Hi, everyone! Today we are re-visiting this month's awesome releases from Our Daily Bread designs. This has been a super fun release to work with all month! Here are the new and previously released goodies which are featured in my two projects for today's post:
My first project for today is a card which features the new Bible Journaling stamp, 'His Timing'. Since I do not have a journaling Bible yet, I'm enjoying creating bookmarks and cards from these awesome stamps! I paired this stamp with the cool new ODBD Custom Steampunk Gears Dies since they fit the theme of the vintage clocks. I cut several gears out of scratch paper, glued the edges together and made my own stencil in order to sponge the background panel (cut out with the ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies). Then, more gears were cut out of black and copper to place inside the frame cut out with the ODBD Custom Lavish Layers Dies. The gear dies were introduced last week along with the Artistic Outpost new releases. (Psst.....some of you may not know, but Our Daily Bread designs, North Coast Creations, and Artistic Outpost are sister companies. You can order from all three companies in one store, with only one shipping charge....check them out HERE!)
My second project is a "cookie basket" created with the ODBD Custom Bountiful Basket Dies. These little baskets are so fun and easy to make.....you can stamp them, use designer paper, or leave them plain....there are so many ways to decorate them!!! Since I had fresh toll-house cookies for my basket, I chose to use the 'Baking Tag Sentiments' (cut out with the ODBD Custom Pierced Ovals Dies), the Gingham Background stamp for the layers, and red brads to match the heart on the sentiment.

Hi everyone! Welcome to the Our Daily Bread designs bi-weekly "For the Love" Blog Hop, hosted by our fabulous Alumni Team and joined by me and other ODBD sisters! This time around our hop is featured around ODBD's Christmas sets.
If you have hopped here from Betty's amazing blog, you are in the right place....if not, please head over to the ODBD Blog and start from the beginning...we don't want you to miss a thing! Hop to each of the designers' blogs, leave a comment, then let us know at the ODBD blog that you have finished. You have until Wednesday, July 18th, at 6pm EDT, to complete the hop....the winner of a $15.00 gift certificate to the ODBD Store will be announced during the new hop post on the 19th.
For my sample today, I have used the "Baking Tag Set", along with the custom "Tag Die" which cuts out the Tag Stamp perfectly! My tag has three layers....here is how I achieved that: First, I stamped the Tag Stamp, image, and sentiment onto Crumb Cake (Kraft) cardstock, then trimmed around the edge of the stamped line. Second, I used the "Tag Die" to cut out a tag from Very Vanilla cardstock. Thirdly, I traced the outside of the "Tag Die" onto the hunter green cardstock, then cut it out by hand. So, by combining the cutting die, plus a little hand-trimming (which was easy), my tag has two matted layers. (Note: some may ask, so thought I would let you know that these are Toll-House chocolate chip cookies....I follow the recipe on the bag of chips, other than the fact that I use real butter and sea salt....makes a huge difference in the taste! YUM!!)
Now.....on with the hop! Your next stop is with my dear sweet and oh-so-talented DT sister, Sabrina!!! Enjoy the rest of the hop!!!!
Blessings to you,
