Our Daily Bread designs' 2nd Anniversary Special Releases and Blog Hop

Woo Hoo!!! The day is finally here!!! Today is Our Daily Bread designs' 2nd Anniversary! Thanks to all those who helped us to celebrate this week by playing in our special Anniversary challenges and for all of your wonderful comments and support! Congrats to all of the winners so far this week....after today's blog hop there will be a few more!! On Friday, March 19, on the ODBD blog, Grace will recap all of the winners for the hop, the challenges, and the blog candy given away as well.

Kelley started a wonderful tradition last year on ODBD's first anniversary by allowing the Design Team members to each choose their favorite verse and have a stamp made from it. Scripture Collections 1 & Scripture Collection 2 were born. This year Kelley has offered the same for anniversary number 2! Not only do we have two new scripture sets for you to fall in love with, Scripture Collections 3 & 4, but Kelley is also releasing two awesome border sets....perfect for verses and sentiments of any shape and size!!! Check them all out below!!!





This year I am blessed to say that I am a part of this wonderful Design Team and have chosen my favorite verse from the book of Mark. I have made two samples using my verse, from Scripture Collection 3, plus two stamps from the Vine Borders sets....two totally different looks! My first card is based on Mercy's Tuesday Sketch and Betty's Color Challenge from Splitcoast to use Razzleberry, Orchid, and Olive, plus swirls for dessert.....a perfect match for this designer paper from Prima, called "Raspberry Pastures". I have combined Spellbinders Labels 3, the cut-out frame from Vine Borders, and Oval Nestabilities. Finished with Zva pearls, May Arts Satin Ribbon (tied with a Bow-Easy), and lots of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Mist.


My second card was very simple to make. I stamped the border and verse directly on the designer paper from Memory Box, called "Spearmint". Added paper piercing, sponging, some Basic Grey Opaline Pearls, satin ribbon, and Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Mist. This design was based on the CPS sketch this week.


And now......on to the BLOG HOP!!!!

If you have stopped by here by chance, please head over to the ODBD blog so that you can start at the beginning.....there are secret letters to collect along the way, so you don't want to miss any stops!

We are all so thankful to Kelley for starting this wonderful business and mission.....to provide us all, team and clients alike, with the most inspirational Christian stamps and products, so that we may glorify our God while blessing others with our craft.

Kelley has generously offered to give 3 lucky winners their choice of one of these new Anniversary sets!!! To qualify to win, you must hop from first to last blog while collecting each secret letter in order; leave a comment on each designer's blog; return to the ODBD blog and leave a comment that you have visited all of the blogs; email the secret message to Grace.
