The Greetery's Handiwork Collection - Day 2

It is Day 2 of the Handiwork Collection Reveal's over at The Greetery!  This amazing release will be live and available for purchase, tomorrow, Friday, July 28th at 10am EST.  I have 3 new cards to share so keep scrolling to check them out.  Don't forget to leave a comment here for your chance to win 1 of 2 $50 gift Certificates to The Greetery!

Let me show you today's cards! 

This first card is my favorite!  I love love this sewing machine!!  I die cut and stamped and heat embossed all the details and then added to a little 3D shelf.  I layered those onto a masked oval using the Hoopla Oval Die and Inserts to create the background.  Then I layered on the machine and all those gorgeous details!  Love these new sets so much!!

This next card uses the Stitched Scallops Note Card Die.  I love these die set!  It would make a fun layer on a card or just as is....the perfect little note card!  I masked a square on the card base and stamped the Embroidered Background Stamp.  I used a sentiment from the Stitched Sentiments Stamp and Die Set.  To finish off the card, I added in a little spool of thread and that adorable little needle.

One last card to showcase the Rose Tapestry Stencil.  This stencil covers a full A2 sized card and is just gorgeous!  I cut it down to the oval to pair it with the Hoopla dies and then added in all the notions from the Notionable Die Set.  THOSE SCISSORS!!  They really move!!  

Come see me tomorrow over on The Greetery's Instagram for a full product review!

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.

The Greetery's Handiwork Collection - Day 1

Welcome to day of a seriously amazing release over at The Greetery called Handiwork Collection.  We are showcasing some new products today.....all of which will be available on Friday, July 28th at 10am EST.  Click HERE to see the full release at that time!

This first card showcases the Embroidered Blooms die. There is so much detail in this die set and it works perfectly with any of the new products. I used the bloom die itself to make a little gold foiling in the background and then built the little bloom up and around it.

Finished it off with a sentiment

from Stitched Sentiment Stamp Set.  Love that sticked look in the large hello!

This next card features the Aida Cloth Texture Plate in the background with the Hoopla Round Die and the Hoopla Round Die Inserts.  I added in the Stitched Sentiment Die along the top and picked up an old favorite, Floral Delicacy, to create the blooms.  

I added in some new details from the Notionable Dies....which you will learn more about tomorrow!  :)

Last but not least, this little bouquet is from the Floral Sampler Set.  All of this fun stitched details but all with stamps!  Super simple!  I arraigned the bouquet on the Aida Cloth Texture Plate Background and added another Stitched Sentiment Die on top.  I finished it off with the Curio Cover Die for the frame and then some little clear dots. 

See the FULL July Release by clicking HERE!  It will be live Friday, July28th at 10am EDT. 

I hope you have enjoyed today’s cards!  Stop back by tomorrow for one more day of reveals!

It's My Party {Spellbinders}...

 My sweet friend Carissa Wiley has her very own collection over at Spellbinders called It's My Party and it is SO much fun!!!  It is filled with the perfect party hot foil plates, sentiments, stencils and a stamp set.

Check out the full It's My Party Collection by clicking HERE!

Let me show you a couple cards I made using several things from the collection.

To create this first card, I scored a white card base ever 1/2".  then I hot foiled the main ballon plate from the Party Ballons set.  I ink blended into each balloon using the coordinating stencil and masks included in the Balloon Bouquet Designs Stencil Set.  I popped them up on to the white card base with foam tape and then added in the black foiled "Congrats" and the pink foiled "It's Party Time", both from the It's My Party Glimmer Sentiments. Super quick and easy!

I wanted to use that awesome balloon stamp so I created a coordinating card....

One this card, I heat embossed the balloon swag with Gold Embossing Powder and then added a scored frame on the other side of the card.  I hot foiled the sentiment from the Giant Party Ballon set and added it to the card with some foam tape.  Another super simple, coordinating card!

This collection as SO many possibilities to create.  I love the little leaves that come in the Party Ballons set....you could make cherries, oranges or peaches or even apples with that fun little detail.

Are you new to hot foiling?

Spellbinders has a platform called Glimmer Hot Foil System.  This platform heats up metal plates called Glimmer Plates.  These glimmer plates come in ALL different types....sentiments, florals, backgrounds, graphic details etc....and add the most gorgeous foiling detail to your cards.  And the foils?  There are LOTS of different colors to chose from!

Here are some links to help point you in the right direction....

Glimmer Hot Foil System

Glimmer Hot Foil Rolls

Glimmer Hot Foil Plates

The Glimmer Hot Foil System works great with a Platinum 6 Die Cut machine from Spellbinders but also works with other die cut machines. You can click HERE to see a compatibility chart.  

First you heat up the platform and your glimmer plate on the Glimmer System Platform.  Then you add in the foil and the cardstock and run it thorough your die cut machine.  Once you pull off the foil negative, the magic happens!  That foil that is set on your cardstock and the results are just gorgeous!
