Happy New Year and welcome to the ODBD January 2016 Release Hop!

Hello and Happy New Year friends! I would like to take just a minute and wish you all God's blessings in every area of your life! I appreciate each and every one of you and hope that you will continue to stick with me in 2016! Alright, you came here to see the Our Daily Bread Designs January release and I would like to share two cards with you all that I have made using two of the new stamps and one of the new Custom dies.

Wishing you were here

And here is my second card. For this one I have used one of the new journaling stamps called "Your Mercies" . Since this is a larger stamp my card is a bit larger, I had to make is 4.25" x 7" to not make it to chopped off, but I really like how it came out. These new journaling stamps are so awesome, you can use them directly in your Journaling bible, on bookmarks, like I did on cards, the sky is really the limit. Have a look

Check out the Our Daily Bread Designs October Mid-Month Release!

Hello and happy Thursday friends! Today I am coming to you with two cards that I have created for the Our Daily Bread Designs October 2015 Mid-Month Release and let me tell you, you will love these stamps and dies! I have chosen one of the stamp sets that has only scripture, you all know how much I love scriptures. :) There are a bunch of cutting dies as well, but I did not choose any of them, and really kind of regret it. Oh well, they are all going on my wish list! :D Let me get started and show you my first card, for this one I have used one of my all time favorite paper collections "Shabby Rose", just love, love, love this paper, so shabby and beautiful!

Light Is Shed

Recipe:

Paper: White, Pink, DP ODBD Shabby Rose Paper Collection

Stamps: ODBD Everlasting Light

Inks: VersaFine Onyx Black, Memento Angel Pink

Accessories: ODBDB Custom dies Fancy Foliage, Ornate Hearts, WOC flowers, Tulle fabric, rhinestone

Size: 5.25" x 5.25"

Alright, let me get right to my second card. For this one I have used the same stamp set "Everlasting Light" some older cutting dies and some of the brand new Paper Collection called Christmas Card Collection 2015. 

God Will Be Your Glory

Recipe:

Paper: Vintage Cream, DP ODBD Christmas Card Collection 2015

Stamps: ODBD Everlasting Light

Inks: Memento Toffee Crunch

Accessories: ODBD Custom dies  Vintage Labels, Beautiful Borders, Fancy Foliage, Decorative Corners, Antique Labels and Border,  flat back pearls, pearls, pearl pick

Size: 5.5" x 5.5"  (this one is a little bigger, as the corner die cuts that I've used are bigger)

Those are my two cards! I know one is not a Christmas card, but I thought since the scripture that I chose for my first card, can be used for any occasion, I would make a card that is non Christmas. :)

I hope I was able to inspire you with both of my cards. To get some more inspiration and to see what the rest of the Bread Sticks have come up with make sure you'll check out

Julie * Dawn * Amy * Chris * Cathy * Grace * Sandee * RobinT. * Lori * Sabrina (that's me) * Angie * Diana
