Good morning and welcome to day 2 of The Greetery's Spring Market Release and 2 Year Anniversary Celebration! Before I get started with today's projects, I want to let you know that I will be over at The Greetery's instagram today doing a live and sharing and sharing all of new stamps and dies that will be available on Wednesday, April 28th at 10am EDT! Come by and say hi!
Keep scrolling to see all of today's projects, the day 2 giveaway and learn more about the Greetery Gold point system.
Let's get started!
If you are a fan of the BotaniCuts Dies, then you will be so excited to learn about the latest bloom...the Tulip Die!
To create this card, I did a little bit of ink blending on a white card base...just enough to keep it subtle but still add some color. You know I love a clean and simple card! I used the Crimped Circle Dies to add a layer of white to the card base. I love those dies. A must have for sure! Next, I die cut the BontaniCuts Tulip Dies in pink cardstock and then added in some darker shades of ink, along with a few R24 Copic flicks, to give the petals some depth. I glued them all together and added in the stems and leaves. I love the embossed lines on the petals and leaves. So many great, realistic details. Last, I heat embossed the sentiment from the Pretext Sentiment Stamp Set and then die cut it out with the coordinating Pretext Banner Dies. I used the new Let's Have a Word: Birthday Die in white right below to finish it off!
_____________________________________
This card uses the new set called Holding Hands. I kept it super simple as usual by die cutting a circle into the top panel and adding in the hand die cut, with a sheer sleeve die cut from Vellum. I heat embossed the wrinkle detail in the sleeve and then stamped the sentiment and added in the little bouquet of flowers. Super simple!
_____________________________________
Yesterday, I showed you a bouquet of flowers and today I am using it again! You guys. I LOVE this stamp set! This little bouquet is so so so easy to put together. I did all the blooms in yellow but you can definitely add in extra colors for each bloom. I did a full score line along the side and top of the card front and then added it to a card base where I had already stamped the same bouquet. Hard to see in the photo but you can see the bottom stems are on the card base too. Last, I used the new Bold Alpha to add in a simple, gray "smile". Love love this die set!!
