Hello June releases!

Here is a sneak peek at one of the sets being released by Our Daily Bread designs in June - this set is called Ask Seek Knock. The door is the main image, accompanied by 3 verses. (The sentiment I used is from the Flourished Christian Symbols set.) I stamped the door image twice, once on this piece of Basic Grey cardstock, and once on red cardstock. I added some shading and highlights with Prismacolor pencils. On the main panel I cut out the doorway, then cut out the door from the red panel, leaving a tab on the right side so it could open out. The door is slightly ajar, and 'popped' with mounting foam. The rock path is sketched in, and grass is stamped in with chalk inks (grass stamp by smARTworks). The corner flourish stamp is from Stamp Camp.

After a lot of prayer over the last few months, I've decided that June will be my last month on the ODBD senior design team - it was a hard decision as this team is so unique, loving, and supportive, and has been such a blessing to me...I just feel that it's time for me to ease up on some of the things that pull at my free time, so that I can be more available and flexible with my family and my team here when things come my way. I'll still be designing stamps, though, so you'll still be seeing ODBD represented here, don't worry! I just can't pull myself away!

  6. Dina, this card is so luminous! It's as if the door is leading to heaven's entrance! You are so gifted! That stone walkway looks like it belongs as part of the stamped image! Wows all around!!

    I'm sorry to hear you're leaving ODBD as a bread stick, but glad you'll still be designing sets! I bought one of your designs and hope to have it in my hot little hands before long!

  7. This is such a beautiful and elegant card. I love your interpretation of this design. I will miss you designing for ODBD as I truly enjoy how you think about what you are creating, but as stated by others, I'm so glad you will still be designing sets. I really love your work and look forward to more of your designs. God bless you. Elizabeth S. in mid-Michigan
