Our Daily Bread Designs and The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store

The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store is so very pleased to announce that they will be carrying Our Daily Bread Designs stamps! Our Daily Bread Designs feature Christian themed stamps and Bible verses, all fabulous to use! I love the deeply etched red rubber stamps that stamp marvelously...crisp, clean images. They are cling stamps, so they are easy to store.


My design for today features ODBD's set "Light of the World." This set makes for an excellent masculine set...birthday, "Hello," almost any occasion.





I stamped the lighthouse image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, suitable for Copic coloring use. I did Copic color the image, but have also watercolored the background, as shown in the older design below. "My Mind's Eye Lost and Found Breeze" decorator paper, along with black cardstock makes for a frame for the image panel.  Tiny black brads from my stash add an additional touch.






Here's an oldie but goodie, made while I was a designer at Splitcoaststampers:



As you can see, I really like the black and blue combo for these lighthouse cards...LOL! 

I stamped the image onto watercolor paper, then watercolored the background. Then, I stamped the image onto creamy cardstock, colored it with Copics, and paper pieced it onto the watercolor background.

A border of May Art's black Striped ribbon, threaded through with some hardware, adds a dash of interest.

Spellbinder Classic Oval dies were used for the top card, and Petite Ovals were used for the bottom card (check with Sharon for availability).

This is a mini hop, please check out the other gal's ODBD stamp designs as well:
