Entries for the prize must be submitted by Thursday, May 6. One random winner will be chosen and announced next Saturday. While it is not required to use Our Daily Bread Designs images and sentiments on your creations, we would love to see them if you have them.

Please see ODBD's blog for all the details! 

Here is my creation.

The beautiful image is from ODBD's Mom! It was stamped, colored using reinkers, clear embossed, cut out and popped up! The sentiment was stamped on Spellbinder's die cut Lattice Pendant! The background was cuttlebugged using a Sizziz folder! Tiny green zva pearls were added to the pendant!

Please check out what the other ODBD challenge team has created!

Good morning everyone!


It is time for ODBD's Stamping In Time! This week we have a challenge host, Marcelle Schauer. Marcelle is giving us challenge choices! We can choose either to use brads or colored pencils. Now, if you are feeling a little adventurous, you can do both! Both are items that you may not  use very often. So we hope you will dig them out and play along!

Please see ODBD's Blog for all the details!

Here is my creation for todays SNTODBD8 Challenge!



The images are ODBD's With Heartfelt Sympathy and With Deepest Sympathy! I colored them using Prisma Colored Pencils and Oderless Mineral Spirits!  The wood frame was cut using Spellbinders Nestibillities using Real Wood Paper. The bottom layer was cuttlebugged and then sanded!

For more inspiration, please check out the other designer’s blogs to see what they created with the brads and/or pencil choice challenge!

Happy monday everyone!

This is a card I did for todays Tech Lovers Challenge on SCS!


Vicki challenged us to use the piercing tech on our creation!

All the images are from Rubbernecker's Weeds ! The thistles were colored using markers (SU regal rose and edged with real red and old olive for the stems), spritzed with a very fine mist of water and stamped. I then used a versamark pen and fine embossing powder to emboss them! The sky was brayered using bashful blue! I sponged the sea line (brilliant blue) and the greenery (always artichoke, cert celery and barely banana)!

Thanks for stopping by! Hope you have a marvelous day!

Good morning everyone!

This week the ODBD Challenge Team is challenging you to "Recycle". Since this month is earth day  the team thought we would challenge you to recycle. You can use a recycled item on your creation (sponging bubble wrap, foil embossing) or use it for a technique to create your card or project!

To make the challenge even more fun, ODBD will be giving out a prize, a $15 gift certificate to be used toward stamps at the Our Daily Bread Designs store!! Entries for the prize must be submitted by Thursday, April 22. One random winner will be chosen and announced next Saturday. While it is not required to use Our Daily Bread Designs images and sentiments on your creations, we would love to see them if you have them!

Here is my creation for todays challenge!

The Scripture from ODBD's Scriptures four set was stamped then cut out and embossed using Spellbinders Nestibillities! The larger die cut is from a recycled tissue box. The background was embossed using a Sizzix E/F and the cuttlebug. Ziva pearls were added! The dogwood blossom was done using punches.    

If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword  ODBDSLC10. When creating your posts on blogs please include a link to the challenge! Please check
