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 launched a Customer’s Favorite Contest, and now it’s time to reveal the winners.  Welcome two new sets called Scripture Series 2 and Scrolly Borders.  For the card made using the two sets I created a medallion with Spellbinders Labels Twenty Three and layered on top Spellbinders Lacey Ovals and Spellbinders Classic Ovals LG.  On the side I layered Spellbinders Classic Scallops with lace and finished up with Spellbinders Lace Doily Accents.

The design team got together and cooked up some wonderful creations to celebrate the new sets and the customers that shared their Favorite.  The cards are breathtaking – I hope you’ll pop in and see what the other DT members created.  To see the full release, as well as samples made by the winners of the contest whose verses were chosen, and to hear their stories of why they chose the verse they did, please visit the Our Daily Bread designs Blog!  There’s special incentive to have a look around – there are THREE $20.00 Gift Certificate prizes hidden amongst the design team members that can be won by leaving a comment on their blog! Winners will be announced Wednesday, August 17, on the ODBD blog so be sure to check back!
SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs – Scripture Series 2, Scrolly Borders
Paper: My Minds Eye – Lost and Found, Bazzill
Ink: Antique Linen Distress Ink, Vintage Photo Distress Ink, Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories: Spellbinders Lacey Ovals, Spellbinders Classic Scallops, Spellbinders Classic Ovals LG, Spellbinders Labels Twenty Three, Spellbinders Lace Doily Accents, Paper Studio Flower Brad, Pearls, Seam Binding, Lace

Big hugs to all my readers!!  Your words were strong, comforting and encouraging.  I’ll let you know how it turns out!!  In the meantime, thanks so much for lifting me up.  I’m in awe of your ever flowing kindness!!  In the meantime check out all the beautiful cards the ODBD DT have ready today!

    Becca,
    If your physician is contracted with the carrier they cannot bill you if they did not file in a timely manner. If I were you, I would not pay this. You can get your insurance company involved if they bill you. They can talk to you if you present your executor information.

    A beautiful card to go with a wonderful verse that should sustain each one of us should we choose to believe in its Truth. Becca, you have such talent. Sometimes artists are so good and unique in their style that their work gets “trademarked” in a way. McTavishing for a free motion quilting stlye, is an example. I think your cards have been “BeccaRized” I can see your style in each and every one, yet each one is unique into itself. Thanks for inspiring us!ReplyCancel

    Becca, I absolutely LOVE your site! I’ve learned so much from you, and I want to thank you for sharing all of your ideas and creations. Now, I have a question, which I’m sure that you can answer. I have the Big Kick Sizzix, as well as the extensions for example: Tim Holtz long 12″ dies, and also for the Sizzix I have the wide/long one for their envelopes, etc. However, have never experienced a problem with using the Spellbinders dies until now: I’m trying to cut their Borderabilities Grand die and nothing I’ve tried will pass through the Big Kick to cut it. Must I now purchase the Spellbinder’s die cutting equipment just for this die? Thanks so much.ReplyCancel

  • Kelly ClarkAugust 31, 2011 - 6:23 pm

    You never fail to amaze me with your designs. They are made with so much love and attention to detail.ReplyCancel

Thank you so much for stopping by friends!  Yesterday so many of you left comments as a testimony, of a friend or a loved one stricken with cancer.  My heart goes out to you, God bless you!  It seems as though no one is untouched by this dreadful disease.  I’m so proud to participate with JustRite Stampers in JustRite Crafting for a Cause.

JustRite Crafting For a Cause

 In an effort to find an early diagnostic test or screening tool for Ovarian Cancer, JustRite Crafting For a Cause will donate 20% of the sales from Be Strong and Courage and Strength in 2011 to Ovarian Cancer Research.  To learn more about the symptoms of this “silent killer “ visit www.OvarianCancer.org.

