Hi there! It's a very exciting day! We are here to celebrate the three year anniversary of The Greetery! Congratulations to Betsy! I am so honored to have been part of this awesome company since the very first release. It is a true joy to work with The Greetery! And I am so happy to celebrate this occasion! It's release week!
Today, the team is kicking off a brand new, beautiful release from The Greetery! The new release is called "Garden Variety" and it is perfect for early Summer and anyone who loves flowers and gardening! It's all so very very pretty! Flowers, Garden Tools, New Botanicuts, New word dies.... 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 May 26th at 10am EST. I am quite sure you're gonna like it! Are you excited? I am! Be sure to read all the way to the bottom of my post for prize information and links to the other designers!
Today I have two cards to show you and they are made with the two brand new Print Shop products!! Print Shop Garden Goodness and Print Shop Daisy Days! Stamps, Stencils and Dies that all match together like a dream. I have really come to love stenciling!!
My first card features the brand new Print Shop Daisy Days Stamp/Stencil/Die combo! I also used the new Scripty Hello Dies! The florals fill the front of an A2 card perfectly and you can make your daisies any color combination! Or you could not die cut it out and use it as a full panel... My inspiration for my card was a country Summer... Yellow and Kraft!! My finished card is an A2 white card base, covered with woodgrain cardstock, vellum, and then the florals.
I started the card by stenciling the Daisy Days panel. OMG so so pretty!!! I used yellows and greens to make my bouquet! The stencils are so super easy to use and line up. Perfect every time. I splashed on some white paint on top and used the matching die to cut it out. It fills the entire front of the card. I love the detail in the cut out of the die. VERY classy.
I layered a vellum piece over my woodgrain layer. Then I wrapped a bit of twine around it. The floral piece is attached to the card with small foam squares.
The sentiment is a new word die set - Scripty Hello and I layered dark brown paper and vellum. It's really nice - the perfect size!!
Some of my stenciling tips: I use two sizes of blender brushes! I do the large areas with the bigger brushes and then go back with the smaller brushes to add shading and do the little flowers. For both of my cards today I used the SSS Pawsitively Ink Pads. The colors are vivid and clear and bright. They make sets of threes in each color for shading and they are awesome!! I really love the colors. I am slowly collecting all the color sets - I buy three or four of the three packs each time. I loooove them both for stamping and for stenciling. I have a lot of ink pads and these are my favs right now!
My next card features the brand new Print Shop Garden Goodness Stamp/Stencil/Die combination! This suite is really cool and has a bit of a different twist... You can make the whole panel your card (as I did here), or you can die cut out the panel and it makes each element a separate piece! Then you can mix and match the small images however you like. Genius!!! My finished card is an A2 card base in white. I die cut a stitched edge around it and kept it super simple...
After I stenciled the whole panel, I went back and stenciled a few leaves, the strawberries and the butterflies to add as accents!
I shaded the leaves with two shades of green and then stamped the veins in a third color. Doing the shading really brings it to life I feel!!
For my sentiment I used vellum and gold glitter cardstock and that pretty new Scripty Hello Die!
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 May 26th at 10am EST.
