Welcome to my post for this week’s challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs! I’ve been enjoying sharing my cards with you as well as seeing your beautiful take on the challenges! It’s inspiring to see all the different takes and creative designs you all submit!
This week we have an inspiration challenge with a beautiful photo full of lovely colors I know you’ll love! Here is the card I created:
I used a new stamp set for this month’s new release called Life is a Gift! I love the beautiful sentiments on this stamp set and the versatility of the image as well. I stamped and heat embossed the image various times in gold and managed to stamp the continuation of the image on the sentiment label.
I stamped the main sentiment from this set and framed it with a green patterned label using Vintage Flourish Pattern and Blushing Rose Collection (papers). I also used a piece of ribbon to accent the labels and add a bold touch of red.
I roughly added color to the images with alcohol markers and embellished them also with red pearls. I finished the label with small green pearls too.
I hope you enjoyed seeing my card for today. I invite you to share your creativity with us this week! To see all the projects created for ODBDSLC227 or to join the challenge click here.

Love the asymmetrical balance on this card. And the leather cardstock background gives a subtle texture that doesn't compete with the stamping and embossing. Beautiful!