The second of the two Crafting for a Cause sets, that I’m showing today is called Be Strong.  As I mentioned yesterday, it is JustRite’s first set of clear stamps.  This set, like most you’ve seen over the past years was designed by JustRite’s stamp illustrator, Amy Tedder.  This cause is near and dear to her heart as she is a six year Ovarian Cancer survivor.  I hope you’ll take a second and read her story HERE.

I designed a card today around the teal ribbon which corresponds with ovarian cancer.   One of my favorite new dies is Spellbinders Postage Stamp; used along with Spellbinders Classic Squares LG, I think it makes such a unique frame.  I know I’ll get emails about this, so I’ll whisper what I did if you promise not to tell, lol!  The frilly, lacey die inside the postage stamp is really Spellbinders Holly Motif – I simply cut off the small holly leaves to show you that it’s going to be a dazzling holiday die cut but with use of your handy, dandy exacto knife you’ll be able to to put it other uses too.  On top of those two elements I cut/embossed Spellbinders Classic Ovals LG for my focal stamped element.  Along the bottom of the card I had what I thought to be an unlikely pairing however once they were cut (using Spellbinders Classic Scallop and Classic Petal Edgeabilities) I simply loved the combination.  Although I already had a lot of edge treatments, I couldn’t resist one more so I added in a panel of scallops that seemed like a great place to lay a row of lace.  Whew!!  Although today I used teal and yesterday pink, take a gander at all the list of ribbon colors below

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: JustRite Stampers – Be Strong
Paper: The Girls Paperie, The Paper Company, Pink Paislee
Ink: Colorbox Chalk Ink – Prussian Blue, Vintage Photo Distress Ink
Accessories: Spellbinders Holly Motif, Spellbinders Postage Stamps, Spellbinders Classic Scallop Edgeabilities, Spellbinder Classic Petal Edgeabilities, Spellbinders Classic Squares LG, Spellbinders Classic Ovals LG, Eggshell seam binding, lace, pearls,

Thanks so much for stopping by!!  I have some Becca Bits in the works so stop by again soon.  In the meantime, please stop by and see what the rest of the Design Team have created!

    What a wonderful set to celebrate survivors and those battling this terrible disease! It seems so many of us know someone dealing with cancer. In fact there is one couple in my church who are both battling different forms of cancer currently. I lost my father in 1994 to lung cancer. So many things have changed/advanced since that time. It is my sincere prayer that one day we will find the cure for cancer. In my father’s case I know he has gone on and has a wonderful cancer free “new body.” Thanks so much for sharing your creative talents Becca! You never cease to inspire and motivate!

    My sister has a very rare form of cancer called Carcinoid. Their color, or colors are Zebra stripes. She wears one of those rubbery bracelets with the Zebra stripes on it. They chose that for their emblem because no two carcinoid patients are exactly alike… just like Zebras. Perhaps your contact could add that to their list to raise awareness for this always fatal form of cancer. Chemo and radiation are not effective against it and the medication is not approved by insurance companies because it is so rare, yet it costs about $2000 a month. Thank God they have a small support group so they don’t think they are crazy as well as very ill. It took my sister many painful years to get a proper diagnosis (which is usually the case) and when she did they had to remove one lung. Since their is no cure, the averagel lifespan of a Carcinoid patient, once diagnosed, is seven years. Thank you for being part of this awareness… now you are even more aware.ReplyCancel

    Thank you for sharing this – Little did I know that even prostate cancer had a ribbon. My DH is scheduled for an operation next month and the waiting is SOOO difficult. Luckily he should have been diagnosed early – as he had NO idea and no symptoms – but was caught in a blood test screening. In some trange way this made it even more difficult to grasp that he was ill, as he feels no different today than the day before all the tests – apart from all the worrying and thinking that is….. We work hard on thinking positive thoughts and believing that the doctors will be able to remove it – as it has not yet spread outside the prostate gland. FIngers crossed and prayers said we look forward to good news in early September. As you write above – seems like everyone is affected by cancer !!!ReplyCancel

