Our Daily Bread Designs challenge this week to make a holiday card using ODBD stamps. All the details for the challenge will be on the blog this Saturday, Oct,15th. Please use the keyword ODBDSLC80, so we can see your creations. DonÂ’t forget to enter your card in the challenge on the blog.
This week I made a modified gatefold card using the ODBDÂ’s new release, Christmas Door. The door is stamped in Brown Memento ink, colored with copics, then I added some Fun Flock to the garland. I stamped a second image of the bow on the wreath and popped it up on dimensionals. The sentiment is from the Holly Tag set which I punched out with a large oval punch and layered that on the scalloped oval, sponged it, added some rhinestones, and a gold bow. Last, I added a button to make a closure for the card front. Inside is a greeting from the Christmas Door set. If you have a minute, I would love to know what you think!
Thanks for looking, and I hope you can join us in the challenge this week!

Oh Sue this is beautiful! I love the wreath and the pretty bow on it. The way you put the garland around the door is lovely. I like the papers and the pretty gold cording you used is pretty and love the paper you chose. This is lovely!

Greenie, what a beautiful Country Christmas! I love the gate fold and the charm of your papers and trim. The lil tag is a very sweet addition. Your coloring is wonderful, and love how you 3D'd the bow on the wreath. Gorgeous! Hugs...

Sue,
Your card is wonderful - has a homey and country feel from the DP you selected. Your door looks very welcoming - and I bet there is a crackling fire, fresh baked cookies and egg nog behind your door!
