ODBD August Reminder Post

Good morning!

Today we are taking a look back at Our Daily Bread Designs August Release, here are the cards I created using the new Thanks For Everything Stamp/die Duos and the new Woodpecker stamp set. For more inspiration using the August Release be sure to visit the ODBD Blog.

For this first card I also used Apples, Layered Lacey Squares, Pierced Squares, Squares, Pierced Ovals and Beautiful Boho Collection

I stamped and colored my apple barrel with Copic Markers then die cut it with the Pierced Squares. Die cut one layer of Boho paper with the Squares and cut another layer of the paper to 4 1/8" X 5 3/8".

I cut the Layered Lacey Square scallop from white, the sentiment I cut with the Pierced Ovals from white, and my card base is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" folded, from white.  I have a layer of dark red cut from the squares behind the scallops and my "Thanks" is cut from dark red (kind of a rusty red).

Several layers are popped up with foam tape.

My second card using the Woodpecker set also uses:

Vintage Flourish Pattern, Pierced Rectangle, Vintage Borders and Soulful Stitches paper pack.

I cut the Soulful Stitches paper with the Vintage Flourish Patter then I stamped the sentiment inside the Vintage Flourish Pattern.

I stamped and cut out the woodpecker and popped it up over my Vintage Flourish Patter and over my Vintage Borders cut from ivory.  I added red nailhead stickers and ivory ribbon to finish.

DRS Challenge #198 That's Tasty!

Good morning!!

Time for a new challenge! Anything to eat!

DRS stamps used: 791L Bountiful Basket, Wood grain Background (new release)

I stamped the basket and cut it out with My Favorite Things stitched circle die.  I then cut out a mat with a larger stitched circle die.  I colored with Copic markers.  For the wood grain boards, I stamped with brown ink on tan paper and did not add to the color so the lines you see is basically what the stamp looks like.  It was stamped probably about 3 times across (as the stamp is 2 boards wide-about 1 5/8").  My "thanks" is a die from Elizabeth Craft Designs. I pierced the orange panel with a foam piece and piercer and used a scallop border punch for the bottom layers. After arranging the elements and gluing them together I added the threaded leaf button and orange dotted bow.  That's all folks!