    What a gorgeous card for a wonderful cause. I did not know that there were ribbons for so many different cancers. I guess I need to get a green one, I had kidney cancer twice. I had a whole kidney removed and part of the other one removed also. I need a ribbon of honor as a replacement. I am cancer free, thank you God. One of my best friends just found out that her son has a tumor that is all over his brain. He desperately needs prayer. he needs a miracle in a bad way. This is indeed an atrocious disease that so many people are touched by. We need awareness anywhere we can find it. Thank you Just Right, I am going to purchase for the cause.ReplyCancel

    It was love at first sight when I saw your most recent creation. The whole effect is stunning but it’s the layering with the holly accents that just knocks my socks off. You sure have the touch, the vision, my blog-friend.

    Heartbreaking to hear the stories of so many afflicted with this cruel illness. Great strides have been made in research, but it is of little comfort to those suffering or the loved ones of those who lost their battle. Every September, we walk in the Terry Fox Run to raise funds for cancer research. What we raise is less than a drop in the ocean. When all the little drops are put together, it becomes a force. Every day, we inch closer to a full cure.ReplyCancel

    Your card is soooooooo gorgeous Becca. I really love, how you´ve done all these different layers on it, and the stamp is awesome, and for such a wonderful cause. I´m definately going to order this set, as a cure can´t be found fast enough, so all the help they can have is wonderful. My dad is one of 12 siblings, of which the 8 is now dead from intestine cancer, and 2 more has been throug surgery too. My mum died of loungecancer 3 years ago just before christmas, and my mother in law from stomack cancer 10 years ago, and 2 sister in laws havve had surgery for breastcancer, and I´ve had cellchanges myself twice the last 5 years, so I´m going to an anual control too, so we sure have had our share of cancer in my family. So I can´t plead hard enough, that people will support such a worthy case here, and I´m so grateful to both you and Justd Rite for doing such an awesome work here to get the message out and all your wonderful support. Thanks so very much to both of you for what you´re doing. It´s truely amazing, and your card here is just such a stunning creation to show this of. I just love it.ReplyCancel

    Such important images and such a lovely card. My dad died of Mesothelioma– also an incurable cancer. He was diagnosed and within 3 1/2 weeks, he had passed. He and my mom missed their 50th by less than 2 months. I get really angry often when I see ads on tv for attorneys offering their “services” for victims of this cancer. I would so prefer that any money available go to further research for a cure. When we first heard the word cancer, I had hope because there are so many positive results these days. Learning there was no chance of a cure was so hard. I have lost 2 other friends to incurable cancers. Any money for research to help save lives is so critical. Thanks for the awareness.ReplyCancel

Maybe I have been following you long enough that I am starting to think like you do. This is one of my favorite cards. Love the design, and just love this stamp set. It is beautiful. I think we all know someone that has been diagnosed with this dreadful desease unfortunately.

After having a double mastectemy for breast cancer and then have my right kidney removed for renal cell carcinoma I am now going in to have a lung biopsy for a tumor on the left lung this coming week. So far I am doing great ‘Praise the Lord’. Maybe this time they will find it to be benign. My heart goes out to all those who are battling ovarian cancer. I pray for cures for all these cancers.

    Hi Becca, as always another beautiful creation and for such a great cause. I lost my grandmother on Canadian boxing day (Dec. 26, 1988) of ovarian cancer. She lived for Christmas so I know the lord let her be with us for one more, she was diagnosed Christmas Eve of same yr and given 8 to 10 wks I believe it was, I still miss her alot. My grandfather died of cancer that was everywhere less than a yr after he had a cancerous mole removed from his back in 2006. He was my best friend and I miss him daily. Father in law was never sick a day in the 26 yrs I knew him, suddenly he fell ill and was gone in 5 months with brain, lung and bone cancer. This is just the tip of the iceburg for me, the people nearest and dearest that I have lost to this horrid disease. I pray to god something will be done to stop cancer in its tracks and sooner than later. God bless everyone that has been touched by cancer in one way or another and ty Becca and JustRite for supporting a cause that is so devastatingly wide spread.

