Our Daily Bread Sneak Peek and Blog Candy!!!!

I had so much fun creating this box that can be used for anything, but it is the perfect size for 3x3" cards and envelopes. I followed Laurie's SCS tutorial and then made some matching scalloped note cards/gift enclosures. I used the soon to been released Our Daily Bread Designs, Peace on Earth stamp set (will be available to purchase as of August 15th). I chose to use the dove, because dove's always remind me of Christmas and the tranquility that we all crave at that time :)


Here is a close up of the detailed dove. It's really hard to tell in the photo, but I shaded it with a Sahara sand marker and blended with an aqua painter. I then added some glitz with my gelly roll glitter pen on the tips of all the feathers. I wish that you could see this in person because it has such a sophisticated shimmer that really makes the dove pop!


Here is a sample of the gift set together. I actually made 5 cards and envelopes to go with this and only took a picture of one of them because the rest are all the same :) You could probably fit at least 6 note cards and envelopes in this box.


This almost 3x3 card was cut out using one of my square scalloped Nestabilities. I used my Martha Stewart snowflake punch create the snowflake and then backed it with packing tape. This is the perfect techniques for making a little glitter window! I added glitter and then assembled. **Note to self to keep the glitter on the card and NOT all over the floor** Oopsy!! lol
