Welcome to the Our Daily Bread Designs July Release Blog Hop!! If you got here from the Our Daily Bread Designs Blog, you are in the right place!! If not, you might want to start there so you know all the details about today's hop and the prizes that are available!!!!! Kelley, has another exceptional release with lots of great stamps. The team, I know, has lots of inspiration for you, using these stamps. So why don't you grab your favorite beverage and enjoy what they have in store.
This month's hop will run from 8 a.m. EDT on July 1 until 8 p.m. EDT on July 2. The winners will be announced July 3! There will be THREE PRIZES of $20.00 Gift Certificates for stamps and ONE GRAND PRIZE of the ENTIRE BREAD BASKET BUNDLE (The entire release!!!)
All you have to do for a change to win is:
So now.... on to my card:
For my creation I used the sets Calla Lilly and Sharing Your Sorrow from Our Daily Bread Designs. These stamps were so beautiful that I just colored the image with copics, cut it out and framed it with Spellbinders Labels 22 on top of a piece of white cardstock embossed with Provocraft (Cuttlebug) Swiss Dots. I did not want design paper to detract from the image or take away from the softness of it so I mounted the framed image on a piece of white cardstock (Neehan Solar White) that was embossed with the Sizzix Plaid folder. The sentiment from Sharing your Sorrow is framed with Spellbinders Petite Ovals and Fancy Tags 2.
Card Recipe:
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs: Sharing Your Sorrow, Calla Lilly
Paper: Neenah Solar White (110 lbs)
Accessories: Sizzix Plaid Embossing Folder, Cuttlebug Swiss Dots Embossing Folder, Spellbinders-Labels 22, Petite Ovals, Fancy Tags 2, White sheer Ribbon, pearls
My Second creation is one I created using the Flowering Faith and Sharing Your Sorrow for this week's ODBD Shining the Light challenge- ODBDSLC114 Anything Goes with Our Daily Bread Designs and this week's Queen Of the Day 119 casing some of the elements of Mary's card Hello Doily I am not as lucky as Mary to have that gorgeous doily stamp but I decided to create my own stamped doily by sponging over Cheery Lynn's Canadian Kaleidoscope . I also used three flowers like Mary but changed the layout, stamps, and color as well as added some vines.

Beautiful cards...always great to have new ideas for sympathy cards!
Beautiful cards Chris!!! Love how you created your own doily with the sponging technique.
Very pretty sympathy cards.
Very nice card. Love your lily.
Two beautiful cards...that first looks like it has come right out of the garden, your coloring is beautiful, as is the layout. Love the idea of sponging to create the doily look an fabulous card. Hugs.
Chris, I saw the second card last night but obviously was so tired I didn't even notice you had a stencil there! I love it - much more versatile than what I thought you had, which was a piece of patterned paper! And I love how you refer to the beauty of the first card as "I just...." Ha! If I could color that well, design that well.... Thanks for sharing your talents!
Beautiful cards. The colors n the first one are very rich.
Love the sponging over the die template...beautiful effect!
Very nice cards. I like that you did white on white with the only color being the image, very pretty. I like how you made your background for the second card too!
Both cards are lovely, but I particularly like how you sponged the doily on the second card.
Beautiful work and tender sentiments! God Bless you,
Kathy
Love all the pearls on the first one, Chris....and the water colors on the second one are so calming. Lovely cards!

I hope all is well with that storm and all! Hugs and blessings, Sabrina
Your cards are gorgeous. Great ideas. Hope to try them soon.
Thanks,
Candy Meyers
The calla lily card is simply beautiful and the "doily" card is fantastic!
Chris!!
Wow your cards have loads of beautiful detail and love:) You did a very lovely job on these;) The ODBD stamps are super especially with the way that you interpreted them:) I love the little blossoms that you made/placed on your 'blue' card:) i'm trying to figure out how you did the reverse masking of the doily---did you flip the mask while it was wet with you color mist and 'stamp'? whatever you did---it looks super.Thank you for sharing and for allowing me to learn from you:) be blessed

It's so nice to have ODB'd tasteful and sensitive sympathy offerings. They are just perfect and very meaningful to those who receive them.
Hi Chris~
You "hope that we are somehow inspired by your cards?" PUH-leeze! These cards are both so beautiful. I think for these cards, for these occassions, I think the beauty IS in the simplicity. The stamps, and the coloring are amazing,my friend. You were so creative to come up with a "faux" doily! Fabulous!
He IS Able!
