Happy Birthday, Kelley!

Today a few of the "Breadsticks" have gotten together to celebrate the birthday of Kelley Holland, owner and mastermind of Our Daily Bread Designs, by surprising her with this Birthday Blog Hop!  (At least we hope it is a surprise…it's hard to keep a secret from this lady!)  We hope you will hop along with us and share your own birthday wishes for Kelley!  If you've arrived here from Angie's gorgeous blog, you are in the right place…if not you may want to return to the Our Daily Bread Designs Blog and start at the beginning so you don't miss any of the beauty and birthday cheer!

Have a wonderful and blessed birthday, Kelley!

RELAX and allow your family to pamper you on your special day!
We hope you enjoy these projects created just for you!

Here is the card I created for Kelley using 
Our Daily Bread Designs stamps and dies:

Creative Nugget:  The main panel was created on mixed media paper.  Modeling Paste was used to make the chevron stripes and a little Mowed Lawn distress ink was sponged on them.  Splatters of gray watercolor and Spun Sugar distress ink were added next. The layered flower was cut from Solar Crest paper using the Asters and Leaves Dies.  Spun Sugar was sponged on the petals and Picked Raspberry was used on the tips.  Solar Crest paper was sponged with Mowed Lawn and Peeled Paint distress inks before being cut with the leaves, also from the Asters and Leaves die set.  The flower center was sponged and covered with Glossy Accents and micro beads.  The leafy flourish was cut from Smokey Shadow card stock using the Fancy Foliage Dies.  A birthday greeting from the All Occasion Sentiments stamp set was embossed using Liquid Platinum embossing powder on a piece of vellum.  A few scattered pearls finish the card!
