Looking Back at the ODBD August Release

Good morning!  

Thank you for joining us, as we look back at the fabulous 

ODBD August Release!

I absolutely love this Birdhouse set!  So fun to color!  I colored the image with copics to match the Birthday Brights papers.  Then I cut a frame with the Square dies and the Pierced Square dies.  I used the Pennant Row die along with the negative piece from cutting the Fence.  I attached the pennants with three of the tiny bows from the Windowsill Candles dies.  And I added a Bitty Border to the fence.  The sentiment is cut out with one of the Lavish Layers dies.

Here are the ODBD supplies I used for this card:

ODBD Birdhouse	Lavish Layers Dies	ODBD Custom Pierced Squares Dies

Summer Flowers

 Good morning!  

This is for the Ways to Use It Challenge at Splitcoast 

today to make a summer card.

This beautiful flower image is from and ODBD set called Sweet as Perfume.  I colored it with copics and then cut it out using the out of the box technique.  I love the pretty summery yellow papers!

Watercolor Lifting Technique Sympathy Card

 Monday's Technique Lover's Challenge on Splitcoast was Watercolor Lifting.  

 have been wanting to give it a try, so here is my first attempt.  

I used distress markers to scribble the watercolor paper and then used water with a brush to smoosh the colors together.  Then I clear embossed the little flowers and butterflies from the new ODBD set called Vintage Bird Labels.  Then I smooshed the colors some more with water to get this final result.  Kinda cool to have the embossed images darker than the rest of the strip!  I glued this strip down to a piece of Birthday Brights paper and cut the panel out with a Pierced Rectangle.  The stamped 'WITH' and the die cut word 'Sympathy' are from the new With Sympathy stamp/die duo set.  I added a Bitty Border to complete this CAS card!

Here are the ODBD supplies I used for this card:

ODBD With Sympathy Stamp/Die Duos

Pierced Rectangles Dies

ODBD Bitty Borders Dies

For You

Good morning!  

I woke up early so decided to play in the Sketch Challenge at SCS.   

I love this You Bless Me So stamp/die duo set that was released in June! 

 It is so fun to color and makes a sweet card!

I used copics to color the image to match the colors in the Birthday Brights and Birthday Bash Paper Collections.   I cut the designer papers with a Double Stitched Rectangle die and a Pierced Rectangle die.  I used Pierced Squares, Pierced Circles and the scalloped circle from Recipe Card and Tags.  I have fallen in love with the Bitty Borders dies and use them frequently!  Just too sweet!

I added ribbon, sequins and Wink of Stella to complete the card.

Here are the supplies I used today:

ODBD You Bless Me So	ODBD Birthday Bash Paper Collection	ODBD Birthday Brights Paper Collection	Pierced Circles Dies
ODBD Custom Pierced Squares Dies	Pierced Rectangles Dies	Double Stitched Rectangles Dies	ODBD Bitty Borders Dies

Thanks for stopping by! 

Have a Happy Wednesday!

Heartfelt Sympathy

 Happy Saturday y'all!  

I made this card today using the Inspiration Challenge of Plaster Art at SCS.  I also combined this challenge with a Dare to Get Dirty Challenge!  Don't know what that is about?  You have to be a SCS Fan Club member to play!  Click HERE to read about it! 

The With Sympathy stamp/die duo is new from ODBD this month.  I used the Log Cabin Quilt Die to cut out the stamped sentiment.  I cut out a stencil with the Boho Background die and used that to add texture paste for my background.  Then I cut out Bitty Blossoms, Pretty Posies, and a Fancy Foliage.  I used a stylus on the flowers and added Pan Pastels to them.  I attached everything together and then made a frame with Pierced Rectangles.

Here are the ODBD supplies I used today:

ODBD With Sympathy Stamp/Die Duos	Pierced Rectangles Dies	Boho Background Die	Bitty Blossoms Die
Pretty Posies Dies	Fancy Foliage Dies	Log Cabin Quilt Die
