Good morning blog friends!!!  Welcome to the Our Daily Bread Designs February Release Blog Hop Now, if you got here from Grace’s amazing blog, you are in the right place!  If not, you might want to start at the Our Daily Bread Designs Blog and hop from there!  If you encounter any broken links – the entire hop list is posted on the ODBD Blog :-) There are lots of goodies in store for you with the new release – you can see them all HERE.


For my card today I thought to touch purple again.  I have to say that purple is growing on me :-)  This is a little bit of an unconventional card, but I wanted to use the new wings from Spellbinders™ Wings of Hope as an embellishment on my bow.  For the focal point on the card I used Spellbinders™ Grand Dahlia and in the center I layered Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Four, added Spellbinders™ Postage Stamp then added the sentiment cut with  Spellbinders™ Classic Rectangles LG.  I love to overstamp, so I overstamped the new Our Daily Bread Designs background stamp called It Is Well With My Soul music background on top of my design paper.  Then for my sentiment I used a small one from The Sea.

 

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs The Sea, It is Well With My Soul Background
Paper: Die Cuts with a View – Chateau Lavender (Joann’s), Bazzill
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, Vintage Photo Distress Ink
Accessories: Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Four, Spellbinders™ Postage Stamp, Spellbinders™ Wings of Hope. Spellbinders™ Classic Rectangles LG, Spellbinders™ Grand Dahlia, silk ribbon

Hop Particulars:
The Hop will run from 8:00 am Eastern Time on February 1st until 8:00 pm Eastern Time on February 2nd. The winners will be announced on the ODBD Blog on February 3rd.  For this special event, there will be FOUR PRIZES  – a free set of your choice of ODBD stamps and the big prize is a Bread Basket Bundle!

How to Enter the Drawing:
*Leave comments for each designer on each blog.
*Return to the ODBD Blog and leave a comment, telling us you completed the hop and there’s a question for you to answer.
*Note any blogs you were unable to comment on.

Your Next Stop:
Lots of great eye candy to see today!!  To move on, your next stop is with my super sweet design teammate Chris Olsen
!

Yesterday someone pointed out to me that a team was at the Spellbinders™ booth at CHA taping a show and they were showing off the crown that I made as a part of the blog frenzy.  When I shot pictures, I used red velvet as a backdrop, I wanted to give it an air of richness, but I’m not really sure I accomplished that.  Anyways, if you want to see how the crown really looks, check out this 1 minute video over at Paperclipping.com.  Don’t tarry though, there are so many good CHA videos over there.  I wound up checking out the new products and now it’s too late to turn the want monster off, lol!!   Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I’ll see you soon!!

    Becca I really love this card! It makes me think of my sister as she loves purple! Love those angel wings too. You are just so creative and pull things together so well. I have always wondered if when you sit down to create a card if you choose the spellbinders you want to use and then pull the paper. I have not made that many cards and wonder how you sit and pull it all together. What steps do you use when creating? Anyway, love this card!ReplyCancel

  • Lindyloo, South Wales, UKFebruary 1, 2012 - 8:07 pm

    Hi again Becca, I hope you are well.
    Todays card is a tower of achievement in my eyes, as you have again used shades of purple and with a magnificient result. The added rich cream and hint of green give it a soft country garden look (think Pride & Prejudice and fabric prints from the house of ‘Laura Ashley’ ). This soft vintage chic is so big now and looking at your card you can see why, it is delicate, feminine and adorable.
    As I was unable to comment yesterday (though I have commented now), I would like to say that you should not feel embarassed or any other negative feeling for that matter, with regard to your latest and possible future business ventures. You have given to your followers every day through your blog, with your creations, tutorials, information and multiple candy giveaways. To now, be able to recognise your dreams and prayers is something to be pleased with and to push forward with continually.
    You were given these talents and you have used them graciously and generously and now it is your turn to see this form of generosity and graciousness in others around and for you.
    If I could acquire one of your bowmakers I would do so immediately as it is a wonderful piece of kit to own, but also to show you that your generosity has not gone unnoticed or without appreciation.
    I pray God will continue to bless you and provide you with joy abounding this year.
    Take care of yourself LindaReplyCancel

    Hi Becca~

    This is beautiful, so delicate. I love the color choices you used…beautiful and soft. I love the wings with the bow…I am sure that will be a very popular look…(as everyone will be copying you!) I love how you have lightly stamped the music on the background sheet. I didn’t see it, until I read about it. Now, I see it clearly when I look at the card. I love the leaves and vines. I love this layered look…it is amazing.

