ODBD September 2016 New Release and Blog Hop!



Hi Friends!

Welcome to the Our Daily Bread Designs September 2016 Release!! Summer is coming to a close here in the Northeastern United States and this release is perfect for crisp Autumn days as well as year-round cards!

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



I absolutely love this Indian Corn image in the ODBD A-Maize-ing stamp set and the coordinating ODBD Indian Corn Die matches it perfectly!


**Creative Tip ** I used the ODBD Pierced Square Dies (stacked two together) to cut out the frame to make the photo corners.  

I loved using watercolor pencils to watercolor both images on the cards and the ODBD coordinating dies were so easy to match up to the images- in fact, the ODBD Wheelbarrow Die even cut the spokes on the wheel perfectly!

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

Melissa * Julie (you are here)  *
 Sandee * Cathy * Dawn * Lori * Robin * Lisa 
Sabrina * Diana * Angie * Chris * Grace

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 September 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 September 3, 2016 so be sure to check back there to see if you won!

  27. Oh, Julie! What beautiful cards you have created! The Indian corn brings back so many childhood memories. It was like 'Christmas in a husk'. Every ear was different and held a gift of multi colored kernels as you peeled back the husk. Your second card is equally gorgeous. Love the tip for the corners. Do you have a favorite kind of watercolor pencils that you use? What kind of paper did you stamp your wheel barrel on? I am giving Thanks today for you...for your faith, your gifts, and for who you are! You are a blessing!

  30. Great cards! I love that Indian corn stamp a lot!

  31. Both are terrific! I especially the real-wood look used in each design. You have wood on the background paper in the first one and the wheelbarrow looks like wood in the second. They add texture and realism to the cards, and the overall design of each card is very nice. When you add the ODBD sentiments, you have cards that are sure to bless their recipients. :)
