Concord & 9th May New Release - Good Vibes and Posies!

Hi gang! Happyyyy Fridayyyyy!!! Oh man, it's been 95 degrees here already! Not ready! But Summer is coming! Hope you had a great week! Good to see you! I am a guest designer for Concord and 9th's beautiful May 2022 new release. Yippee! I have two projects to share with you today made with the new goodies. Everything is already in the store for shopping so I hope you find some inspiration and maybe something that you want to create with. My personal favorite thing from the new release is the Picked Posie Dies and Stamps. Pretty, modern, classic florals. Right up my alley. Let's take a look!

My first card was made with the new Picked Posie Suite and also the Stitched Vines background (another favorite thing of mine from C9). I used Concord and 9th beautiful cardstock also. My finished card is an A2 card base. I covered it with deep pink paper. My 'white' parts are actually cream cardstock for more of a soft/vintage feeling. I used kind of a different color palette for me. I popped in that deep red. Again, I felt like that was sort of vintage. What do you think??

 

For the sentiment banner, I die cut three of them from cream cardstock and glued them together for more of a statement. I stamped that gorgeous sentiment onto the top one. SO FRESH!!! 

 

The dies are in separate pieces so you can mix and match florals for any type of layout. I wanted a big floral spray focusing on those soft pink posies.

 

Here's a close up of that Stitched Vines Background Die - perfection!!

 

I added some white gel pen accents onto the flowers and leaves and also finished off with some white enamel dots. You know I love all the little details. 

 

 

 

All the flowers were attached to the card with foam dots for dimension. I put the flowers down first and then tucked the leaves in between. 

 

Next up is a fun and funky Good Vibes card! The finished card is a 5" x 5" square card from kraft paper. I used a retro 70's good vibes color palette and the new Good Vibes turnabout stamp and dies. I also put in some funky cute birds!! 

 

I used only C9 ink pad colors and cardstock for this card. Yummy orange, yellow, aqua and teal. Reminds me of the OP shirts I used to wear in junior high school! I used vellum as the background for the dies....To let that pretty background show through.

 

 

 

I splashed on a little bit of white paint and also used some white enamel dots as my details. This would make a great 'cheer up' or 'get well card' I think. 

 

 

I'm wishing you only good vibes today and a very very happy weekend!! Thanks for stopping by today to see me! Happy Crafting! Love ya! XOXO

Love them both ... it has been 95-96 in Texas and you can't stand to be out for long. Glad our visiting is mostly indoors!! Concord has some very beautiful dimensional flowers here and I do love your funky birds too. So very festive looking. Glad to know your well and I'm missing all my crafty stuff. Brought some knitting with. Hugs
