ODBDSLC283 Faith, Hope, Love

Hi Friends! 

It’s time for the new Our Daily Bread Designs Shining the Light ODBDSLC283 Inspiration Challenge!  

I just love this beautiful photo- don’t you?

All of the pretty lace, flowers, Scripture and colors- so soft and feminine and perfect for Weddings, Valentine’s Day, Birthdays, etc.

I decided to create another card showcasing the February ODBD Release stamp set, Let Love Grow along with a few previously released ODBD Dies and Paper.  

I think this card would work as a Valentine or Wedding card and am also participating in the  IN{K}Spire_Me #286 "Valentine's Special" Challenge :-)

If you have not visited the rest of my ODBD Design Team Sisters’ (affectionately known as the "Bread Sticks") blogs and checked out their fabulous projects yet, I hope you will find time to do so- they are such an inspiration for sure!

To create this card:

1). Ink the verse sentiment from the ODBD Let Love Grow stamp set with espresso ink, stamp onto vanilla cardstock.  Die cut and emboss with the ODBD Pierced Ovals Dies. Die cut and emboss a piece of espresso cardstock with the ODBD Ornate Ovals Dies and mount the stamped oval onto the oval frame.

2). Die cut and emboss a piece of ODBD Cozy Quilt Collection Paper with the ODBD Pierced Rectangles Dies, mount onto a piece of vanilla cardstock, trim close to the edge and mount onto the espresso card base.

3). Add the layered die cut/embossed stamped oval to the card front.

4). Die cut and emboss a piece of peach, vanilla and pear cardstock with the ODBD Bitty Blossoms Dies. Assemble the flowers and add to the card front.

5). Die cut and emboss espresso cardstock with the ODBD Small Bow Dies, add to the card front and adhere a peach die cut flower to the center of the bow.

6). Finish off the card by adding pearls to the center oval frame, flower centers as well as the corners.

PP228 CAS Faith, Hope and Love

Hi Stampers!!

I decided to create a Clean and Simple (CAS) card for the PP228 CAS SentimentOnly Challenge at The Paper Players along with the Splitcoaststampers USEIT2015 Challenge (challenge to use stamps or products that you own that you have not used yet) and the Divine Design Bible Verse Challenge 2015.  

I decided to pull out a retired set from 2005 that has not ever seen ink plus some retired Designer Series Paper (DSP) from years ago :-)

Hopefully you will find the time to visit each of the sites/galleries- check out the Design Team samples as well as the other entries (great job by all!)...

To create this card:

Ink the Love panel using Blushing Bride Classic Ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock and stamp the verse sentiment using Cherry Cobbler Classic Ink over the Love sentiment. Trim the panel and mount onto Cherry Cobbler cardstock. 

Use the Big Shot™ to cut the lace border die from Whisper White cardstock, trim to fit the sentiment panel and add to the back.

Use the Big Shot™ with the Woodgrain Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of Whisper White cardstock, trim to 1 ¼” width and mount onto a piece of onto Cherry Cobbler cardstock.

Mount the retired piece of Blushing Bride Designer Series Paper (DSP)  to a piece of Whisper White cardstock, trim and mount onto a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock, trim and mount onto the Whisper White card base.

Add the vertical embossed panel to the card front and mount the sentiment panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals® to finish off the card.
