Welcome back to day two of the new release reveals for THE GREETERY! The Handiwork Collection continues today with the design team features of the rest of the new products! I hope you're as excited as I am, because I love this release, and especially today's cards!! I have threeeee more cards to share and they all have a nostalgic flavor to them… My grandma was the one who taught me how to embroider and cross stitch and crochet. She always had a needle in her hand and was always making something. Those things warm my heart now, at my age, and I am drawn to stitching and crocheting. Today's Greetery products give me the warm fuzzies…. Let's go!
THE NEW RELEASE DAY IS FRIDAY JULY 28TH AT 10AM EST!
My first card for today features the brand new Notionable Die set and the brand new Stitched Sentiments stamps and dies. My finished card is an A2 cream card base, layered with red, cream and a touch of gingham. My top panel is also cream cardstock (for a warmer feel than bright white) die cut with the Postal Dies.
Here's a side view and close up of the pretty new sentiments stamps and dies….Love it SEW much!!
The Notionable die set has all of these elements: a pin holder, scissors, threads, thimble, needle, and MORE!!! Gosh, it's awesome! To start my card I sat down and die cut out everything!! Then after they were all cut out, I decided on my layout and which things to use.

I die cut the tomato from pretty felt to make it look realistic! I backed the red felt with cardstock to make it easier to attach to the card. It's so dang adorable!! I used matte silver and glitter gold cardstock to make the scissors. They are held together with a brad – and guess what? They actually move like real scissors!!
I added some pearl pins, and red buttons from my crafty stash, and of course some little hearts…

See that cool needle and thread?? Love it!!! Betsy thought of eveything in this die set.
Next up is a vintage sewing machine card that features the brand new Sew Vintage Dies, the brand new Oval Hoopla Dies, the brand new Aida Cloth Texture Plate, and the brand new Stitched Sentiments stamps! My finished card is a horizontal A2 card base made from cream cardstock. I used the Patchwork Die with vintage text paper for the background…then the hoop. This hoop is the larger of the two ovals in the Oval Hoopla Set!
When I first saw this die set, I was like WOW. This is so super cool and detailed!! It was fun to make!! I die cut the sewing machine from black cardstock and then heat embossed the details in gold embossing. It looks real, doesn't it!? And the tiny details make everything just right….
I again used the Aida Cloth Texture Die for the inside of my hoop. The sewing maching looks just right in there! I added some embellishments from my stash – buttons and a butterfly, and some hearts too. Each detail is a separate die so you can make everything a different color – the pink thread, the gold dials… And can we talk about how the thread winds into the needle??? Genius!!

Here are some detail photos….
I stamped the sentiment in black on a stitched rectangle. Such a sweet sentiment, right?? I love everything about this card!

And, my final card for release week…. This card features the brand new Rose Tapestry Stencil Set and the brand new Stitched Sentiments stamps. These new stencils = WOWZA!!!! This is a dream!!! How cool is this look??? My finished card is a white A2 card base, layered with tiny gingham and then my stenciled panel. I stamped the sentiment on a vellum strip because I didn't want to cover up any of that beautiful design.
Here's a side view of my layers…. Just a few pearl accents for this card – nice and simple.

I used Stazon Ink and my MISTI to line up the sentiments perfectly…
This is supremely cool – don't you think?? Can't wait to make more, and in different colors! I'm thinking maybe a purple???

I rarely use cream card stock, and I’m not sure the reason because I love your results. The notions and sewing machine all look so realistic, especially your felt pin cushion and two-toned scissors. The vellum sentiment is ideal for your beautiful rise tapestry, Wanda!
