ODBD Release Day and Blog Hop!

I am sooooo excited I just can't stand it!!! Three fabulous, gorgeous, incredible new sets are available today from Our Daily Bread designs! March is very special since it will be ODBD's 2nd Anniversary this month! Wait until you see what we have planned for mid-month!!! ODBD's anniversary is on the 17th, but there will be fun challenges starting on Saturday, March 13th and running through Wednesday, the 16th. These challenges will be announced on the ODBD blog on Sunday,March 7th so that you can get a head start!!! On the 17th, we will reveal our Special Anniversary sets!

In the mean-time, aren't these sets just totally gorgeous?!









For my release day card, I have combined many fun challenges: Christian Paper Crafts' Fun On Friday Challenge to use flowers; Christian Paper Crafts' Case Artist Saturday challenge...to re-create a card from Marsha's gallery (aka GCgirl67)....I chose this awesome card to case; Christian Paper Crafts' Color Monday challenge to use yellow, white, and one other color; Splitcoast's CAS challenge to make a clean and simple and SQUARE card; and the Inspiration Challenge to choose one of many figure skating outfits for your inspiration......the yellow and white of this duo's outfits just jumped off of the screen! I couldn't find a way to link the photo so I photographed my pc screen! The daffodils were paper-pieced with Basic Grey "June Bug" paper to match the border strip. The satin ribbon is from May Arts. Added Zva pearls for the finishing touch!

Now, on with the Blog Hop!

If you have "hopped" here from Grace's blog, you're in the right place! If you just happened by, you'll need to go to the ODBD blog and start from there. Two lucky winners will receive a $15.00 credit toward ODBD stamps....to be eligible, hop to each DT members blog, collect each gal's secret word(s) and leave a comment. When you're finished, go back to the ODBD blog, leave a message that you have completed the hop; then send an email to Grace and tell the "Special Message" that you collected along the hop. You have until Tuesday, March 2nd, 8:00 EST to complete the requirements. The winner will be announced on Wednesday, March 3rd.

My secret word is: are

Your next stop is Julie's blog.

Thanks for stopping/hopping by today! Good luck on the hop and God Bless!!!!
