Welcome to the Our Daily Bread designs 4th Anniversary Special Design Team Edition Release Blog Hop! If you got here from the talented  Lisa's Blog, you are in the right place! If not, you might want to start at the ODBD Blog so you are sure to not miss anyone! If any links are lost along the way, you can always get the entire list of links from the ODBD Blog as well!

The bread sticks are so excited to be celebrating this special milestone in the life of ODBD! It is such a blessing to work for a company that brings glory to God in every stamp set created, and offers us the tools we need to do the same with every card we create! If you are a long term follower of ODBD, then you know that each year, the Design Team submits a favorite Scripture for the special anniversary sets, and those suggestions have been the sum total of all the "Scripture Collection" stamp sets in the store.  This year, the special sets include our favorite Scriptures, but also quotes and sentiments that we feel would be great on cards or projects. I think you will find some of the most encouraging and uplifting words available in stamps in these special anniversary sets!


So now, here are the Details of the Anniversary Hop:

  • The Hop will run 8am EDT Mar. 17 until 8pm EDT Mar 18
  • The winners will be announced on the ODBD Blog on Mar 19.
  • Four hoppers will win a FREE ANNIVERSARY SET and One blessed hopper will win The Complete Anniversary Bread Basket Bundle!!!
Here is what you have to do to be qualified to win one of these prizes:
  • Hop to each designer’s blog and leave a comment
  • Return to the Our Daily Bread designs blog and leave a comment telling us that you completed the hop, making note if there were any you could not comment on.
  • Along with your statement that you completed the hop, leave some Anniversary wishes for Kelley and the gang at ODBD!


Here is my creation:



 I think it is a real honor that Kelley asked us to participate by submitting our favorite scripture or sentiment to celebrate ODBD's anniversaries! This is the sentiment I submitted!

The sentiment was cut out and framed using Spellbinder's Floral Ovals and Fleur de lis Squares!  The decorative border was created using Spellbinder's Persian Accents. The lovely flowers were created using Cherry Lynn Designs Miniature and Medium Rose Dies! The leaves and foliage is CLD's Flourish! The D/P is by My Minds Eye!


Now I will send you to the next stop on the hop is talented Silke's Blog!

Hope you enjoy the hop! Thanks for stopping by!

ODBD "Flower Hunt Game"


~ Happy Tuesday and welcome to ODBD's Flower Hunt ~

We are celebrating the 4th Anniversary of Our Daily Bread designs! All this week we have special events going on over on the ODBD Blog, so be sure to check them out! Today we have something that we hope will be pure fun for all! One Dozen of the Bread Sticks have baked up a special game for you! We decided to shower ODBD with a bouquet of flowers, since flowers are one of the traditional gifts for a 4th anniversary. You will be collecting these flowers along the way, and creating a beautiful bouquet for Kelley and all of Our Daily Bread designs!

We each have created a special card or project using at least one of our own personal ALL TIME FAVORITE ODBD sets. SIX of us will also have a special blog button with a special flower on it! (It will be labeled as a Designer's Flower Hunt Game, and will give the name of a flower.) Look for it in the designer's side bars of their blogs.

To play the game:
  • Visit each designer listed below
  • Leave a comment
  • Keep a list of each designer who has a special flower blog button. Write down the designer's name and the name of the flower they have.
  • When you have visited all 12, left comments and found the 6 flowers, send an email to Grace at gnywening@yahoo.com. Simply name the 6 designers who had the flowers and the flower they had.
  • Winners will be chosen randomly from all who email me with their list by 9:00pm DST Mar. 15th!
Now on to my project details:

Grace asked us to list our FOUR ALL TIME FAVORITE ODBD sets, and to use at least one on our project today. How can I possibly just choose 4? Well.... if I have to, here are my four favorites:.....................

1.  "Don't Worry"  reminds me that worry doesn't solve anything! We should give our worries up to the Lord and leave them in his hands!
 
2. "Happy Birthday"  has a  watering can of beautiful flowers! Such a beautiful way to send that special someone a Happy Birthday message!

3. "Harvest Blessings" Sunflowers are such happy flowers, they make me smile!

4. "Sing To The Lord" is the very first ODBD set that I purchased. I just love the beautiful bird on the branch of blooms. It also has such wonderful Scriptures!

For my project today, I used........ "Don't Worry"


The lovely flowers, butterfly and sentiment were framed using a Sizzix E/F. The images were colored using copics. Pearls were added to the corners!


Now, I'll send you on your way. Here are the dozen bread sticks in the bread basket today:


Grace  
Patter
Angie
Chris
Sabrina
Lori
