Christmas Time - The Greetery Day 3...

 Welcome to day 3 of The Greetery's Christmas Time Collection Reveal.  Today is the last day of sneak peeks before tomorrow's release, Thursday, October 6th at 10 EDT. Yay for release day!

Today's new products are so stinkin' cute!  It's all about baking!  This first card was made with the stamps from the Bake it Merry Stamp Set and their coordinating dies....

To create this card, I used the Graham Cracker Cuts Die to add a fun layer of cookie in the background.  I added it to a piece of red glitter cardstock so that sparkle would shine through.  I built up the the little cake pan and cookies and sentiment, along with the oven mitt and spatula....agh!  All the cutest details!

Another adorable new addition to the Greetery is called Bake Someone Happy!  Check out this adorable treat box....

It's amazing how easy this is to put together!  All of the detail dies are included in the die set.  The burners, the handles, the over knobs....all the way to the cookie sheet and the cookies! There is a coordinating stamp set to add details onto the oven, as well as, coordinating sentiments.

Today is when I would normally do the Greetery IG Live, but I am a band mom today at my daughter's first marching band competition of the season!  I will be on The Greetery's Instagram bright and early tomorrow (Thursday) at 8am CST to show you all the new products.  Stop by and say hi!

Don't forget to leave comments on all the blogs today for your chance to win 1 of 2, $50 gift certificates to The Greetery!

Altenew Rustic Charm Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hi friends!  I am here today with a new card showcasing a brandy new stamp set from Altenew's Rustic Charm Collection, available now over at the shop!

Today I am using the All is Bright Stamp Set.  This stamp set works as a background stamp.  It is so fun to add in the bulbs in different colors!  I took it a step further and did some fussy cutting to create this card....

I masked off the edges of the card and added in a little bit of ink blending. I adde foam squares to the back of the light bulbs and added it to the card.  After stamping the sentiment on the side of the card front, I added in Stickles to each of the centers of the bulbs for a little shine!  This was a fun card to make for sure!

Christmas Time Collection - The Greetery Day 2...

Today is day 2 of the Christmas Time Collection Reveal at The Greetery!  This amazing new release will be available on Thursday, October 7th at 10am EDT.  Until then we have today and one more day of sneak peeks to share!  Check out The Greetery blog for all of the details on today's products.

Today I am sharing the latest in Curio Collection and the additions....but I am sharing only the additions part today!  The new stamps called Ornament Box Top Stamps were created to work as a box top for the new Curio Ornament Dies.  You can create your own vintage ornament box with the dividers.  They are adorable!  BUT when I saw these stamps, I instantly saw the perfect Christmas Card Photo Frame.  How fun is this?

I stamped several in gray and red and then used the coordinating die to create the frame.  I added my photo behind the frame using ATG.  It was the perfect match for a 4x6 photo...trimmed down just a tad!  I made photo cards using an A2 card base, as well as a basic photo card with one layer.  I will share more of these on the IG Live over at the Greetery on Thursday morning! 

This next card uses the new Christmas Time Elements.  These new dies work together to create a scene in an hourglass.  There is a city scene and a country scene.  Included in the country scene is this perfect nativity.....

I kept the card very clean using only a bit of blue ink for the background and then white for all the elements.  I added in a banner sentiment from Banner and Bough right through the middle.  It was the perfect coordinating sentiment!

Don't forget to leave comments along the hop today.  The Greetery is giving away $50 gift certificates to 2 lucky winners, chosen from the comments left along the stops on today's hop.

Christmas Time Collection - The Greetery Day 1...

 It's Christmas Time at The Greetery!  I am so excited to share 3 days of reveals before release day on Thursday, October 7th at 10am EDT.   Check out the full details over at The Greetery Blog!

One of my favorite things from this release is called Winterberry Bouquet Stamp, Stencil and Die Combo. It is so easy to use and it creates the most beautiful focal point for your card.  

To create this card, I used a black marker and added in a black frame around the card front.  Next, I stamped and stenciled up those gorgeous berries!  I die cut them along with a piece of fun foam for dimension.  So easy!  I added it to the card and then finished it off with a sentiment from the new Opposites Attract: Christmas with their coordinating dies. 

This next card showcases another favorite....the Cathedral Die.  This window die has a ton of possibilities but I had to keep it nice and bright and simple!

To create this card, I made a mask so I knew right were the window die could go.  I used the tree from Fir and Foliage No. 2 Stamp set.  I added in the Cathedral die popped up on foam tape for some dimension.   I used the Opposites Attract: Christmas for another of the fun sentiments.  I love the original Opposites Attract and it is so fun to have the Christmas version now too!

I hope you have enjoyed my projects today.  I know the rest of the team will have things to share that will make our jaws drop!  Here are some stops to make....
