I had so much fun creating with these new products, so I have so many projects to show you!
My first card uses the pretty new Birthday Blooms set. Besides the pretty sentiments, I just love the floral pieces in this set! They have a beautiful flow to them that make them so easy to use…they arrange beautifully around the sentiments from the set (or others from your collection) or to make full backgrounds like I did here!
[imagelinks id=”109″]
I just had so much fun stamping these florals in all bright Distress Oxide colors. The sentiments are of course also from the Birthday Blooms set. I stamped the “its your day to” onto a Sentiment Suite: Basics banner die.
Like I mentioned, the little floral bits from Birthday Blooms are so fun to tuck in and around sentiments. I thought they’d also pair wonderfully with the Written in Ribbons sentiments, and I just love how that turned out!
[imagelinks id=”116″]
I’ve been seeing lots of blue around in home decor and other trends and I just love it. So I pulled out several shades of Distress Oxide blues and just went to town stamping all of these floral bits. The Nordic Frames dies seem to fit just perfectly with the blues!
My next card uses the new Balloon Bouquet set along with a sentiment from Birthday Blooms. I stamped the pretty floral balloon from Balloon Bouquet in a soft mint, with coral and black.
[imagelinks id=”110″]
I used the Big Balloons die to cut the large balloon from the Balloon Bouquet set, and I also cut a few of the smallest balloons to cluster in the background along with some cloud borders cut using the Silver Lining die. I used one of the pretty sentiments from Birthday Blooms to finish it off, along with a few sequins for some sparkle.
My next card again uses Balloon Bouquet for a bright and fun “congrats” card. Perfect for a grad or anniversary or more!
[imagelinks id=”108″]
I cut several of the large balloons from white cardstock and stacked them up to give my main balloon lots of dimension. I also stamped the new Ticker Tape Background, which I heat embossed then sponged with Tumbled Glass ink. I clustered lots of balloons from the Big Balloons die in the background, and added some Twisted Crepe streamers.
My next project uses the Balloon Bouquet set to create an ensemble perfect for a bridal shower or birthday. I went with shades of coral, gold, and gray. I love the look of the taller cards, which is just perfect for the jumbo balloon from the Balloon Bouquet set – it’s a great focal point that doesn’t need a whole lot more!
[imagelinks id=”111″]
The Ticker Tape Background was heat embossed with gold in the background, and I cut some Twisted Crepe streamers from gold metallic cardstock. For the tag I used the Balloon Bouquet die to cut just the floral design. I adhered it to a circle die that you’ll be hearing more about tomorrow to create a pocket for a tag from the Speed Tagging die. I love how that turned out! I’d love to make them in lots of colors!
My next ensemble uses both the Birthday Blooms and Balloon Bouquet sets – the flowers from both are actually the same (just on a smaller scale on the Balloon Bouquet set) so they go very nicely together! This time I used a much more muted color scheme of mint, gray, and gold. Very different for me, but I love the sophisticated look.
[imagelinks id=”114″]
The “happy birthday” card uses a large scalloped circle die that you’ll see more of tomorrow! It was the perfect base for creating this pretty focal point. The “make a wish” card uses two of the floral clusters from the Balloon Bouquet set – I love being able to use just that pretty flower cluster, which adds so much versatility to that set!
The Balloon Bouquet set is great for so many different occasions – here I used it to create a sweet baby girl card.
[imagelinks id=”115″]
I stamped the balloon in shades of pink and green, and heat embossed the “welcome baby” sentiment from the set with white embossing powder. For the background, I added a bit of softer watercoloring. The frame was cute with the Crimped Frame die, and I added some Twisted Crepe streamers and sequins to finish it off. These jumbo balloons make such great focal points – you could stamp a bunch in all different colors to have on hand – add a sentiment when you’re ready to put it to use and you’ll be able to whip a card together in no time!
Finally today I have a couple of bright and cheery cards using the adorable new Think Happy stamp and cut combo. This rainbow and flowery cloud are just so fun to create with!
[imagelinks id=”112″]
For this first card, I created a cloud background by using the Silver Lining die as a mask to do some sponging – so fun and easy to do! Just cut a couple of cloud strips from a scrap of copy paper, sponge over with some ink, move it down a bit on your card front and repeat. Over my background I added the Think Happy rainbow and cloud. My cloud is raining some flower confetti which was done with the diecuts from the cloud mixed with some sequins. I thought this sentiment from the Top Down Day set was the perfect way to finish it off!
This next card uses colored pencils to add lots of color to the rainbow and all of the little flowers in the cloud. I had fun just sitting and coloring all of those little bits and pieces.
