Our Daily Bread Designs SLC 275 Tri-Shutter 2 Card Celebrate


Hello Everyone! 

Today I created this birthday card for a friend and I did it without using a single stamp!!! I love stamping and coloring images, but this was fun and easy to put together. 

I started with the Our Daily Bread Designs Tri-Shutter 2 card base in Ivory, then used a bunch of the ODBD new metal dies to cut out all of these fun pieces: ODBD Celebrate & Wish, ODBD Balloons & Streamers, ODBD Bitty Borders, ODBD Cake & Candles,  ODBD Mini Bow, ODBD Ovals, ODBD Pierced Ovals, and ODBD Doily.  The papers are from ODBD Birthday Bash and ODBD Birthday Brights. 

I left the ivory rectangle in the middle blank so that I can write a little message in there. 

Our Daily Bread Designs challenge this month is to add dimension, to "pop it up" , or use a Fancy Fold card so I am going to play along with this card.  You can find details about the challenge here:

Here is the card when folded flat so you can see the front view.

Our Daily Bread Designs Sentiments Collection 2


Hello! 

Today's card was made using one of my favorite stamp sets, Our Daily Bread Designs Sentiments Collection 2. There are five sentiments included in this set and I find myself reaching for these all of the time. You can find the set here:

After stamping and heat embossing the sentiment, I layered it up on circles cut from ODBD Circles Dies and ODBD Double Stitched Circles Die. I die cut a bunch of little flowers using ODBD Bitty Blossoms and popped a few on dimensional adhesive. The vine was cut using ODBD Foliage and Leaves Die, and I added some ODBD Beautiful Borders on the top and bottom. Then I added some pearls and a little ribbon to finish it off. The papers are from the ODBD Heart And Soul Collection. 

Thank you for stopping by!
