My first project features the new 'How Great Thou Art' set, along with the eagle image from 'On Eagles' Wings', and the mountain scene from 'Keep Climbing'. The song lyric and mountains were stamped in black onto a white panel, the mountains and trees were colored with sponge daubers and markers, the clouds were sponged over a scalloped circle. The eagle was stamped on a separate piece of cardstock, colored with sponge daubers and markers, fussy cut, then popped up with foam tape. Paper piercing, metal brads, and linen thread were added as embellishments.
My second sample features two sentiments from 'Shower of Blessings', the ODBD Custom 'Umbrellas' Dies, the ODBD Custom 'Clouds and Raindrops' Dies, and two patterns from the ODBD 'Shabby Rose' Paper Collection. I had fun using the 'Negative Die Cut' technique with the new dies....the umbrella outline and clouds were cut away from the panel, then the die cut umbrella sections were inset into the negative. The 'Rain, Rain, go away' sentiment is actually one stamp, but I stamped one half at a time in order to balance out the card. I guess I was in a 'kraft' mood, since I used kraft cardstock and linen thread on this project as well! :)
Here is a sneak peek I shared this weekend, which features the new ODBD Custom 'Layered Lacey Squares' Dies, four tiny hearts from the ODBD Custom 'Clouds and Raindrops' Dies, and the 'Special Girl' stamp set.