[imagelinks id=”113″]
I once again used the Silver Lining die to sponge the clouds in the background. The sentiment was done with a combination of the stamps from the Think Happy set paired with the Let’s Have a Word: Happy die. I added some more small flower diecuts floating around through the air around the sentiment.
I had so much fun creating these projects! I hope you enjoyed them looking at them as much as I enjoyed creating them!

Happy Anniversary! Love the new product line. The balloon bouquet is so pretty!
I forgot to add my favorite product. I have so enjoyed all the botanicuts. I have been using the pines and boughs recently and really enjoyed the roses!
what an awesome release. My Favorite is the crepe die. Unique and really versatile. Every project is so pretty!
Such a fun new release. I really like the Crepe dies. So fun!! Happy 1st Birthday!!!
Most favorite product to date? You have to be joking; how is it possible to pick a fave? I love the ‘Speed Tag’ set and the ‘Pot Pouri’ and ‘Macarme Hanger’ and ‘Sealed With A Kiss’ and ‘Pine Blossom’ and, and, and I am loving the new product reveal…wonderful design ahead for us!
Happy anniversary and congrats on an amazing year of beautiful and unique products! I think my favorite products from this first year are the Hand in Hand and Fir & Foliage sets because using them I was able to perfectly recreate a photo I took a few years ago of my son walking with his son on a path in one of our parks!
I LOVE all of your floral stamp and die sets. You just can’t make an ugly card no matter how non talented you are! Can’t wait to see all of your new items. Hope you and your family are safe during these challenging times. Thanks for bringing us some joy 🙂
Amazing release so far! The Balloon Bouquet is such a fun, new idea!
I have many balloon and birthday stamps and dies and wasn’t much interested UNTIL I read your blog. OMG, you’ve done it again! I’m off to fill my cart….
Happy 1st Birthday, Betsy! So happy for you. Uh oh, it looks like I am going to have a long shopping list as I am loving everything so far!!
Happy Birthday! The Greetery has produced so many amazing products this year, but my favorite has been Bottled Up. It can be dressed for any occasion and is so easy to use.
Happy 1st Birthday! I have so many Greetery sets I love, but the ones that get used the most are Bottled Up & Just Mason Around.
Happy Birthday to The Greetery! I am so happy that your business appears to be very successful! Betsy, you are a fabulous designer and I love everything you do. It’s so very hard to pick a favorite. I have many of your products on my favorites list to be purchase as I can manage. My “in stash” favorites so far are Signed and Sealed and AlphaBuds.
Your examples are stunning. You are simply genius in your designs! Love them all!
These samples and the products are absolutely stunning! Congratulations on your birthday/anniversary!
Happy Anniversary! These are all just wonderful stamps and dies! Thank you for all of the inspiration on the hop. Well done!
Favorites this first year would be Christmas Eve, Fresh Air, Winter Sketches and Budding Beauties. From this release my favorite is the Balloon Bouquet set. Really though, all your designs are fabulous!
Loving the new sneak peeks. Balloons are definitely on my list.
Most fav product(s) to date? Tough to decide – I’ll go with the ones I use the most – I’ll have to categorize a little bit…for dies, Crimped frames; for stamps, Signed & Sealed; for Wow factor cards, Terrarium and Succulents dies and Pot-pourri with Macra-made fillers.
Can’t wait to get my hands on this month’s Twisted Crepe and Balloon dies!
The rainbow and flowers set is so cheery…like all the cards you made with it.
Love this festive release and everything is so beautiful! It’s really hard to say which is my all-time favorite, but the succulents with terrarium make such awesome cards and because succulents come in so many colors, they are never ending with possibilities.
Looking at all the new lovely stamps and dies, I honestly don’t know what I would pick first. I do know my favorite of the products released in year 1– Bottled up stamps and die sets. It took me several tries to get them, but they were worth the wait.
Wow!!
What a wonderful first day of the collection! More beautiful flowers! My favorite go from your first year? Too many to mention. But I do love everything from your last release — I bought it all!
This release is so versatile for all occasions to celebrate and send happy thoughts. My favorite set to date is one of the early ones, the Fleur Impressions set. Happy Anniversary to The Greetery!
Oh my goodness! Every single release is perfection! Just when I think I don’t need another rainbow stamp or die set, you come along with something totally new and unique! I’m not sure I can pick just one favorite set in the past year, but all of the layered flowers are winners with me.
My favorite of all time is the Simple Things set that you made with the eucalyptus. When I saw that on Pinterest I had to find the company that made it. If not for that stamp and die set I might never have discovered The Greetery. And it is perfect to use for almost every occasion. Can’t wait to see all of this release!
