The Greetery - Recollective Holiday Day 3...

It’s day 3 of The Greetery and this release, Recollective Holiday, is AMAZING!!  Today’s stamps and dies are SO super cute and so fun to work with.  

I have 2 projects to share….plus today’s awesome giveaway for 2, $50 gift certificates to The Greetery!  Keep scrolling to see the full list of stops…just leave a comment on each blog for more chances to win!

Today’s first project showcases the new stamp set called Cheer Mobile.  This adorable little car, and all the details that go with it, are so fun to stamp up!  When I saw the tree in the set, I instantly thought of the Christmas Eve Stamp set to pair with it.  I had to make a little Christmas Tree Lot!  I created my own Stencil for the little hill and then stamped the trees, light poles and string of lights from the Christmas Eve Set.  I added in some stenciled clouds using the Silver Lining Die. (I made my own Stencils that I will share on IG!)  Next, I stamped up the little car, added in some details with colored pencils and then added it to the card front with the tree on tip.  I added in a die cut sentiment to finish off the cards.  

Next up is a fun little Christmas ornament using the new die set called 3D Hatchback.  When assembled, this little car will work for a treat box, an ornament or even a place card holder at the Christmas Dinner table!  It is so easy to put together and add in all the fun little details included in the die set. 

 

I used the Holiday Hatchback Topper: Skis Die to add in some decoration to the top of the card.  I found a little wreath in the Curio: Attic Ornaments Die and added that to the skis with a little piece of twine to create the ornament.  Super easy!

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...

The Greetery - Recollective Holiday Day 2...

 Good morning!  I am back with day 2 of reveals for The Greetery.  There are just so many fun things to share that we have 3 whole days of reveals!!  Everything you see this week will be available on Friday, October 6th at 10am EST. 

The Greetery will be having a giveaway today.  2 $50 Gift Certificates are up for grabs, so don’t forget to leave a comment on each stop along the way!  There is a full list at the bottom of this post so keep scrolling!

Let’s get started with The Greetery's Recollective Holiday!

This first card was so fun to make.  The Plaid Tidings Sweet is a combo of Stamps, Stencils and dies that all work to great an amazing holiday sentiment.  

To create this card, I stenciled the sentiment and then used the coordinating die cut to cut it out.  Next, I stenciled the shadows on another panel and used the shadow die cut to cut that out.  I cut out another panel in fun foam to pop the letters up to create a fun dimensional sentiment.  After adding that to the Postage Frame Die, I added in the holly and the rest of the sentiment, before layering it onto a green card base.  

If I have ever had a stamp set that feels sentimental, it is this next one.  Bright and Bubbly is a set with the cutest vintage Christmas lights.  It makes me think of my Grandma's Christmas lights.  I just love the stamp set and all the details but the die set is just as fun!  I made this super 3D card using the dies with some gold cardstock.  I layered it on to a Pine and Berry stamped background.  I used a sentiment from the Bright and Bubbly Stamp set to finish off the card.  

I have one last card using the Christmas Sampler.  I love the stencils in this set as they create an adorable little scene….but you know me!  I had to go and think outside the box.  I used the top and bottom of the stencil for a background border so I could use the Plaid Tidings Very Merry Stamp Set one more time!  I just love that large bold sentiment!

Click HERE to see the full release that will be available on Friday, October 6th at 10am EST.  So glad you stopped by today.  Don’t forget to stop in tomorrow for one more day of reveals before release day!  Have a great day!

The Greetery - Recollective Holiday Day 1...

Hey there friends!  It’s time for the latest release over at The Greetery called Recollective Holiday.  We have 3 days to share all the goodies and then release day falls on Friday, October 6th at 10am EDT. 

Today I have 3 projects to share with you.  Betsy’s amazing stamps and dies are so full of detail and jaw dropping design.  I love to pull out my clean and simple design style and create projects that you can recreate!

There are 2, $50 Gift Certificates that will be given away today. Leave a comment on each stop on today’s hop for more chances to win! There is a full list at the bottom so keep scrolling to check that out and see all of today’s projects. 

This first card and tag are made from the new set called Wrapped in Love.  This set is full of the most adorable wrapping paper rolls, scissors, tags and tape. The possibilities are endless with this stamp set.  

 

To create this card, I stamped out the roll of wrapping paper on kraft cardstock and then added the grid image on the large inside panel.  After layering it onto a white, scored card base, I added in all the little fun details. I love the scissors and that cute little tape dispenser.  To finish off the card, I added the coordinating “wrapped” sentiment from the new sentiment set.

I created a coordinating tag with more rolls of wrapping paper and another pair of those adorable scissors.  Super easy!

Next up is a card showcasing the new stamp set called Comfort and Joy Sentiments and Winterland Layers.  The combination of the 2 sets makes for the perfect Christmas Card!  To create this card, I used a light gray card base and scored lines on 2 sides. I stamped and die cut the branch image and lined it with another die cut of fun foam.  This creates the perfect dimensional.  I did the same with part of the sentiment, stamping the rest directly on the card front.  I love the quick and easiness of this card!

The last card for today is super clean and simple.  I used the new Big Beautiful Bow Die set to create this amazing 3D Bow and gift look on the front of a white card base.  I added in one stem from the Botanicuts Rowan Branch Die.  This die set is amazing and the finished look is so fun!  I added a simple sentiment from the Wrapped in Love Sentiment Additions Stamp Set to finish off the card.

Thanks... with LOTS of Sunflower SHINE!!

The Spellbinders September Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month Club is here!!  I LOVE LOVE this hot foil plate!!  These sunflowers are so pretty and SO easy to color!

First, I hot foiled this gorgeous plate with Gold Foil.  I used my Altenew Alcohol Markers to add in the color.  The kit comes with the coordinating edger die so it was super easy to cut out.  I added the panel to an A2 sized card stamped with a text background.  I finished if off with a quick and easy sentiment. 

Check out all of the September Clubs by clicking HERE!

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!