    I was lucky when I found my ovarian cancer early, I had 3 people in my family that have had ovarian or breast cancer, I myself had 3 surgeries for benign cyst and fibroid tumors, but it scared me so I insisted on a BRCA test and an internal ultrasound of my ovaries when doctors told me I needed a 4th surgery, the BRCA came back abnormal and when I went for my last surgery they told me I was in the earliest stage of cancer, I was 40 and had to have a full hysterectomy, my insurance at first would not pay for the test and it was about 3000 that I didnt have, but my new doctor fought for me and ended up getting it covered, please everyone if in your mind you think something is not right do not let a doctor put you aside, and find one that will fight for you.

    My on my, it is so sad to read all the heart breaking situations people have gone through. I cling to the knowledge that this world is just a stop over and we all have to pass through death’s door to reach the gates of Heaven. Still, it is not easy for us as we are left behind with our memories of those we miss. I have lost friends and family to this nasty disease. I think of them often and with much love. I think the best thing we should do is pray . Think about it, then talk to God. He will hear us and answer in His perfect way. That’s the thing, sometimes His perfect answer is not what we want to hear but it is His answer and it is perfect. Sometimes it is just time to go home…… God bless to all……DeniceReplyCancel

Hi there friends, whoa today was an adventure for me.  This week I’ve managed to knock off quite a few things I’ve been avoiding.  I knew when the time came, I would have a go at them – even if reluctantly.  Two brown widows and 5 snakes later, I managed to get my lawn mowed.  Who knew, and we don’t live in the country!!   These were all within the first 15 minutes and all in the front part of the yard.  Well actually after I saw the last snake, I hung it up and called my daughter but at least it is done, right?  The guy who used to mow the yard just quit coming (what economy is he living in, right?)      At any rate, (although it took me alllllllll day) my triumph today was going in the shed which hasn’t been opened for more than nine months, getting the lawn mower out and getting the battery charge.  We had a spider colony breeding in there, but I  got ’em.  Oh so glad it’s done!! Well I bet you are wondering who won the goodies I brought back from CHA – well, here they are!!

Ladies, reach out to me through the contact tab at the top of my page and let me know your mailing addresses within the next 48 hours.  I’ll get these out in my next post office run.  After 48 hours however, I’ll pick a new name :-)

Blessings all!!  See you tomorrow!

    I can so relate to you. 7 yrs ago when my husband John died, I had never been on a lawn mower – he always handled that stuff. After sitting on it for 45 min – trying to figure out how to start the darn thing – I just sat and cried and then I got mad. I live in the middle of 5 acres, so here I am crying and screaming , this is your fault John if you had just taught me how to do this. I mean I was having a full-blown meltdown. I mashed my foot hard on the pedal – and it engaged and started. lol then all I could do was laugh. The next Summer, I found a guy to cut the grass. I, too, had a guy just quit cutting my grass this Summer – Praise God , He sent me someone from my church to fill the gap. I’ll be praying He sends someone for you too. Next time I’ll have to tell you my bat story. .. love yaReplyCancel

    Have a wonderful weekend.ReplyCancel

    Congrats to the winners. I too have to battle the spiders and snakes. Every time I close my eyes I see the huge one laying next to my sandal shod foot (wonder I didn’t step on it) It was so big I never saw its end, but of course I didn’t stay around long either. We see some every year, mostly not poisonous, but I have stepped over the bad kind a time or two. Even the harmless ones still scare the daylights out of me. I haven’t ventured out much since that episode, but it’s so hot right now, the snakes are probably hiding too.ReplyCancel

    Congrats ladies!! But Becca, you are brave. I would have been out of there at the first snake! Probably never to walk on the grass again.ReplyCancel

    Wow, Becca, you are so brave…all spiders and snakes scare the you-know-what outta me. My son was bitten by a brown several years ago..not a pretty event at all. Kudos for getting it all done!ReplyCancel
