ODBD Blog.....let us know you have finished!
Below are the stamps and dies I am featuring in my post today, either in my two new creations or sneak peeks from the past few days:
My first sample for today features the "Quilts" stamp set, ODBD Custom Beautiful Borders Dies, and the ODBD Custom Ornate Hearts Dies. The quilt image was stamped in black, colored with purple/yellow/green/peach/pink markers, then the center was cut out with the 2nd smallest die in the ODBD Custom Ornate Hearts Dies set. The heart was made into a five-layer button (see tutorial here). The first two words of the sentiment were stamped on white, then cut out by hand and popped up with foam tape; the 'sew' word was stamped onto the card base through the heart opening (using scratch paper to mask each side). The border frame was created by mitering four borders cut out with the ODBD Custom Beautiful Borders Dies, then sewing embroidery thread through the openings.
My next sample features the image and a sentiment from the "Sewing" set, along with the ODBD Custom Beautiful Borders Dies and ODBD Custom Ornate Hearts Dies once again. The stitched border image and sentiment were stamped in black onto ivory cardstock, then matted with some aida cloth which was stitched with blue embroidery thread. The plaid strip is from some scrap fabric which has been in my stash for many years. The heart die cut through the fabric easily; after adhering it to cardstock and cutting out the holes with a Cropodile, Glossy Accents was added. The same thread used for the stitching was used in the button and also threaded through the border die cut.
Below are three sneak peeks from over the weekend, which were previously blogged. Hold your mouse over each photo to see which products were used.
Thanks for hanging out with us today!!
God bless!!

Angie - WOW!! Your first card is beautiful - I love the frame you created by mitering corners (I'm not sure exactly how you did that but it's FABULOUS!!). And I love your five layer heart button - wow!! All your other samples are also gorgeous - I especially love the beauty and simplicity of your "God bless you' sneak peak card. You've given me so much inspiration today - thank you for that my special friend!
Blessings,

I love the color schemes, layouts and techniques you have used on these cards. All of them are gorgeous. My very favorite card is the one with the plaid. First of all I love plaid. But when I saw that you had used actual fabric and then made the heart button out of it, I was amazed. What a great idea. I love the stitching on the cloth that frames the sentiment panel and runs through the border die cut. Amazing card. All of them are really.
Lovely cards with these new products. I like the colors on the first quilt card.
Wow Angie, you are on a roll with this release. GORGEOUS!! I just love the designs of each of your creations!! The coloring of the quilt in the yellow and blue and the framing with the beautiful borders is perfect on the first!! The second is equally gorgeous with the aida cloth frame and your simply elegant design!! Your shaped card and your use of the doily is so beautiful too!! You are such an inspiration my friend!!
hugs,
Chris

Amazing samples Angie! I do love the quilt and how you colored it though... love those springy colors!

Wow,wow,wow! You outdit yourself, girl! These are beautiful! And I especially love the round card made with the doily die. Amazingly awesome!
You just couldn't stop, could you? So happy for that. Love the little embellishments you made from the stamped image and paper used...
WOW is the word for these. They are all so pretty.
Your creative juices worked overtime with all these gorgeous projects! Especially love the lacy border around the first quilt and that little heart button to match is genius! The CAS design of the second along with the aida cloth is also so clever and stunning! You have a real gift with papercrafting!
