The Greetery - Garden Variety Day 1..

 Good morning!  I want to start off by telling you about my comment situation.  First off, my comments are moderated because I get a ton of spam.  The kind of spam that tells me about cholesterol medication, among others, and just weird bot comments so I filter those out.  If you leave a comment and don't see it, thats ok!  I see it and I will get it posted for you.  The other issue is weather or not you need a google account.  I have my comments set to "anyone" so technically you should be able to leave a comment with any type of login, but Blogger is a pain.  If you can't leave a comment and are not sure if you your name is posting along with you comment, please add your name and email address to the end of your comment. This way we can see who you are if your comment gets chosen as a winner!  I am sorry for the annoyance.  I have no idea why it doesn't work like it should.  I have googled and switched settings around and tried all the things but Blogger is a pain.  If you have any suggestions at this point, send me an email! :)

Hello friends!  I hope you are all having a wonderful May!  This month has been so crazy for me....I have hardly been in my craft room.  My oldest graduated high school and with all of that comes all the busy.  I am so happy to have this amazing release to share with you as it was the well needed time to sneak away into my craft room, even for a short time.  You are going to LOVE the Garden Variety Release so lets get started!

This first card uses the new Print Shop: Garden Goodness.  This is an AMAZING stamp, stencil and die combo to create these beautiful blooms.  

I pulled out some past favorites....Painterly Stripes Background Stamp, Sprinkled with Kindness Stamp set and the coordinating die, Sentiment Suite: Thinking of You Stamp Set, Postal Frame Die Set and a new die set that you will see more of tomorrow!  :)

The Greetery


It was so fun to stamp out all of these images and layer them all together to create this fun little garden themed card. 


This next card is another new Print Shop! The Greetery has several Print Shop stamp sets with stamps and stencils that work together to create an amazing image or even patterned paper.  This new one is called Print Shop: Daisy Days.


The Greetery


I used the stencils and coordinated die to color and cut out this main image.  There is a stamp set that adds more details but I chose to just use the stencils this time.  The possibilities are endless when it comes to using this print shop.  I used my favorite die....the Crimped Frame Die to cut out the white panel and then again to offset the Daisy Days die cut edge and then lined it up with the white panel.  I used some glossy red enamel dots to finish off each flower. 


Everything you see today and tomorrow will be available on Thursday, May 26th at 10am Eastern time.  You can click HERE to see it all!
