Our Daily Bread Designs Birthday Card

A few weeks ago, I purchased some new dies from Our Daily Bread.  Today I finally used them....oh, do I love these dies!  Can't wait to use the rest of them!

 I started with white card stock, and stamped Our Daily Bread Designs Corner Floral Image with India Ink stamp pad.  I colored the image with Copics in various shades, and used a Spellbinder's die to die cut the image.  I sponged a little wilted violet distress ink around the edges.  

Next, I die cut ODBD's die CSBD84 from purple card stock, using the outside portion, and one of the inside portions (this die set has several possibilities with five pieces to it).  I layered the inside portion onto some hot pink card stock and trimmed it to 1/16 inch, then adhered it to the first die cut with craft foam for dimension.  I also die cut two additional corners from this die, and added them to the flower panel on the right and left side.

 Since I happily found my mulberry paper, I thought it would really look nice with this image and dies, so I tore a piece and added it to a white card base, which I had used my Clarity brushes on to add some of the distress ink to soften the white a little.

I added the die cut panels to the card with craft foam, then added the image to the top of the dies with more craft foam.  Clear opalescent sequins finish off the card.

I really had fun creating this one!  I am adding it to the Our Daily Bread Designs challenge, which is 'Anything that grows.'  I am also adding it to day 12 of The Daily Marker 30 day color challenge; and finally to Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - Flora and/of Fauna.

Thanks so much for visiting today.  Hope to see you back here tomorrow!!
