November Our Daily Bread Designs blog hop

-
Hello friends! Welcome to the Our Daily Bread designs November Release Blog Hop! If you got here from Dawn's Blog, you are in the right place. If not you might want to start at the Our Daily Bread designs Blog and start from the beginning. If you get lost along the way, simply return there where the entire hop is listed with links.


Now, here are the Hop Details:
The Hop will run 8am EDT Nov. 1 until 8pm EDT Nov 2. The winners will be announced on the ODBDBlog on Nov 3. THREE blessed hoppers will win their CHOICE of ONE FREE SET, and ONE very blessed hopper will win the GRAND PRIZE of their CHOICE OF THREE FREE SETS!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. Answer the question on the ODBD blog when you leave your comment.

I don't know about you but every year I search for a design for my Christmas cards that is mailable.  You know what I mean, not to many layers, nothing to lumpy or bumpy to make the postman go well postal and make me pay $1 for each card I need to mail.  When I first saw the new Our Daily Bread Designs set Warm Wishes I knew that I had found this years card because it doesn't get any more mailable then a super clean and simple one layer card.  On this card I did use some taffeta ribbon which lays really flat and a little tree charm, tho the charm will be left off of the ones I mass produce.  I added a couple of touches of glitter to the snow and some touches of flower soft just to give the card a little interest.
Now hop on over and visit Patter and see what loveliness she has in store for you.

This card is also for this weeks Papertake Weekly challenge which is an anything goes challenge with the option to add glitter or bling.  Why don't you join us and play along, after you finish the blog hop of course!

What I used:
Our Daily Bread Designs Warm Wishes
GP white
Versafine black, Memento black
clear embossing powder, flower soft, glitter pen
Copic Markers
SU ribbon, charm

Great work on creating a "flat" card. I have the hardest time getting my cards to come out flat. I'm always wanting to add a bow or use the pop dots. Most of the time I just bite the bullet and pay the extra postage.