    This is a piece to be proud of. And, as far as purple…it is the color of royalty…as in the King of Kings!

    He IS Able!

    Dear Becca, Your blog is my daily inspiration for my creativity. I usually evaluate your cards to see if I can get close to something like it, (usually not!). But even when I think I can, individuality always gets in the way. Seeing others’ variations on a them is even more inspiring, so I think sharing what your blog followers are doing with your ideas would be a hoot. I know I would enjoy seeing it, because all YOUR blog followers are terrific, talented and sweet ladies!
    On another note, I tried to follow the blog hop, but ran into logistical issues. Also, I got so involved and side-tracked with all the wonderful blogs, I was in blog heaven. I had fun anyway. Thankx

Hi there blog friends!  Let me start out by saying thank you so much — I am humbled by the sweet honor of your favor!!   I asked God for courage, and received an answer loud and clear, in a way that has left me awed and speechless.  If you left a message for me by going to my contact page and saying that you wanted to be on the pre-order list for the Peg Bow Maker, you should have received an email from me with a link to the ordering page and with my sincere thanks for believing in me.   I have yet another tool that I’ve been developing for the last year and a half that will see the light of day soon.   It’s not a do-it-yourself kind of thing but you’ve empowered me think I can actually finish bringing it to life.  Ah, courage . . .

In the mean time, there’s yet a wonderful new die template that you’ve not seen yet.  I wasn’t able to show it before CHA and it almost killed me!!  Spellbinders™ Floral Ovals is a template that I’ve been dreaming of.  I love ovals and use them often, but this one has a decorative, romantic, feminine flare.  I used two of the Floral Ovals set slightly askew to create an opening for my sentiment panel using Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Five.  Onr top of the opening I laid  Spellbinders™ Twisted Metal Tags and Accents – I know I use that a lot!!  Paired with new stamps from JustRite Stampers that you haven’t seen yet either – I ask you to turn your thoughts toward the Easter that approaches.  Using a sentiment from JustRite called Easter Blessing Oval Medallion, I  paired it the new JustRite Fleur de Lis Background Stamp.   Up the side of the card I used Spellbinders™ Moroccan Accents that I layered with lace and seam binding and finished with a Triple Bow (Double bow + 1 on Peg Bow Maker).

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: JustRite Stampers –Fleur de Lis Background StampEaster Blessing Oval Medallion
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Cream 80lb, Bazzill
Ink:  Colorbox Chalk Ink – Prussian Blue, Stormy Sky Distress Ink
Accessories: Spellbinders™ Moroccan Accents,  Spellbinders™ Floral Ovals, Spellbinders™ Twisted Metal Tags and Accents, Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Five, Seam Binding, Pearl Pick, Recolletions Pearls

Sincerely sweet friends, I am amazed – I read every email yesterday and responded individually to more than 250 of you, I have more to go but missed a night’s sleep somewhere in this adventure.  They were not all emails about the bow maker, some of them were well wishes and some were other people in my same situation reaching out for a shared word.  It’s a lesson to me daily that I don’t know everything about the world, but I do know that I have a treasure in the family I’ve made in blog land and I want you to know there’s not an iota of your kindness that I take for granted.

  • Marcie SmithJanuary 31, 2012 - 3:15 pm

    I too love this new oval !!!! As soon as I saw it, it went on my order. I am really intrigued with the tuck and fold dies, they remind me of some older brass border templates that had come out many years ago. Each cut had to be done by exacto knife, but it was all the rage in the scrapbook world. The other amazing new Spellbinder release was the new e-embossabilities. Some of them are really gorgeous and I just couldn’t help my self. I had to ask the question many times however, before someone finally told me that you need the new rasberry adapter plate for these. So I quickly slipped that on my order as well. This was the first time thou that I can honestly say there were some dies that I actually could live without. That hasn’t happened in a really long time.

    Becca, I am SO glad that you are marketing your Peg Bow Maker!!! My sweet husband made one for me from your pictures and description, and I am using it all the time. Best wishes on your endeavor!

    Next I asked my husband to help me with the Loom, after finding my round, hinged, wooden box at Michael’s for 9 cents. I had to buy the last two and make one for our daughter as well.

