The Greetery - Confetti Encore Day 1...



 Hey there crafty friends!  I am so excited to be here today to share the latest Greetery Release called Confetti Encore.  I have 3 quick and simple projects to share today using the new goodies!


This first one was so fun to make using the new Celebration Streamers Stamp and Stencil.  The large background stamp creates the streamers and the stencils add in the shading.  SO much fun!!  I used the 3rd stencil in the set to add in 3D confetti with some embossing paste. I finished this card off with an adorable sentiment from the new Four Square Birthday Stamp Set.  After stamping the image in aqua ink, I stamped another layer of embossing ink and added some clear embossing powder on the sentiment to give it some extra shine.

Next up, I created a set of tags with the Four Square Birthday Stamp Set.  I used an older set of tags to create the set.  First, I hot foiled some white cardstock using the new Ticker Tape Hot Foil Plate, then I die cut the tags from that cardstock. I added a different sentiment from the Four Square set to each tag.  I used the same technique as the first card, adding in a layer of ink, and then embossing ink and powder to give the sentiments some shine.  I added each tag layered with another tag in a dark aqua cardstock and then finished each tag off with a ribbon/staple detail.  I love a good quick and easy tag!

Last up is a card with the Flourished Phrases: Birthday Suite. I grabbed a white card base and some pink striped paper.  Using my Arches Dies, I die cut the striped paper for the background. Next, I die cut a piece of white cardstock with the Flourished Phrases: Birthday Suite Die.  I stenciled on the Happy Birthday portion of the image, using a heavy hand along the bottom for some extra shading.  For the flourish stencil, I used gold Embossing Paste.  I love the extra detail and shine that the past makes.

A little info about commenting here on my blog....


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 will see it and I will get it posted for you.  

The other issue is wether 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 your 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 again... 

Blogger is a pain.

  107. Bo Gilmore tinagilmore86@gmail.com Hi Laurie. I love the colors you chose for your cards and tags. They all go so well together. Your streamers look so nice. I love that the 2 stencils allows you to shade parts, so the streamers look more 3-D and twisty. Your tags are just too cute. The gold foil to make it sparkle. I like the way you added your grosgrain ribbon. I can’t wait to see your project tomorrow.
