ODBD May Release Blog Hop

Happy Wednesday again!

This is my second post for today!  If you are looking for my Heartfelt Creations Post, please see the post below or click here!

Welcome to the Our Daily Bread Designs May Release Blog Hop! If you got here from the super talented Sabrina's blog, you're in the right place! If not, you might want to start at the ODBD Blog so you don't miss anything! Here are the basic details of the hop:

• Hop will run from 8:00 am EDT May 1 to 8:00pm EDT May 2
• Winners will be announced May 3 on the ODBD Blog
• There will be THREE prizes: a $20.00, $30.00, and $40.00 Gift Certificate toward stamps in the ODBD Store. *Must be redeemed within the month of May!
• To qualify to win all you have to do is hop to each designer's blog, leave a comment, and return to the ODBD Blog to tell us you completed the hop, and if you had any difficulties along the way! Easy Peasy!!!

For my card, I used an awesome new set called "The Waves on the Sea".

Click on the photo for a better view!

To create my card, I stamped the ship image with Vintage Sepia on "Wish" designer paper, first stamping it "off" on scrap paper.  Then I stamped the verse with Onyx Black Ink slightly over the image.  I love the effect this gives and it's such a quick and simple technique!  I added a plaid mat behind it and matted both with black cardstock.  The card base is black with a mat using Hermit Cardstock by Coredinations.  I embossed the mat with an embossing folder and ran the Amaretto and Mocha Mama Ink Pad over it a little.  I finished it off with a couple of brads, a button and some twine.

Here is a picture of the set I used which I think is perfect for masculine cards and would be great for Father's Day!

Card recipe:

Paper: Little Black Dress (Basic Grey), Wish - Serendipity (The Paper Loft)
Ink: Onyx Black, Vintage Sepia (VersaFine), Amaretto, Mocha Mama (Powder Puffs)
Accessories: Paper Lace II Embossing Folder (Cuttlebug), button, twine, brads, Bow-Easy


Now, from here you will hop to Cathy's fabulous blog where you're in for a real treat!  Have fun hopping!

I'm submitting this to the Basic Grey Challenge #92 - Masculine. (Little Black Dress)

Here is my card for the challenge this week!

I chose to do piercing (on the black mat) because I'm not too fond of sewing!  The one time I tried machine sewing on paper it came out terrible!  I used the beautiful Romantic Floral Designs Stamps for the flourished frames on the layers, matching the Labels 26 Dies.  The sentiment is from the Flourished Verses Set which I think goes nicely with the frames.  The thing I love about these frames is they're clear stamps so it's easy to stamp them around sentiments.  Here are the sets I used.

 

 

 

 

Card recipe:

 

Stamps: Romantic Floral Designs, Flourished Verses (ODBD)

Paper: Black, peach, The Mariposa Stack (DCWV)

Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine)

Accessories: Piercer, Labels 26 (Spellbinders), adhesive pearls (Want-2-Scrap and Recollections), Black Seam Binding (Really Reasonable Ribbon), flower punch (EKSucess), jewelery findings/stick pin, Bow-Easy

I used an older set, "On Eagle's Wings", with this beautiful eagle and verse.  The eagle image is colored with pencils and mineral on a piece of tan designer paper so the white pencil would show up.  I fussy cut the image, shaped it a little and added it over the Scripture with pop dots.  Here's a close up:

Here is a picture of the stamp set:

I wanted this to be a masculine card so I didn't add much for embellishments.  I did add a twine bow and some metal stickers, but I think it still masculine enough!

Paper: Heritage Scrapper's Solution (HOTP), black, red (DCWV Stack)

(Click on photo for a closer look)

I made a slider style card using scripture from the On Eagles' Wings Set.

For the sentiment inside, I used the Flourished Verses Set. 

Here's another photo of the card laying flat.

 

I had a little trouble with inspiration this week, so I made a trip to my local scrapbook store and found these pretty Authentique Papers called Cherish.  I love these papers with the roses and pinks!  I get a lot of my inspiration from designer papers and even though I have TONS already, LOL, I had to get more!  I did all the stamping directly on the solid designer papers.  Also, if you look closely, there is a faint eagle image with the verse on front.

Card recipe:

Stamps: On Eagles' Wings, Flourished Verses (Our Daily Bread Designs)
Paper: Natural White (Neenah), Cherish (Authentique), burgandy (DCWV), Always Artichoke
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine), Victoria Velvet Distress Ink
Accessories: Alway Artichoke Seam Binding (RAK from Jill :-), Elegant Scrollwork Die (Memory Box), Timeless Rectangles Dies (Spellbinders), button, Bow-Easy, jute, charm, brad

Here is my card for the challenge this week...

My card base is made with the Labels One Grand Die placing the top edge of the card base slightly above the die edge.  This beautiful frame image is from the new Romantic Floral Designs Stamp Set.  I stamped the sentiment from the Sentiments Collection first on designer paper, then stamped the frame image over it.  The frame image is a clear stamp so it was PERFECT for me lining it up over the sentiment!  I just love that!  The frame image is cut with the Labels 26 Die that matches the frame.  I cut a piece of black cardstock with Decorative Labels One to mat behind the image.  I then added some pearls, a flower and branches.  Very, very simple card to make!

CottageCutz - Garden Thank You

Happy Wedesday!

Today I have a card to show you using 2 CottageCutz' Dies, Garden Bird Branch and Butterfly Mini.

(Click on photo for a better view)

I cut the butterfly and branch using green cardstock and shaped the branch a little.  I cut them again with white cardstock and colored the pieces with chalk inks.  The birds and flowers were added with pop dots onto the first layer.  I embossed the top portion of the white mat with an embossing folder and stamped a sentiment on the bottom.  I wrapped ribbon around the mat and glued all the pieces down.  I then added a bow and some liquid pearls.

I love this little butterfly die, I didn't much to it and it came out so cute!  The branch will be good to used for the birds alone and the branch pieces to add to other creations and dies.

These are the dies that I used on this:

Card Recipe:

Stamp: Flourished Verses (Our Daily Bread Designs)
Paper: Solar White (Neenah), green (DCWV Stack), Wisteria (Coredinations)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine), Purple Hydrangea, Aegean Blue, Spanish Olive (VersaMark)
