ODBD JULY RELEASE!!!

Hello friends! Welcome to the Our Daily Bread Designs July Release Blog Hop!

Grace is on vacation this month so Kelley is in charge and she is going to change it up a bit! We are not having a regular blog hop today....Kelley is posting all of the Design Teams cards and links to their blogs on the main ODBD Blog!!!   

One winner will be chosen from one of the designers blog comments to receive a $50 Gift Certificate to the ODBD Store!!! You have until July 3, 2013 at 9:00 p.m. EST to make your comments! 
Also, starting this month our Alumni Team will no longer be posting on Thursdays, but will now be joining in on our New Release Posts to bring you even more inspiration with our new release stamps!!! Don't forget to hop on over to the ODBD Blog to view all the changes and of course to see the entire listing of fabulous cards!!!






Now... on to my cards....both of my cards are showing the Love Scripture Set



I started out with the Kraft CS base and I've added another layer of White CS and some leftover MME Design Paper. At last I embellished my first card with a Doily, some Kraft Ribbon, some White Scrapper's Floss with a matching SU Kraft Button, Halfback Pearls and a few Prima Flowers. My second card is a bit more simple and I added some SU Ruffled Kraft Ribbon and Linen Ribbon, a matching SU Button and Halfback Pearls.

Have fun hopping and good luck! I'll see you again tomorrow for a new Color Q Challenge

                                                                   Hugs, ~Silke~
