The Greetery – District Twelve/25 Collection – Week 4! The Christmas Confectionery!

Hi everyone! It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Time to continue with the Christmas 2026 Collection from The Greetery! This year’s collection is called District Twelve/25 and it’s MAGIC! There are so many new products! They are, as you would expect, classy and beautiful! It’s a huge release and this year Betsy decided to do something a little different with the release! We are week four now! And there are even more to come!

Today is the first day of the FOURTH week of the festivities! This week’s release is called Christmas Confectionery! A new sweet SUITE of products with a Christmas cookie theme! Stamps, dies, stencils and an embossing folder. It’s so perfect! The entire design team and Betsy are sharing projects today. Then, this part of the new release will be available for shopping TOMORROW 11/5! Next week, we’ll do it all again. WOOHOOO! This has been so fun to show you!

Today I’m sharing a card I made with the new products! Think pink and pastels and all the wonderfully cute Christmas themes – oh, and lots of sparkly glitter too!

(I WILL UPDATE WITH THE NEW ITEMS TOMORROW!)

My finished card is a white A2 card base. I die cut a soft pink A2 scallop die as my background for the pretty images. This card features all the parts of the Confectionery collection along with the brand new Laid Back Holiday stamps! I chose pink, soft green and aqua for my colors!

I started by stenciling the gorgeous images and both small and large blending brushes (with Distress Inks)…. Then I embossed the stenciled panel, and then die cut the images out (All with one die!!). Love love love it! I splattered on a generous amount of white paint snow….

I wanted my images to be very shimmery, but also I wanted to use chunky glitter. I ended up making my own custom glitter mix and it came out so great! I took an old container and mixed Rock Candy chunky glitter and some super fine glitter and some other random glitter from my stash. SO fun!! I generously glued the glitter on all the pieces.

The sentiment was heat embossed in festive gold embossing powder into the center of the pink panel. Then I arranged the ‘cookies’ around the sentiment using foam tape. I added a few clear gems at the end.

    I really like the soft pink you used for your scallop die for your cookie background. The cookies stand out so well and the colors go nicely with the pink. And of course one needs “sugar” on their cookies! Beautiful card.
