Hey, hey, HEY!! It's an exciting day! Today, the team is kicking off a brand new, beautiful release from The Greetery! The new release is called "Breath of Spring" and it surely is a breath of fresh air! Florals and bunnies and Spring icons, and more florals! It's all so very very pretty! I can't wait to share my projects with you! Today and tomorrow are project and product reveals, and then the release will go live for shopping on Thursday March 17th at 10am EST. I am quite sure you're gonna like it! Are you excited for Spring? I am!
Today I have two cards to show you and they are very different! One is a bold and bright floral and the other is a sweet pastel scene. Something for everyone I think!
My first card features the brand new Print Shop Spring Mix Stamp/Stencil/Die combo! The florals fill the front of an A2 card perfectly and you can make your florals any color combination. My inspiration for my card was Rifle Paper Co - so I went with bold colors (Distress Inks) and a dark black background. Oh, and pops of gold too. My finished card is an A2 white card base, layered in black, and then the floral. I used vellum and gold embossing for the sentiment.
Here's a close up of the new floral. It's a set of stencils - super easy to use!! I added Copic Marker accents over the stamping and I also splattered the entire thing with gold paint. I used black enamel dots for some of the flower centers.
I heat embossed the pretty sentiment onto a vellum strip and wrapped it around the layers.
I love these colors all together. Truly like a big burst of SPRING time!
Next up is a sweet sweet little bun bun holding an umbrella from the Spring showers! This card features the new Springtime Stamp Set and Dies. This stamp set pairs perfectly with the previously release hourglass dies!!! I chose to use the elements without the hourglass. My finished card is an A2 white card base, then a bit of gingham, then some blue and more white.
The sentiments in the new stamp set fit onto the Christmas Time Banners - so you can use them to stamp and die cut them out as I did here. The umbrella is two step stamping - so easy.
That little bunny is just too cute. This stamp set would be perfect for baby shower invites, Easter, or Springtime!!
I used a cloud stencil, Distress Ink, and blender brushes to ink a few clouds over the umbrella. The raindrops are stamps that are part of the new set.
Okay, friends, that's it for day one! We will be back tomorrow with more inspiration and more new items!! Can't wait to share more with you. And remember the new release is live for sale on Thursday March 17th at 10am EST.
As usual, Betsy will generously be giving away two $50 gift certificates for the blog hop. The winners will be selected from comments left on all the blog posts! Good Luck!!
