****I HAVE TWO BLOG POSTS TODAY! PLEASE SCROLL TO SEE THE PINKFRESH STUDIO BLOG HOP POST!****
Hi friends!! VERY exciting news for you today! I'm here to share the product and project reveals for the April 2023 new release from The Greetery! Yay! This release is called "Hip Hip Hooray" and it's all about celebrations! Think birthdays, and weddings, and graduations! Any reason to have a party and celebrate! This release is seriously so cheerful and I know it will make you smile!! We will have two reveal days this release - today and tomorrow. The design team will be sharing projects on our blogs and revealing all the new products for you. SO exciting! I have six cards to share with you the next two days and they are ALL birthday cards! Yeah - so many great ideas for the type of cards we make the most! I used loads of color on my cards and I hope they make you happy too. Are you excited?? Let's get started, shall we?!
THE NEW RELEASE DAY IS WEDNESDAY APRIL 26TH AT 10AM EST!
My first card for today features the brand new All Aglow product suite - stamps, dies, stencils...and the brand new Make A Wish Dies!! My finished card is an A2 white card based, layered with aqua, vellum and white. All set up to showcase those cool candles!! I used all my favorite sherbet-y birthday colors!
Here's a side shot of my layers... The candles image is the star of the show.... The candles and the flames and the stripes/dots etc are all stencils! Yes, it's that easy to create this cool image! The rays on top of the flame circles are the coordinating stamps. Sooo cool.
I used champagne glitter drops for the flames and gold glitter paper for the sentiment. I really wanted a bit of shimmer on this card!! It's nice and flat for mailing too.
I added a few sparkles from the stamp set also! It's so neat. Can be retro too, don't you think??
Next up is another birthday card that features hot tropical colors! I used the brand new Tear Strips Banners Dies and Tear Strips Tags Birthday stamps! I also featured the SUPER cool new Sparkler Background stamp!! My finished card is an A2 white card base, layered with hot pink, then white....
Here's a close up of the Sparkler Background Stamp. I heat embossed it in white embossing powder onto vellum. This is a fun look and I'm happy with how it turned out!!
The stars of this card are all those fun banner die cuts! I die cut out a bunch of the new banners and placed them on the card. Then I did one in black with white embossing for the sentiment. So graphic!
My finishing touch was to add a few champagne glitter drops. This would be fun in any of your favorite color combos!
And my final card for today is a big bold square card! You will recognize the awesome Pinwheel Party stencils as the background. Then this card also features the brand new Make A Wish dies and the brand new Make A Wish stamp set. I used a fav color combo of orange and blue. The colors could be changed up to match grad colors or party colors!!
I used the new Tear Strip Banner to add my smaller sentiment. I inked the edges of the banner to match the pinwheels! I splattered on some gold paint and die cut my sentiment from gold glitter cardstock. Party!!
To make the background, I stenciled the pinwheels twice on the same paper. The top one, then flip the paper around, and do it again! It leaves just the right space for the sentiment.
All my ink pad colors are listed out in my supplies list at the bottom of my post!
It's your day to shine! I love that!
So happy for a new release!! That's it for day one of the new release reveals! Be sure to come back tomorrow and I will be sharing three more cards featuring the new items! Yippeeeeeee! What's your favorite thing so far? Do you make birthday cards the most? That's what I make the most of! The new release will be for sale on Wednesday, April 26th at 10AM EST!! See you tomorrow! XOXO
