Hello Friends!!  I hope this post finds you all well!!  It has been a bit since I have posted.  It sure has been busy as we prepare for craft shows as well as work.  Happy Fall!!

Fall is such a beautiful time of year...my favorite!  After hot humid days the fall temperatures are so welcome!!  So comfortable!  The leaves change their color.  "To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven." Ecclesiastes 3:1

Today I would like to share a sneak peek of a creation I made using some new stamps, dies, and papers, being released at Our Daily Bread Designs tomorrow!! 

I created a shaker card with sequins using the new stamp set Be a Sunflower and the coordinating Sunflower die as well as the Fall Favorites Paper pack.   The fun shape is created using the Rounded Rectangles and Double Stitched Rounded Rectangles. The added decorative strips are created using the Bitty Border dies. The sentiment is framed with ovals cut from the Layered Lacey Ovals and Ovals dies.


The "Bread Basket" has a lot of inspiration to share with you tomorrow!! You won't want to miss the release.  Have a blessed day!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome Friends!! Today North Coast Creations (sister company to Our Daily Bread Designs)  has an awesome and fun release!! If you are looking for animal themed or need to create baby card or kid's birthday cards, this release is a must have.  

Today I am sharing 4 cards I created with 2 of the 3 stamp sets being released today.  These stamp sets include coordinating dies for cutting out the animals and creating 3d images. Each of the cards will have the stamps and dies used from  North Coast Creations or Our Daily Bread Designs.

Hello Friends and Welcome to the September New Our Daily Bread Designs Release!!  You won't want to miss all the inspiration from the ODBD Breadbasket (ODBD design team) using these fun patriotic themed stamps and dies!  This month ODBD is releasing two fun fold dies!!

My first project uses the fun Tri-shutter card die and the coordinating Tri-Shutter Layer Dies which makes creating this special fold card so easy with amazing results!!! This card uses sentiments from the new Remembrance stamp set as well the Stars and Stripes 6x6 Paper Pad.  The card was embellished with balloons from the Happy Birthday die set as well as the Sparkling Stars and Double Stitched Star dies.  The sentiments are framed and cut from the Layered Lacey Ovals, Pierced Circles, Circles and Ovals dies.

My second creation is another tri-shutter card created with the amazing Tri-shutter card die and coordinating Tri-shutter layers.  The sentiments are from the Remembrance stamps set.  The background is layered with the Stars and Stripes 6x6 Paper pad.  The front is embellished with a decorative sentiment die cut using the Thank You die.  It includes additional stars cut using the Sparkling Stars and Double Stitched Star dies from gold metallic card stock, white card stock and Stars and Stripes Designer paper.  The sentiments are framed with the Ovals, Pierced Ovals, Circles, and Pierced Circles.

My last creation is a simple top fold card which I created with the Defining Forces stamp set.  I just love this sentiment!  The background is created with Kraft paper which was embossed using the Lattice Backgrounds Die and stars cut out with the Double Stitched Stars.  A piece of solid red paper from the Stars and Stripes paper is placed behind it.  Stars were then cut from scraps of the Stars and Stripes 6x6 paper using the Sparkling Stars dies to be adhered in the precut stars of the background.  The sentiment is die cut using the Vintage Labels die.  The outside frame is created using the Pierced Rectangles dies and Double Stitched Rectangles dies.