    I look forward to any and all your posts, including the absolutely wonderful one today. This card will be a favorite of mine – with the Easter verse in blue and ivory and all the Spellbinder layers and lace/pearl embellishment!

    Another beautiful card Becca! I totally agree with you about oval dies and the new one from Spellbinders will go to the top of my wish list. I am a great fan of Spellbinders products (have the original Wizard and now the Grand Calibur). I have to say I am not at all surprised by the response you received to the announcement of your new Peg Bow Maker. It’s a wonderful idea and we all appreciate what you’ve done and continue to do – share your wonderful talent with us and at no charge. I have placed my order and look forward to receiving it.

I thought that the floral oval die would need to go on my list when I saw it…but now having seen what you did with it, yup, sigh, it has to go on the list. What I really need to do is win the lottery to feed my Spellbinders and ribbon addictions! (probably work better if I ever bought a ticket! lol) This is a gorgeous card, blue and cream is a favorite color combo. God has blessed you with a marvelous talent, take it and run with it!

    Becca,
    This is a stunning card today, but you are so naughty teasing us, especially me, with those Morrocan Accent dies as I am totalling longing for them, they are gorgeous. Also I think the way you have offset the ovals one on top of the other is lovely and they creates a lacy backdrop for the Twisted Metal diecut.
    The shade of blue you have used here is beautiful, could you tell me the Bazzill shade name please?
    All the best LindaReplyCancel

  • ANN ROBBINSFebruary 1, 2012 - 10:38 pm

    Oh My God, this is georgous. I just got the Grand Calibur two weeks ago on sale at JoAnn’s for $77 plus 30% off the following week on anything even sale items. I went crazy of course as Spellbinder dies were on sale for 30% off, mostly $14.99 less an additional 30% off. I spent $96. Of course, I went home and did the organizational thing with the cd boxes and magnets. The only thing I didn’t do was the labels. I did cut out the cover to show what is in the box so it turned out pretty well. The first of the year I did a big clean up campaign to get all my “stuff” organized. It took two army lockers and I still have a huge plastic tote full of paper. I haven’t started on my car’s trunk but all the stamps are in one box, punches in another, etc. etc. I keep them in the car so when I go to a crop, I have everything anyone there might want or need to use and it’s all in one place. Only bring in what is requested but it is there if needed.ReplyCancel


Hi there blog friends!  I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.  If you ask me, it’s glorious! ! I’ve been holed up inside for the longest time.  This week has been a breath of fresh air to have gotten outside a bit.   I have a new card to share today and again, I think it’s unlike my normal card du jour!   It contains a sneak peek of a new sentiment that will be fully revealed in the Our Daily Bread Designs blog hop on February 1st.  I kept the design simple and did not want to cover the beautiful features of the design paper.  So embossing, rather than cutting, with the die template seemed like my best option.  I used the Our Daily Bread Designs Grunge Cross die cut; it leaves the faint outline of a cross underneath the stamped sentiment.  


It’s a very subtle effect and can be seen much better in real life.  I was able to tilt the card to get a good enough picture for you to see the outline.    I love the effect and it didn’t cover that wonderful design paper.  I finished off with a stacked tiered bow (with no tails) at the bottom of the card.

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs – The Sea
Paper: Recollections, Hot Off the Press, Bazzill
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories: Our Daily Bread Designs – Cross Die Template, EK Success Border Punch, Prima Bling, Satin Ribbon

Hugs to you all, I’ll be back tomorrow!!

    Oh Becca, I love this card and the sentiment is so beautiful and can’t wait to see the whole line.. this new line you have gotten us into I think, is going to be a money breaker.. but it is well worth it.. once we get the stampers we ought to be okay and the sentiments will come slowly.. so many in one package so well worth it and know we can count on you if we have a problem… my problem is I would love to try to incorporate Tilda in one every so often.. Will try to play with that… Probably the birthday ones and the friendship ones… So glad you are you and do the great job you do.. Just love you and am so proud to know you.. Have a great day!!

    Hi: The comments about the bow maker are so numerous that it’s coming across as jumbled on my screen so I want you to know what I posted. Suzanne Runyeon is really the main host on HSN for crafts. I put on her facebook that she needed to look at your work and at the bow maker….she actually got back with me yesterday and said she was having the HSN buyer check it out at CHA….don’t be surprised if you are on TV one of these days….every since QVC gave up on scrapbooking, crafts and sewing, HSN has been the channel that sells a lot of crafting supplies.ReplyCancel
