The many uses aside from eating pumpkin pie, but pumpkin seeds, decoration.  It is truly one of those items that when you see it you just think fall harvest! I am playing along with ODBD Shining the Light Challenge(ODBDSLC74) Dots or Stripes!  I chose dots!  I am using Chupa's Sketchbook Saturday 27 for today's card!
