Hello friends! It's a VERY exciting day today! The Design Team is introducing a gorgeous new release from The Greetery!! The new release is called "Wild Elegance" and it is very elegant indeed! Of course it's filled with beautiful flowers and innovative dies, and stencils, and more! We are sharing all of the products today - only today! RELEASE DAY IS THURSDAY, AUGUST 4TH AT 10AM EST! So you don't have to wait very long to make your choices! It is such a joy and delight to craft with the new items from The Greetery. It is also a joy to bring them to you! I have three cards to share today! Prize information and blog hop information is at the bottom of my post! Enjoy!
First up is a soft and pretty yellow card made with the brand new suite called Floral Arches! There is a stencil set with matching stamps, a matching die set that cuts out the outside and the inside and has accent pieces, and perfectly lined up arched sentiments. I also used the new Arches A2 Die set. SO creative and clever!! My finished card is a white A2 card base (that will show you the scale of the floral).... I layered yellow cardstock, gingham and a bit of vellum too.
Here is a side view so you can see all my layers. There is a set of arches coming out with this release and I used that set to die cut my vellum arch to go under the top white layer. The sentiments stamp onto the arch perfectly. I gold heat embossed the happy birthday portion.
Another perfect floral stencil/stamp set from The Greetery! I had a very hard time deciding what colors to use, but I ended up with a soft pastel pink and peach combo that is really nice! You stencil all the bits and then go back in with the matching stamps to accent. I always use my MISTI for the stamping part.
If you know me at all, you know that blank white space unnerves me! LOL. So I used part of the stencil to add some extra leaves to the bottom corner of that top layer. It's all in the details.
Next up is a purple power floral made using the new Sketched Wildflower Bouquet Stamp/Stencil/Die combo. My finished card is an A2 white card base layered with purple and gingham... I used The Greetery Postal Dies for the top white layer - with woodgrain cardstock.
Here is a side view of my layers. I put in a bit of vellum and used pearls as accents.
The floral spray - I stamped it first in black ink using my MISTI. Then I used large and small blender brushes to ink the matching stencils. (SO fast and easy). I die cut it out using the matching die. I splashed on some white paint for good measure!
I attached the floral spray to the card using foam tape - but it is still pretty flat for mailing. I made this as a birthday card but I feel like this would also be such a lovely bridal shower card!!
My last card is a bit rustic and wild! I used the new Lovely Silhouettes and the new Arches dies to create this one. My card base is an A2 size, made from woodgrain cardstock. All the other paper in this card is watercolor paper. I used Distress inks and water to achieve my watercolor feel.
The stamps/dies in this set are wildflower silhouettes. So you could stamp them in black against a pretty background for a true silhouette - love that look. I wanted to try something a bit different though. I used Distress Inks and inked directly onto the stamps. I used my sprayer bottle to spray the ink/stamp and then stamped onto watercolor paper. Voila - watercolored! I let everything dry and then die cut the pieces using the matching dies. This is such a fun tried and true technique.
I also did the sentiment the same way - nice and watery!
For the background I inked up a piece of watercolor paper with blue hues to look like the sky behind the flowers. I die cut an arch from the same woodgrain paper. I used foam tape to pop the arch up off the background. Lastly, I inserted my flowers.
Okay, friends, that's it for the brand new release reveals for The Greetery Wild Elegance! I hope you enjoy the new release and have fun creating your own projects! Thanks for stopping by! XO
