The Greetery – Spring Fever Collection – Day 2!

Hellloooooo! Welcome to Day Two of the new product/project reveals for The Greetery New Release! The new release for Spring 2021 is called Spring Fever! What do you think of everything from yesterday? Isn't it all so fun and pretty? I am excited for you to create too! SOOOON! Today is the final day of reveals, and all the new products will be available on Wednesday, March 10th at 10am EST on The Greetery Website!! Yesterday I shared three cards, and today I have two more cards for you! Thanks for joining me today!

My first card for today showcases the brand new Empty Grave stamp set and matching dies, and also the new Nordic Circles dies! (Yes, your favorite Nordic dies now come in circles!)…. I used the previously released Lily and Palm dies to feature that gorgeous sentiment. My finished card is a deep aqua card base in a 5" x 5" square shape. I used Bristol cardstock for all my elements because it's a bit thicker and really holds up to ink blending.

I heat embossed the sentiment with gold embossing powder and die cut it out with the matching die. I heat embossed the smaller "He is Risen" sentiment with gold onto a strip of olive green cardstock. I set those aside to build my florals…

These Lily and Palm Dies were released last spring and I LOVE them. Gosh, they are so beautiful!! Here's a close up of the flowers. I used a small sponge dauber and distress inks to color everything, and then went back with Copics and some splattered ink over them to look like Stargazer Lillies.

I die cut the largest size of the new Nordic Circles and ink blended pretty blue distress inks to serve as my 'ground' layer for the other vivid colors and the put some color behind the sentiment.

I really love the concept of having dies that match sentiments – it looks so professional like this!! A perfect cut every time, too. This is my go to, gorgeous color palette for Easter!

My final card for this release extravaganza features the brand new addition to the Print Shop Collection! The Print Shop Floral Frame stamp, die, stencil combo! SO beautiful! My finished card is an A2 kraft card base. I went with a soft vintage color palette for this card. The cardstock I used is cream instead of bright white and I used muted vintagey colors…. The sentiment is from another one of my favorite previously released sets – Comforting Commands.

I stenciled and stamped the frame and then splattered some gold ink onto it and die cut it out. I inked the edges using Antique Linen Distress Ink – to make it look a bit aged. The sentiment is stamped in dark brown ink instead of black – again for a vintage feel.

In this photo you can see the splatters and the inked edges. I glued on a tiny bow – I love some texture!! To make the top cream layer with the pretty edge, I used my Deckle Edge Paper Trimmer! It lends a bit of nostalgia too – like an old photo border. (Supplies are all linked at the bottom of my post)

I think this frame would be so pretty with invitation wording inside too – or maybe a Mother's Day sentiment? Just lovely!!
