Welcome to the Our Daily Bread Designs November 2016 Release!



Hi Friends!

Welcome to the Our Daily Bread Designs November 2016 Release Blog Hop!! Christmas is almost here and I just love all of the stamp sets and dies in this new release.

I know that you will not want to miss the inspiration from the rest of the ODBD “Breadsticks”Design Team and we would love to have you hop along with us- see more details below...

My first card features the new ODBD Jingle Bell Time stamp set along with the new ODBD Snowflake Season Collection 6x6 Paper Pad and previously released ODBD Pierced Rectangles Dies and ODBD Lavish Layers Dies.

I absolutely love this Jingle Bell Time image- so much fun to color!  I used water-based markers to watercolor the image and background- added a bit of layering for a quick and easy card!


My second card features the new ODBD Snowflake Sky Die, ODBD Snow Crystals Dies along with the previously released ODBD Noel Border Die.


To create the background, I inked the ODBD Snowflake Sky Die with raspberry distress ink, stamped onto white cardstock and spritzed with water.  

Once the panel was dry, I decided that the image was not defined enough so I die cut and embossed the ODBD Snowflake Sky Die from white and raspberry cardstock, layered over the stamped background and added the raspberry ODBD Noel Border Die along with the ODBD Snow Crystals Dies plus a bit of shimmer and rhinestones to finish off the card.

 I hope I have inspired you today and that you will take the time to visit the rest of my ODBD Design Team Sisters to check out their gorgeous creations!
