Stamping in Time Happy Birthday!

SIT-HB-Tag-It

Hello everyone!

It is time for ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge(SNTODBD34)! The assignment is to use Our Daily Bread Design stamps. The challenge this rotation is Tag! You’re It! Simply use a tag on your creation!! We look forward to seeing what you create using ODBD stamps! Remember, the more you play the more you increase your chance to win!

I have used this month's new release, Mini Tags 3, which were custom made to fit the Spellbinders Ribbon Tags Trio #3. I also used Spellbinders Fancy Tags Two, and Parisian Accents, all of which I cut with my Grand Calibur. What I love about the GC is that you can cut so many things with one pass!!! The platform is large enough to hold all these elements at once!

This card is 5 x 7, larger than I usually make, but I loved this K&Co Spring Blossom DP so much (thanks again to my dear friend for this dp) I just wanted to use as much of the design as I could! Because I let the dp do most of the work, this was a very quick and easy card to make! My base is Papertrey Dark Chocolate and the pink mat is Dark Dusty Mauve by WordWinn Papers. I did stitch the main panel, and then I added my chocolate Spellbinders elements and my tag and the SU! Certainly Celery Grosgrain Ribbon. I only embellished with some Recollections Crystals and done.

That's one of the great things about this month's tag sets... they make quick easy cards and have great sentiments!

I hope you enjoyed my CAS card! Be sure to pop over to the ODBD Blog to see what others have created for this challenge, and then I hope you'll play along! You might just win some ODBD stamps!!!
