Welcome to the ODBD March Release Day Blog Hop!

 

Good morning!  And welcome to the ODBD March release blog hop!

We are so happy you are hopping with us today!

If you arrived here from the blog of the incredibly talented Julie, then you are in the right place.  If not, you may want to start at the ODBD blog so you won't miss anything along the way!  There are prized at stake here y'all!!!  Here are the particulars:

• Hop will run from 8:00am EST Mar 1   to 8:00pm EST  Mar 2
•  Winners announced Mar 3 
•  Prizes: There sill be FIVE PRIZES of $20.00 GC for STAMPS in the ODBD Store!
• To qualify to win, simply hop to each blog, leave some love for each designer, and return to the ODBD Blog to let us know you completed the hop, and tell us which SET or SETS you like the best!

Now on to my first project!

First, let me apologize for all the photos but I wanted you to be able to see everything!  I used lots of sets for this little recipe book, some new and some old.  This month's release is so fun!  I used the new ODBD/Spellbinders Recipe and Tag Dies, cutting the cards from chipboard packaging and from white card stock.  Then I stamped the card stock pieces in a pale blue with the new Gingham Background.  I did lots of masking to stamp each recipe card tab with words from the new Marriage Recipe set.  And I stamped the full top half of the Marriage Recipe for the front cover and the second half for the back cover.  Then I chose several scriptures from past sets to go with each tab category.  I cut all of these pieces out with the Spellbinders Labels Four.  Then I stamped the rolling pin from the new set Baking Gift Tags and attached each panel to the cards.  I added pearls to each panel and then a little flower arrangement on the cover. All cards are put together with my Bind It All to make this little Marriage Recipe Book!  This would make a cute gift for a bride to be or for an anniversary!   Adding special photos would be fun too! 

 Here are more photos of the inside:

 

 

 

Here is one more little card I made with the new Happy Spring set and the Gingham Background!

Here are all the ODBD sets and supplies I used for these two projects:

Whew!  

I know that was a lot and I really appreciate you hanging with me through such a long post!  

Your next hop stop is to the blog of sweet sweet Sabrina!!!  

Enjoy!!!

Scripture Series 2 Release Day!!!

Good morning y'all!   Our Daily Bread Designs is having a special middle-of-the-month stamp set release! If you remember, back in March, Kelley was looking for favorite scriptures for a new ODBD set. She had a Customer Favorite's Contest, and now it's time to reveal the winners and the new, beautiful sets called Scripture Series 2 and Scrolly Borders. Each winner made cards using their chosen scripture stamp!  How cool is that?!  To see all of the winner's cards and get all the details, please see Kelley's post HERE.

The design team has also created some beautiful cards and layouts using this new set. 

Here is a list with links to all the ODBD designers who are playing along today!

Now, be sure to leave a comment because there are THREE $20.00 Gift Certificate prizes hidden along the way! Winners will be announced Wednesday, August 17, on the ODBD blog so be sure to check back! 

 I decided to make a little book using all six of the scriptures from the new set!  I tried to be organized while creating this but here is a little hint for you!  DO NOT bind the book pages until AFTER you have finished stamping the pages!  I thought I was doing right by binding first but that gave me limited freedom of stamping more of the Scrolly Borders!  I intended to use those more!  I did manage to get one on the first page but I had to hide where some of the stamp didn't show with a flower!  LOL!!  After gluing the designer paper to the chipboard pages, I painted the backs and around the front edges with acrylic paint and then I used my Bind-it-All to bind the pages before decorating. I also dirtied the pages up with distress ink.  

Then it was just a matter of adding snips of this and bits of that to complete the little book!!!

 Here are the supplies:

Scrolly Borders

Chipboard from packaging

ODBD June Blog Hop

 

Hi everyone!  Welcome to the June Release Blog Hop!!!  Kelley has some awesome sets for you this month and the Design Teams have been having a blast playing with them!!!  So today, our hop is all about these fabulous sets!  There are no secret words to collect, no email to send... just a fun blog hop.  I am the first stop on the hop today but you may want to check out the ODBD blog and start from there!!!

 

 Here is what you have to do to be eligible to win one of the prizes:

• Hop to each blog, leave a comment on each one.
• Return to the ODBD Blog Hop post and leave a comment there telling us that you completed the hop and left everyone comments.
• If for any reason you cannot leave a comment, please give us the name/s of the designers you were unable to leave comments for... and you'll still be qualified for the drawing.

Here's the fun part!  There are THREE prizes of $15.00 Gift Certificates to the ODBD Store, but they are hidden on three different designer's blogs, and even the designers don't know themselves who has them yet!!!

• The Blog Hop will run from 8am Eastern  June 1 through 8pm Eastern June 2.

• At that time the three designers with the prizes will be notified and they will randomly select their winner from their commenters. (So be sure to leave comments on all their blogs!)   
• They will check the ODBD post to be sure the person they draw has left their comment there, stating that they have completed the hop....
• Then they will give the name to Grace, and the winners will be announced on Sat. the 5th along with the Shining the Light Challenge! 

The sets I am using today are another fabulous border set called Fleur de Lis Borders and  a wonderful scripture set called Scripture Series 1.  Kelley had a little contest and asked for submissions from her customers and then she chose 6 to be used for this set!  How cool!!!  

I decided to make a little Scripture book, using all six of the scriptures in the set.  I've used thin pieces of chipboard saved from packaging and cut with Spellbinders dies.  Pretty papers, ribbons and embellishments complete this fun little project.  Kelley, this one's for you!
