Today I’m excited to share a peek at a new release from Our Daily Bread Designs.  The name of this set is I Am The Way and I’m happy to hint that it is an Easter Set!!  I Am the Way is scheduled to be released on Sunday, February 1st.  Stay tuned and visit the rest of the Our Daily Bread Design Team to see additional peeks.

I pulled my very favorite papers for this sample, so if you feel like you’ve seen them before . . . you have!  The base is cream colored cardstock that I’ve layered with a metallic gold and dotted gold paper. On the main panel I’ve cut two frames with the Spellbinders Labels Four Die and crisscrossed them for an interesting squared center frame.  I stamped the sentiment on my ribbon and pulled it through the square in the frame;  the frames are then embellished with small pearls.  Finally the card is topped off with a bow and button.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Our Daily Bread Designs; I Am The Way
Paper:  The Paper Company; Blonde Columns, Dotted Gold, Gold Foil
Ink:  Black Brilliance
Accessories:  Spellbinders Labels Four Die, Ribbon, Pearls, JBH Vintage Button

 
I’m working on a quick tutorial to show you how I made the filigree flower medallion yesterday.  It should be ready soon, so be sure to check back

    Beautiful, as always. Your blog is one of the few I visit several times a week. In addition to having a wonderful creative eye, you manage to make these gorgeous designs with products, tools and supplies that are readily available to the average crafter. I think it spurs creativity in people when they look at one of your designs and think “I have those embossing folders/border punches/stamps/dies. I could do this.” You provide so much inspiration. Thank you.ReplyCancel

  • BarbJanuary 25, 2009 - 8:39 am

    This is such a beautiful, beautiful card. The sentiment stamped on the ribbon reminds me of how you often see the cross in churches drapped in satin as a reminder that Christ is no longer in the tomb but that He is risen. I love the papers you used, the white ribbon and the gold. What perfect colors you chose for an Easter card and the perfect scripture as well. White represents a number of things- the purity of Jesus, forgiveness of our sins as in being washed white as snow, and the gold representing the glory of God. Pearls in a work always make me think of the story in the bible of the merchant who sold all for that one priceless pearl… and to think that Jesus gave His all for us because He considered us to be as priceless pearls. Just an awesome, awesome piece of art Becca. I also love what you did with the frame- gorgeous!

My card today uses the sentiment from another of the newly released sets from Our Daily Bread Designs called He Is Risen.   I pulled the beautiful filigree crosses from this set.  The crosses are mounted on deckled edged cuts from Spellbinders Small Deckled Rectangles and they fit perfectly on Spellbinders Classic Rectangles, Large.  Each cross is smudged with Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink and embellished with a single crystal.  To balance off the upper cross trio I cut one Spellbinders Label Four Die,  outlining the inner rim with a fine line marker and smudging with Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink.  Pretty simple to put together and of course the scripture is a beautiful one.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Our Daily Bread Designs; He is Risen, Cross of Christ
Paper:  Prima, Bazzill
Ink:  Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink
Accessories:  Spellbinders Label Four Die, Spellbinders Small Deckled Rectangles, Spellbinders Classic Rectangles Large, Satin Ribbon, Crystals, Martha Stewart Edge Punch

A special thank you for my readers who are always so sweet!  There is much to come so I encourage you to continue to visit each day.  I did lose a reader today because I post too much – I always, always welcome your individual comments if there is something you feel I can do better.

    Becca. you can’t please all of the people all of the time. Just let it go. That person might have had a bad day, a spat with hubby, cut off in traffic, trouble at work, who knows. This is their loss. All of us appreciate the time that it takes for you to create AND share the details. I actually “stalk” my email until I see one from you!!!
    Your creativity is beyond compare and the choice of colors and embellishments are so, so professional. Keep those posts comming, Girl Friend!!!ReplyCancel

    Becca, I love your work, I look forward to seeing what you post everyday. I think you shouldn’t worry about that one person who choose to not be happy. The bottom line is that you can’t please everybody all the time. The good thing is that you have a huge following that can’t wait to check your site to see what you’ve created for the day. God has given you a gift that you’ve used to declare your love and faith for Him beaufully.You are amazing, don’t change anything unless God instructs you to.

