Hi creative and crafty friends! It’s my turn today on The Greetery Blog! I hope you enjoyed the new release and got some fun things to craft with!! Especially after that new release, I feel that Spring is in the air! At my house in Northern California, we have tons of daffodils and tulips blooming, and the trees are so full of beautiful blossoms. Renewal is coming…. Easter is coming…. Today is Lucky’s birthday (my sweet kitty turns 8 today!) And it’s St. Patrick’s Day! I am excited to make some Spring cards full of pretty colors and floral themes. For my project for today I made a purple, flowery, vintage-y, texture filled card with lots of Greetery supplies. More is more!
My finished card is an A2 cream card base, layered with purple gingham. For my cream background layer, I thought it would be fun to see if that gorgeous Rosemal Reflections Embossing Folder would work with the A2 Arches. Well, guess what? They go together perfectly! I die cut the A2 arch and then embossed it. I gently inked over the embossed portions to give more detail. Next I die cut out all the pieces of the Rosemal Reflections Jumbo dies – floral spray. I inked all the pieces with matching Distress Inks and then splattered on gold paint.

I die cut the Scripty Hellow dies form both purple cardstock and vellum and layered them together. For the secondary smaller sentiment, I stamped the sentiment in purple ink onto cream paper. I also stamped and die cut out some postage stamps from the Postal Modern Set.

For my finishing touches I added a pretty gold glitter bow, and some purple pearl embellishments. I attached everything to the card using foam squares. It all came together in a vintage way!
That’s it for my project for today! I hope you have a fantastic and creative day! Wishing you all the best. It’s my pleasure to share with you every month. It was so great to just share another beautiful release with you! Blessings to you and your families. I will see you soon… In the meantime, happy crafting! XOXO
