Drum Lever Card

By KariV on September 26, 2018 in Paper Crafting

Hello there! I have another fun Lever Card using the drum stamp from this stamp set.

I love this Lever Card and the Lever Card Layers, which allows you to easily cut patterned paper to make layers on your card.

I used the new papers from Our Daily Bread Designs called Notable Notes paper pad. So many fun papers to choose from in this set!

That’s all for me today. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Musical Piano cards

By KariV on September 21, 2018 in Paper Crafting

Hello there! Today I have some fun Musical Piano cards for you. I cannot get enough of this Piano Die from Our Daily Bread Designs.

I’ve already shared some black glossy piano cards, so today I thought I’d share some other colors. First up is this cream piano, complete with a saxophone accompaniment!

I gold embossed that saxophone on the piano and added some musical notes. To add more color, I ink blended the background with Distress Oxide over this music stamp.

Next, I have this wood grain piano with lots of colors!

This is such a fun set…can you imagine what colors of pianos you can make?! I saw a beautiful powder blue piano on google, and even a RED piano! And some with rainbow colored piano keys!

For some small cards, I cut down some cards to a square 4 1/4″ and just used the keyboards on these.

But even though I didn’t use the top portion (lid) of the grand piano die….I still used it as a STENCIL to get those great lines on the cards! Check out this short video I posted on Instagram to see what I mean here.

I hope you enjoyed these projects today. Thanks so much for stopping by!

A Look Back at Our Daily Bread Designs September Release

By KariV on September 14, 2018 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m excited to share more guitar projects with you. I have found that I love to design and create GUITARS with this new die from Our Daily Bread Designs! However, I couldn’t find any fire paper that was small enough to look right on these guitars. Did I let that stop me? NO! I just created my own!

I really wanted to have a nice little giveaway treat with these guitars, so I paired them with the Gable Box Die to make these for my musical nephews:

For this one I created a tag and stamped “You Rock” from this set on the inside.

Aren’t they fun? My idea was to have a dark grey to light grey Ombre guitar on this one, but you could really use any color you like! I added some glitter pen accents on the fire and around the edge of the guitar and that makes it really pop!

I also created a VIDEO to show you how easy it is to design your own fire design on a guitar with markers, watch it below or on YouTube:

These guitars also make such cute cards. I’ve shared a few on previous blog posts, but had to share one today with fire! This one is a red guitar and the fire is just on the bottom of the guitar, then I added a shiny black guitar pick guard:

I added more dimension to this guitar by cutting out the strut center (from a different die cut guitar) and popping it up with foam tape. Then I created layers on the card using foam tape as well. That paper is some of my favorite from the new Notable Notes Paper Pad.

My last project features a stamp set that I also completely adore: called Marvelous Things. The instruments are made up of music notes!

I stamped these in three different colors of Distress Oxide Inks, and used metallic embossing powder for the sentiment and for the bottom edge of the card.

I hope you enjoyed these projects today! Thanks so much for stopping by. If you give this a try, please let me know…I’d love to see your designs!

September Release for Our Daily Bread Designs

By KariV on September 1, 2018 in Paper Crafting

Hello! I am excited to show you a sampling of the September new release from Our Daily Bread Designs! This month it’s all about music, instruments, and notes!

I was so happy to see an awesome GUITAR die! Not many people know this about me…but I used to play the guitar (both electric and acoustic), and this release has inspired me greatly to pick it up again.

Take a look at this beauty:

I used a bit of foil paper on the body of that first guitar, and also on the accents of the second and third guitar. Can I just tell you…foil paper looks AMAZING on these dies!! My electric guitar is black glossy and so that is what I really wanted to create at first. But it’s so fun to create so many color options. The sentiment is from “Jesus Rocks” stamp set.

Another really great set to use glossy black paper is on the Piano Die. Take a look at my Glossy Black Lacquer piano:

Believe me when I say….in real life this glossy paper looks AWESOME! I wish I could properly capture it in a photo to show you. I popped up the top glossy black piece with fun foam to give it some dimension.

This piano die comes in three pieces, so you can layer them up…the black keys on top of the white keys, the piano top over them all. I cannot wait to make a shaped card with this die. The background on this card is from a stamp set called “Victory in Jesus” and I stamped it in Distress Oxide ink in Peacock Feathers.

Here is another piano I created using the piano die:

This one is covered in the music notes, which I stamped in black and embossed with clear embossing powder. I used the new paper pad (here) for the background, and the alphabet flags for the banner!

Here’s the sentiment I used on the inside:

I love this sentiment! It comes from the Marvelous Things set.

The last card I have to share today highlights the Musical background coverplate die and Musical Notes dies:

The treble clef is such a great size die! I love it paired with the musical notes background.

I hope you enjoyed a peek at the new release today. To see the entire new release and more inspiration, visit the Our Daily Bread Designs post here. And for a quick link to all the new products, click here.

Get Well Soon Bandages

By KariV on August 17, 2018 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m showcasing the bandage dies from Our Daily Bread Designs. I love these bandage dies…when you die cut them and then emboss them, they look like real bandages!

Here I used kraft paper to cut and emboss the bandages:

The “Ouch” sentiment is from the Get Well Wishes stamp set. (This stamp set is just full of great wishes!) I added some glitter hearts in rainbow colors to match the colors of sentiments. The heart die cut is from this set.

My next card, I die cut the bandage from white paper and then used my Copics in E30 colors to color them up. I love this look…I really feel like they look like the real bandages!

The stethoscope and doctor bag dies are now some of my favorites! I did use a bit of silver embossing powder on that stethoscope to give it a metallic look.

The plaid paper is from the Boho Bolds paper pad and I used this paper for the Get Well Wishes die, too! That is some good looking plaid… Here’s a little close up:

I think this Get Well Soon die is such a great size! When you make a landscape card (like this one), it will all fit on an A2 size card (4.25″ x 5.5″).

When you want to create a portrait card, the Get Well Soon dies will also fit using only the first two words:

I hope you enjoyed this look at these dies from Our Daily Bread Designs. For more inspiration from the design team, be sure to visit the Our Daily Bread Designs blog! Thanks for stopping by.
