ODBD July 2016 New Release


Hello Friends!

Welcome to the July 2016 Our Daily Bread Designs Release!!  I am so excited to announce that in addition to being on the Artistic Outpost Design Team (which is a division of Our Daily Bread Designs), I am now on the Our Daily Bread Design Team affectionately known as the “Breadbaskets”!   

This is an amazing Design Team and I am so thankful and honored to be able to create alongside these talented women :-)

Wow!  The ODBD July 2016 New Release has four gorgeous floral stamp sets along with three spectacular die sets- I absolutely love all of the images, plus my mother loved flowers, especially irises, so this release is near and dear to my heart :-)

 I know that you will not want to miss the inspiration from the rest of the Breadbaskets, plus we would love for you to hop along with us- see more details below :-)




I decided to stamp the image several times, watercolor with water-based markers, fussy-cut the flowers to layer with dimensional foam and added a few pearls to finish off the card.




My second card features the new Sweet As Perfume stamp set with the Ornate Ovals Dies, Beautiful Borders Dies along with the Heart and Soul 6x6 Paper Collection.

I pulled out my sewing machine to stitch the Heart and Soul paper to the card base with a zig-zag stitch, watercolored the flower image with water-based markers before fussy-cutting and layering onto the dies with dimensional foam. 

I had fun designing with these gorgeous sets and I hope that I have inspired you as well :-)   

If you have a chance, check out the fabulous inspiration from my DT Sisters:
Dawn * Lori * Robin * Melissa * Julie 
Sandee * Cathy * Angie * Chris 
Grace * Lisa * Sabrina * Diana * Diane (Guest Designer)

Prize Information: 
Three randomly selected winners will each receive a $25 Gift Code to the ODBD Website just for commenting on the Design Team cards!  You have until July 2, 2016 at 9:00 p.m. EDT to leave your comments on the Designers Blogs for a chance to win!  The Winners will be posted on the ODBD Blog on July 3rd, so be sure to check back there to see if you won!

Thanks again for taking the time to stop by- hugs and I hope you have a blessed week, my friends!

  26. Julie, I have admired your creations for years at SCS...you deserve this spot in the Breadbasket SO much! Congratulations!

    I love both cards, but the first one really catches my eye. We have yellow glads in our yard, and red ones...and sometimes we get a red-orange-mix! With the bold green foliage, they really stand out!

    Again, congrats!
