The Greetery - Confetti Encore Day 1...



 Hey there crafty friends!  I am so excited to be here today to share the latest Greetery Release called Confetti Encore.  I have 3 quick and simple projects to share today using the new goodies!


This first one was so fun to make using the new Celebration Streamers Stamp and Stencil.  The large background stamp creates the streamers and the stencils add in the shading.  SO much fun!!  I used the 3rd stencil in the set to add in 3D confetti with some embossing paste. I finished this card off with an adorable sentiment from the new Four Square Birthday Stamp Set.  After stamping the image in aqua ink, I stamped another layer of embossing ink and added some clear embossing powder on the sentiment to give it some extra shine.

Next up, I created a set of tags with the Four Square Birthday Stamp Set.  I used an older set of tags to create the set.  First, I hot foiled some white cardstock using the new Ticker Tape Hot Foil Plate, then I die cut the tags from that cardstock. I added a different sentiment from the Four Square set to each tag.  I used the same technique as the first card, adding in a layer of ink, and then embossing ink and powder to give the sentiments some shine.  I added each tag layered with another tag in a dark aqua cardstock and then finished each tag off with a ribbon/staple detail.  I love a good quick and easy tag!

Last up is a card with the Flourished Phrases: Birthday Suite. I grabbed a white card base and some pink striped paper.  Using my Arches Dies, I die cut the striped paper for the background. Next, I die cut a piece of white cardstock with the Flourished Phrases: Birthday Suite Die.  I stenciled on the Happy Birthday portion of the image, using a heavy hand along the bottom for some extra shading.  For the flourish stencil, I used gold Embossing Paste.  I love the extra detail and shine that the past makes.

A little info about commenting here on my blog....


My comments are moderated because I get a ton of spam.  The kind of spam that tells me about cholesterol medication, among others, and just weird bot comments so I filter those out.  If you leave a comment and don't see it, thats ok!  I will see it and I will get it posted for you.  

The other issue is wether or not you need a google account.  I have my comments set to "anyone" so technically you should be able to leave a comment with any type of login, but Blogger is a pain.  If you can't leave a comment and are not sure if you your name is posting along with your comment, please add your name and email address to the end of your comment. This way we can see who you are if your comment gets chosen as a winner!  I am sorry for the annoyance.  I have no idea why it doesn't work like it should.  I have googled and switched settings around and tried all the things but again... 

Blogger is a pain.

Welcome to Day 1 of the latest reveals at The Greetery!  The newest collection is called Spring Fling and it is filled with the most gorgeous stamps and dies perfect for Mothers Day and Easter!

Everything you see today (Wednesday), will be available at The Greetery,  Thursday, February 29th at 10am EST. Let's get started!

__________________________________

This first card uses 2 new sets: The Spring Frame Rubber Stamp and the To Mom with Love Stamp Set.  I stamped and die cut the frame and added in a little green detail.  I die cut the coral tulips from the die set and added in some Glossy Accents.  After adding in some blue ink blending to the center of the card base, I added the sentiment in the center and the frame around the front of the card.  Super quick and easy!


The Greetery



This next set is call Print Shop: Modern Botanical Stamp and Stencil.  There is a coordinating die set too, for those little blooms.  After using both the stenciled parts and added in the stamped details, I popped up the flowers and added a sentiment from the All Occasions Script Sentiments Stamp Set.  LOVE that font!


The Greetery


And the last card in today's line up is this one....perfect for Easter!  I did the Herringbone Parquet Die on the card base and then added in those gorgeous snow drops.  I finished off the card with 2 sentiments from Easter Morning Sentiments heat embossed with Gold Embossing Powder.  I added in the little cross die cut for one extra bit of detail!

Everything you see today (Wednesday) and tomorrow, will be available at The Greetery,  Thursday, February 29th at 10am EST. Let's get started!



This first gorgeous floral image is from the set called Spring Snowdrops!  I stamped out the leaves and added on the white dies, popping the whole image up on a die cut of fun foam.  I added the flowers to a blue card base framed with the Postage Die and a sentiment from the To Mom with Love Stamp Set.  Super easy!


The Greetery


This next card showcases the new Seagrass Basket Die.  This little basket is so easy to put together.   You know with the Greetery, there are LOTS of fun things to fill the baskets with.  I used some Bontanicuts Wheat Dies along with the retired set, Oopsie Daisy.  (Grab your own Oopsie Daisy set HERE because there are a few left on sale in the shop!)


The Greetery


This last card uses the Botanicuts: Lilacs Die Set.  I die cut each piece out of white cardstock and then added color with Copics.  I layered them all onto a colored card base and framed it with a white circle die cut panel.  I used a sentiment from the Easter Morning Sentiment Die.

Hero Arts Spring Catalog Release Hop....




 I was so excited to be invited to share in the latest Hero Arts Catalog Release.  This catalog is full of amazing new products sure to ignite your creativity!  I have several favorites but I wanted to share a couple of them in today's card.  Keep scrolling to check out my project, learn all about the amazing HA Giveaway and see a full list of stops on todays hop!

Here is today's card...


Hero Arts



To create this card, I used the new Color Layering Tulip Pattern Stencil.  I blended the full panel but ended up cutting it down to showcase the "smile" die from the new Smile Friend Stamp and Cut XL.  I used the die to cut the sentiment out of the floral panel and then again in yellow cardstock.  I inlayed the sentiment onto the stenciled panel and then popped it up on a white card base.  I used the Tulip Pattern Cover Plate to cut the rest of my panel out and then. used one of the little die cuts to the left of the focal point on my card.  I added some bling with the Translucent Greens Hero Hues Enamel Dots on the card front.  Love the shine and pop of color that the enamel dots add!



Hero Arts


And one quick and simple bonus card....


Hero Arts


To use up the negative from the Tulip Panel, I made a quick scored frame around a white card base and then added the smile sentiment, with a layer of fun foam behind it, to the bottom of the card.  I added a single green enamel dot for an extra little detail.