WOW! Pure happiness. Your talent never ceases to amaze me Betsy! Thank you!
Oh everything is so wonderful, Betsy! It’s so hard to pick a favorite because everything has been such a delight. Totally changed my crafting world, and made me try new techniques that I never would have before. I will have to say BotaniCuts Pine Bough (and the whole series) made me fall off my chair with all of the lovely things you created! I love Silent Night, too, and Print Shop Fresh Floral Stamps and Stencils. See, I told you it was too hard!!!
So much better than I expected and I expect perfection from the Greetery! It is hard to out do perfection but you do everytime! I love the balloons and crepe twists
Everything is gorgeous and can be used for so many occasions! I love the font for the words. I love the crepe paper streamers. Happy Birthday to the Greetery! I love your style and artistic talent, Betsy. Your products have been a joy to create with. Here’s to many more years.
Wow! Congratulations for an amazing year!
So hard to choose a product! I’ve honestly have loved it all and want every single one in my home collection. Lol! But I got say since I’m about to be a first time grandma I absolutely ❤️ this new release since it includes the “welcome baby”. 🤗
Congratulations on your anniversary. My favorite to date is, like many have said before, difficult to say. My favorite to stamp has been, hands down, Print Shop Fresh Florals. However, my favorite finished project was made using the Pine Blossom stamp set. I do love them all!
Never been so excited for a new release, especially in this time of cabin fever! I’m so happy to have discovered your amazing company when I did- I’ve been getting all my favorites from the past lookbooks. Which PS. THANK YOU so much for having this feature it’s so helpful to get the creative juices flowing. My favorites are harvest home, Bountiful Wreath, Written in Ribbons and the Nordic Dies!
From what you have reviewed so far this is a must have collection. Your designs and then the way you incorporate previous stamps and dies provides for a lot of inspiration. Hope there will be a purchase everything button this Friday. Can’t wait.
Betsy, you never disappoint. Happy first year! I don’t know about others, but I’d love to see a post from you sometime on the past year–your ups and downs, fears and joys, of starting your own business etc. As far as my favorite product so far this first year, I’ll have to go with Fleur Impressions–but it was a tough decision! Congrats to you for following your dream and finding success!
Happy 1st Anniversary…the industry is fortunate to have The Greetery! My favorite is very simply… Nordic die frames. I use them all the time.
Happiest Anniversary, dear Betsy!! I have ordered from each beautifully curated collection in The Greetery’s first year and have SO many favorites! My vintage-loving, gardening heart truly loves filling the Just Mason Around jar and Bottled Up bottles with florals and greenery all year long. It feels just like my morning walks through my cottage garden to fill my own Mason jars and vintage bottles with nature’s blessings!
Today I’m really excited about the new Twisted Crepe dies. You’ve thought of everything! It will be such fun to create streamers with two or three colors. I just love the look of your soft, watercolored streamers, too. They will be perfect for so many celebrations ~ school colors for graduation, baby showers, anniversary celebrations, birthdays, making invitations, thank you cards, and more. Can’t wait to see tomorrow’s surprises!💗
Love the crepe paper twists streamers.
BotaniCuts Lily die has been my favorite so far. It’s a beautiful die and I often find myself using it. Even though I love all the BotaniCuts, this one by far is my favorite.
Of course, all are fantastic! I would say that Hand in Hand is a favorite. Congratulations and happy birthday to the Greetery!
I’m sold! Beautiful examples. Happy Anniversary to a wonderful company!
I absolutely love this release, it’s so fun, whimsical and beautiful. My favorite release has been the Christmas release, especially the Christmas Eve stamp and die set, I love it and bought most of that release. Congratulations on your 1st Anniversary of The Greetery!
WOW! Where do I start! I LOVE it ALL! I guess I better get it all! Beautful projects today! LOVE the Greetery!
Absolutely love the balloons. So realistic!
Happy Birthday! You have done a beautiful job once again. Don’t know how you keep coming up with your wonderful designs.
You continue to amaze me! Happy 1-Year Anniversary! There will be many more wonderful years, no doubt!!
WOW! An amazing release…I can’t wait to see tomorrow’s release. I have been loving your “Budding Beauties Spring” collection combined with “Bottled Up”.
I think I am going to be broke! I NEED everything. Everything is absolutely beautiful!! WOW!
Hi. So far the Fresh Floral from last month are my favorite. I just love all of the options with the stencils and stamps. this may change as I see more of this month’s release
