ODBD's New Scripture Series 2 and Scrolly Borders Sets

Today Our Daily Bread Designs is having a very special stamp release.  As part of our third year anniversary celebration in March, customers submitted their favorite Scriptures that they would like to use on a card, and after much thought the winners were chosen and made into this special edition set, Scripture Series 2 and Scrolly Borders.  To see the full release please visit the Our Daily Bread Designs Blog You will also see samples made by the winners of the contest whose verses were chosen and to hear their stories of why they chose the verse they did!

The Design Team has also created samples for your inspiration with these Scriptures.  Here is the list of participants:

There are prizes hidden along the way, so be sure to leave a comment on each one for a chance to win!




I recently was shown how to make an adorable card holder that makes a great gift.  I knew this would be perfect with these wonderful new scripture stamps.  I used an 8½” x 11” piece of cardstock, scored and folded into the holder, and decorated it.

To embellish the band that holds it shut, I stamped flowers from the Sweet William – Small set on the coordinating decorative paper and cut them out using Spellbinders Blossom 3.  I layered these on a cream base decorated with one of the new Scrolly Borders, stamped twice and cut out. 

I made a set of four cards, using a different scripture on each one.  I used Cheery Lynn’s Lattice 2 die, layered it over decorative paper, and cut out a window to reveal the verse and scrolly border.  I recently discovered a great way to color my seam binding ribbon to coordinate with my card.  I used the wet wipes from cleaning my stamps to lightly sponge the same ink onto cream.  I wrapped this around the front of the card and added a silk flower.  I used the wet wipes to add a little more color to my flower, also.

I know you are going to love the Scripture Series 2 and Scrolly Borders sets as much as I do.  For more inspiration and a chance to win one of THREE $20.00 Gift Certificates, visit each Design Team Member listed above and don’t forget to leave a comment.  Winners will be announced Wednesday, August 17, on the ODBD blog so be sure to check back!

Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
