Looking Back at the ODBD December 2017 Release

Hello friends!  Today we are taking another look at the Our Daily Bread Designs December 2017 Release.   

My first sample was made with the new Praise the Lord stamp set.

Creative Nugget:  Papers from the Christmas Collection 2017 were cut with Pierced Rectangle dies and stitched together for the card front.  A Decorative Corner Die was used to create the corners on the center green panel.  The cross from the Praise the Lord stamp set was colored with Copic Markers, cut with the Oval Stitched Rows Die and matted with a red Oval.  The sentiment was white embossed on vellum, layered over ribbon and wrapped around the card front before mounting it to the card base.  Finally the bow was added to finish the card. 

My second sample uses the White as Snow Stamp & Die Duo, the Card Caddy & Gift Bag Dies and the Gift Bag Handles and Topper Dies.

Creative Nugget:  The Card Caddy & Gift Bag Dies without the inset along with the Gift Bag Handles & Topper Dies were used to cut the pieces of the gift bag from white card stock.  Strong adhesive was used to attach all the sides except one, keeping the bag flat until the front was finished.  The Snowflake Sky Die was used to create a decorative panel which was layered onto paper from the Christmas Collection 2014 paper pad.  This was adhered to the front panel of the bag.  The White as Snow Stamp & Die Duo was used to stamp and cut the snowman which was colored with Copic Markers and also attached to the front of the bag. The sentiment was embossed, cut with a Pierced Circle Die and mounted to a Circle cut from the decorative paper before adding it to the front. The handle toppers were attached to the front and back of the bag before adhering the remaining side and bottom of the bag.
