Well, not only am I excited about a brand new year, but you know what the 1st of each month means at Our Daily Bread designs......brand new releases....yay!!!! My goodness, this month Kelley has gone waaaaay overboard! Check out the New Release Post here to see three new stamp sets, a single butterfly stamp with matching cutting die, two background stamps, and an embossing plate!
My sample for today features the new "Faith" set, designed by Dina Kowal at DK Designs. The butterfly and branches image was stamped (and panels stenciled) in Cameo Coral and overstamped with Stazon Timber Brown to match the Basic Grey "Curio" designer paper, one of my new faves!
Most of the designs in the 6 x 6 "Curio" pad have very dark brown borders. Since my card is 5-1/2" square, the designer paper had to be trimmed from two edges. To keep the dark border look, I sponged Stazon Timber Brown on the cut edges, using a scratch paper mask. The designer paper "tidbit" was sponged in the same way and adhered to the inside panel for added decoration.
The pearls and pearl brads are by Zva Creative, the ivory satin and watermelon ribbon are both from May Arts, the bow was tied with a Bow Easy, the frames are Spellbinders Lacey Squares and Lacey Circles, and there are several sprays of "Pearl" Glimmer Mist for a shimmery finish.
Now....the moment you've been waiting for.....
Welcome to the "Leap of Faith" blog hop by Our Daily Bread designs! You are going to flip out when you see the beautiful creations from my fellow Breadsticks today!!

What a great card. These new butterfly stamps will be so very versatile.
Very pretty card! I like the use of a word AND phrase, both on the front. Also like seeing part of a image used as a background and going off the paper -- good reminder to me to look at my stamps in different ways!
I am farley new to card making and stamping; I love all the different techniques, colors and stamps! There are so many different stamps I would love to own, and ODBD stamps support my faith and allow me to share it with those I send cards to. I need a lot of different supplies but one day at a time I will be able to accomplish getting them so I can also make wonderful creative cards.
Beautiful colors and wonderful layout. I like your choice of background design paper. Of course, there's nothing I don't like about it :)