    Becca,

    I have been following your creations for approximately four months; I was so excited when I first saw your beautiful classic designs I couldn’t wait until the next day to see what you revealed.

    I don’t usually post any comments however; as I have been inspired day after day, week after week, and month after month by your consistently outstanding creativity. I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your work and labor of love, and that I feel I’ve stepped up a notch in my cardmaking endeavors in part because of you.

    Your cards are a total delight for my eyes…I enjoy the color combinations, layouts, and overall designs. Awesome! I, also, wanted to let you know how much I enjoy the Amazing Quotes and the Tutorial sections.

    Thanks for sharing some of the gifts our Heavenly Father has given you.

    Warmest Regards, PattyGReplyCancel

    Hi Becca, first let me tell you how very much I enjoy your blog & all you post on it. I look forward to it every day. I wouldn’t care how much you post as I love looking at all you do to inspire us with your talent and creativity. You truely are a gifted person in many ways. Thank you for that.
    Now, onto how I feel about some people…. There will always be someone who visits your blog who doesn’t like it for one thing or another and they are the ones who just like to blog hop and click their mouses fast just to get your card for that day. They just want the design & then on to the next. What they don’t know is just how much they are missing if they don’t read your complete post for that day. So, I say move forward and like you stated…There are many others taking her place. Please keep up the great blogging! You amaze me with your beautiful cards!!!ReplyCancel

    Dear Becca
    I would just like to offer my WOWWWWWWW for such a brilliant website.
    Your work is absolutely stunning. You are one very talented lady.
    Where do you get all your ideas and inspiration, and how do you know what colours go with what.
    I would also like to know what pens you use to colour the inside of the nestabilities. I have tried my copic ciao, sakura glitter, sakura glaze and my marvy le plume II pens without success, and how did you get that fine thin line on labels four, i live by faith. is it possible to do a tutorial?

    Keep up the excellent work, i always look forward to browsing your site to see what marvel you have created.

    Hello!

    I love your website and the creative artwork you do with your cardmaking. I get your regular updates and always enjoy receiving them.

    I have been looking on Our Daily Bread Designs for the stamp set that features the stamp for the card you have on your blog today which you listed as “I am the Way” but have not been able to find it. Is that the name of the stamp set? Or just the beginning of the verse on the stamp? Thank you for your help.

  • SusanJanuary 26, 2009 - 2:29 pm

    I hope this is the right spot – Your bows are fantastic. What’s the big difference between copics and any other marker? I am also having a heck of a time using the new clear stamps. Do you have to do anything to them before the first use? Thanks for all your help.

In addition, any chance of a tutorial on the frameabilities that you used on today’s card? Any trick to it or just use like any other Nestabilities? I too would like to see the answers to some of the other questions if it’s possible. Thank you so much.

    When I purchased this I imagined that the die cut both frames out but this is not the case.

    Becca I would love any tips on cutting out those darn Pendants. I have ruined so many of them because they just don’t cut. I did have success with one but I ran it through the wizard 4 times, used brand new master plates, added shims, took out shims, turned the die several times, and still not much luck. Any tips would be appreciated. I have the purple wizard and have been using it for years.

    A while back I started right at the beginning of your archives and I am slowly getting through them and enjoying all of them, learning much. I have notes alllllllll over my desk. I have started making a list of all your tutorials/videos and the dates. My suggestion is would you make a list on your sidebar of all your tutorials and videos so that when we click on the one we need we can find it right away???? PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
    Thank you for alllllllllll that you have done. Your cards are always beautiful. I get dizzy just trying to remember some of them so I can go down to my “studio” and use some of your ideas.
