Hey hey hey! It's Day Two of The Greetery new release week! The new release is called A Song of Christmas! Today's song theme is Deck The Halls! There are product/project reveals three days this week and then the new release will be available for shopping on Friday, October 7th at 10am EST! I have two more cards to share today with you. I went with a vivid and bright color story today on both of my cards. If you didn't see yesterday's post - make sure to go back and read it so you're all caught up!!
My first card today features the brand new Jumbo Curiosity Ornaments and the brand new Twinkle Background Die (swoon)! My finished card is an A2 white card base. I used the Twinkle Background as my layer to feature that pretty ornament!
Here's a close up side view of the background die and the ornament die!! I used the Pine Wisps Dies and the Tied Up Dies to add a tree and bow to my ornament.
I used glitter and white paint and silver pearl paint to make a snowy look!
The background was ink blended with Blender Brushes and Mermaid Lagoon Oxide Ink!! SO vivid and cool and icy!
The sentiment is from the Opposites Attract Holiday stamp/die combo released last year! I really just wanted a clean and simple sentiment and this was perfect!
My second card for today showcases the brand new Mistletoe Arches stamp, dies, and stencil suite!! It also features the brand new Arched Holiday Sentiments stamps and dies. I went with a frosty pink and green color palette and I could not love it more. These stencils are awesome. My finished card is an A2 card base. I also layered some vellum and hot pink gingham to this fresh and happy card.
Here's a close up view of the sentiments and my card layers. I used Copper embossing powder for this project - and it matches the pink! Like a soft rose gold feeling to it!! I started by stenciling the entire panel of Mistletoe branches and berries and then die cut it out with the matching die. I stamped the arched sentiment in black onto an arched panel. I used pink ink to ink blend just the bottom of the arched part.
I love how the swirls in the larger sentiment fit perfectly inside the arched sentiment. It truly is all in the details, and Betsy thinks of everything!
I put vellum behind the opening in the Mistletoe arch - I just always like that look. I popped the Merry & Bright sentiment up with some foam dots too, and then added a couple of pink hearts.
Alrighty friends! That's it for day two of The Greetery New Release week!! Thanks for stopping by to hang out with me.... Be sure to check back in tomorrow too! MORE good things are to come. Have a great day! XOXO

Love the Merry & Bright card. The blue of the ornament card is perfect w/ that gorgeous ornament. The arches ... I'm going to have to break down and order all the arches. I just love them but did not order them last time and then they sold out (for a long time, it seemed).
Your work is superb, Wanda!!

Beautiful cards!! Did you put silver cardstock behind the new twinkle background? The ornaments are so beautiful and you have showcased it wonderfully! I also love that mistletoe background and the the fancy words — so pretty. The pink with the green mistletoe is lovely and a change from red and green.

Gorgeous cards, Wanda! I love the ornament and the background die! The ornaments remind me so much of a set of vintage ornaments that I have that were my Mom's! I treasure them! Lovely card with the mistletoe design too!
