Anniversary Reminder Post

Good morning!

Today we are taking a look back at Our Daily Bread Designs Anniversary Release, here is the card I created using Large Numbers, Celebration, Balloons and Streamers, Ovals and Christian Faith Paper Collection. For more inspiration using the Anniversary Release be sure to visit the ODBD Blog.

I love these colors and just love blue and silver together.

These numbers are fantastic for special birthdays, Anniversaries, and of course, "Class of" cards.

Every year we know kids graduating from our local high school and these are the colors, light blue/dark blue and white (I used some silver to highlight).

When I die cut the numbers I embossed and stenciled some silver on them too. 

The balloons, streamers and oval are cut out of a textured silver metallic paper.

I stamped and embossed the oval with a sentiment from "Celebration", using a Royal Blue foil embossing powder.

The only other embellishments are 3 silver half balls at the lower left side.

9th Anniversary Release Blog Hop

Good morning!

We are celebrating Our Daily Bread Design's 9th Anniversary!!

My first card is for this celebration!!

Amethyst is the alternative color for the 9th Anniversary and since I LOVE purple, especially the Amethyst stone (the first ring my husband gave me as a promise ring), I decided to use it for my color.

I used the new Large numbers and the Celebration Clear stamp set.

I also used the Leafy Edged Border, Pierced Ovals, Bitty Blossoms, Pierced Rectangles, Numbers and Christian Faith Paper Pack.

I die cut the 9 in white and purple then layered them. I did the same with the "th"

I die cute the border in purple and used the edge portion of the die to cut the decorative paper.  I stamped the sentiments on white and die cut them. 

My next card celebrates a Golden Anniversary celebration.

Some of my sweet friends have had these celebrations in the last couple of years.

I used a new gold paper I got that has a bit of texture to it to die cut the 50 and did a second set in white.  The sentiments are done in Gold sparkle embossing powder.  I made white flowers and gold micro beads for the centers. 

The hearts are die cut with the same textured gold paper as my 50.

For a finishing touch I've added sheer white ribbon with gold trim and white pearls.

Come hop along for our special Anniversary Blog Hop

ODBD-Special Anniversary Edition

Good morning!

We have been Celebrating Our Daily Bread Design's 8th Anniversary  

this week, so here is another "Bronze Beauty" using those special Anniversary Edition dies.

As I wrote a few days ago, the color Bronze, when Googled, came up as anywhere from a reddish brown like copper to a chocolate brown metallic color.

 I've done a combination of those colors on my card today!

I used the Winter 2014 paper collection for this card along with some copper (rubbed with oiled Bronze metallic Rub-On), some dark gold, and black for my papers.  I used Perfect pearls, Bronze, for the flower and some mixed fibers.  I also used some gold and brown Prills (US Artquest)

for my flower centers.

ODBD stamps used: Grace's Strength

ODBD dies used: Lavish Layers, Double Stitched Rectangles, Rectangles, Pretty Posies, Easter Eggs, Ornamental Crosses

ODBD paper: Winter Collection 2014

I also made this Gold foiled frame beauty.

ODBD stamps: Grace's Hope, Belles Vignes
ODBD dies: Lavish Layers, Filigree Frames, Double Stitched Rectangles, Rectangles, Flourished Star Pattern

I stamped and embossed the Belles Vignes on white, heat embossed and then ran it through my laminator with gold foil.  The gold foil only sticks to the embossing as it gets warm again when it goes through the laminator.  I then cut my Filigree frame from the gold foiled paper.  The other gold paper used is gold foiled (bought that way), and I used white and black as well.  The bow is gold metal mesh.

I really love the new stamps and dies from the Anniversary sets this year.

They are very decorative and I expect to use them a lot this year!

I think I may experiment with some more foiling as well, that is so fun and really has a rich look.

Oh before you go, today is also the Scavenger Hunt at ODBD.
