With Every Beat of My Heart

By KariV on August 24, 2018 in Paper Crafting

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by. Today I have a review of some of my very favorite stamps and dies from the August Release with Our Daily Bread Designs.

First I have this heartbeat card that shows you can use the King of My Heart Stamp/Die duo for more than just get well cards! These are fun for Anniversary, Love You cards, Valentine cards, or even Thinking of You cards. There are some great sentiments like: “Heartfelt thanks for all you do,” “You make my heart beat,” and “King of my heart!” Here I used another one of my favorite sentiments from the set:

I used red glitter paper for the frame and for the dies. The beautiful part is that this die also cuts out hearts you can use for decoration on your card (which I did here). Love that.

The sentiment is also from the same set. I love a good Stamp/Die duo! I masked off a portion of the sentiment and stamped in red, then stamped the rest of it in black.

The next card shows more of the get well dies, and you will see why they are my favorites! I used similar products for both of these cards:

The Bandages Dies, Doctor bag Die, and Stethoscope Die are among my favorites! So much fun to color or just die cut and emboss. Here I used kraft paper on those bandages, but I have also colored them up with Copic markers with fantastic results (like in the card below).

Here I added a portion of the Nurse Cap die (red cross) for a small element in the background as a recurring design. I love using small elements for adding interest to a background!

I used silver embossing powder to the stethoscope to add that metallic feeling…and also added a little to the doctor bag, too. The sentiments on both of these cards are from Get Well Wishes Stamp set.

August Release with Our Daily Bread Designs

By KariV on August 1, 2018 in Paper Crafting

Hello and welcome to a preview of some of the August new release items for Our Daily Bread Designs! This release is a beautiful assortment of get well wishes and products to show gratitude for our dentists, nurses, doctors, and such. I have a few projects to share highlighting some of the new release!

First is this unique set called King of My Heart. It is a stamp AND die set, with lots of great sentiments.

The die is that unique heartbeat…and here I cut it with black paper, and then dry embossed it multiple times over the white background. The stethoscope is a separate die, which I cut and colored with copics. If you know a nurse or doctor, this set is perfect!

Next is another great die…it’s called Bandages, and there are a variety of sizes and shapes to choose from. I am showing just one of the bandages, which I cut out of white paper and then colored with Copics in E30, E31, and E33. I added a glitter heart that I cut with the King Of My Heart die. I used the Lever Card die (from a previous release) to make a fun, interactive card for this one.

and here’s the inside:

The Get Well Soon sentiment is just the right size!

My last card today showcases the new Happy Smiles Stamp/Die duo set and Doctor Bag die. I am absolutely in love with these sets! Just look how cute that little smiling tooth is holding his toothbrush!!

I used the Sunburst Background die to create a stencil on the background with Distress Oxide ink in Salty Ocean. I used Copics on the tooth and to add some shadowing on the Doctor’s Bag.

For more inspiration and to see the whole release, be sure to visit the Our Daily Bread Design New Release blog post here and take a look at all the designer’s projects!

I hope you enjoyed a small look at some of these new products. I’ll have more to share next week!

June Release for Our Daily Bread Designs

By KariV on June 1, 2018 in Paper Crafting

Happy June! Today is a very special day because it’s the new JUNE 2018 Release for Our Daily Bread Designs! Today I have three projects to share with you.

I’m using affiliate links when possible, at no additional cost to you. Thank you for supporting my blog!

The first uses two brand new products that I love: Sister in Christ stamp set and Flourishy Frame Die set.

Aren’t they just beautiful? I added a few sequins and Jewel Nuvo drops to add some fun! For the background, I masked the edges of the die cut square and then inked on Distress Inks in Picked Raspberry, Cracked Pistachio, and Evergreen Bough. Then, I stamped the image over the top in my favorite crisp, dark black ink.

The next two projects use the new God’s Beauty Coloring Pages. These pages are sized at 3.5 in x 4.75 in, so they will easily fit on an A2 size card.

I added some glitter drops and Nuvo Jewel drops for fun. This page I colored with Copics, and as we all might know, the reds/oranges have a tendency to bleed…so I did have a bit of a problem with bleeding on the flower itself. But I found that the paper was nice and smooth. I added just a touch of sparkle in the middle of the flowers and on the butterflies.

On my second panel I used my favorite Prismacolor colored pencils on the coloring page. At the time of posting this, there is an amazing sale on these pencils at Amazon here! (A WAYYYYYY better deal than I got when I bought my set. Lol.)

For this card, I colored up the fish coloring page and popped up a turtle on the top for a dimensional look! The sentiments on both cards are from the Inspiration Words Die. I partially inked the die cut word using Distress Inks in Scattered Straw (on the fish card) and Abandoned Coral (on the poppy card). I’ve been collecting the Mini Distress Inks lately so I can keep even more colors organized in my craft room!
