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!

Another wonderful release. Can’t wait to see tomorrow’s sneak peak to see what else to add to my order!
Oh – I think it would be impossible to list one single favorite product from this last year. I pretty much love everything! I’m quite taken with the Botanicuts series. Loved all the Postmark/postal items. I thought the Speed Tagging collection was inspired! You are a genius with floral images and I love the seasonal themed collections – Budding Beauties, Sketches, etc. Nope – can’t pick just one. Happy Anniversary!
Such a tough choice to just one favorite but I think I’m going to go With Love at Christmas. It’s such a beautiful set!
The FLOWERS! Oh how I love the flowers….and the postage stamps, my mom was a postmaster so I really love them….the pine ones, the winter branches, omg I sit and just drool over the stamps! Love all the layering with die cuts and with ink……I have followed your stuff for a while so I do love most of it!
Wow, the floral balloon is gorgeous! Your cards are wonderful. It is so hard to choose a favorite from all your beautiful stamps and dies. However, I’ll choose Fleur Impressions because it was my first love! The seasonal Floral Sketches series would be a close runner up. But then each release produces new favorites!
I am pretty new to the brand but I have ordered 3 times from overseas already! I just love the layering of the stamps! Detailed, delicate and delightful! Keep up the good work and looking forward to the new release! 🙂
I love that floral on the large balloon!
I love anything floral from you! Happy birthday!!
Betsy, you are a rock star! I want everything!
Happy birthday! What a great release; your tag and cards are beautiful! I love the new Twisted Crepe Die and one of my favorite products is the Fresh Floral Background Stamp. 🙂
It’s difficult to choose an overall favorite, that said, my current favorite is the fresh florals and stencil set. As soon as I received this set I sat down and made three cards. Love so much, I’ve got the Fresh Floral Background stamp and dies in my cart, just waiting until Friday to add new products so I can order all at once.
It’s hard to believe its been a whole year! I couldn’t be more thrilled to be along for the ride. Congrats Betsy and team. I love the new collection and its a highlight each and every month. Xoxo
Wow, I love them all! But, the Nordic frames are one of my all time favourites! I reach for them all the time and they are in my “quick grab” bin of staple items that I always have close by. Xo
I can’t do it and please don’t make me! I love every single set that I have purchased this year and if my pocketbook allowed it, I would have even more b/c my wish list is SOOOOOO long. Happy 1st Birthday and keep them coming.
So sorry but in my excitement, I forgot that I commented yesterday so please delete my second post.
I have so many favorites that the list would be endless and will continue to be so if you create such amazing sets.
Oh this release is so gorgeous! I have several of your stamps and they are all so pretty. If I have to name one, the postal themed set is a favorite!
Fantastic job to the design team. It’s so hard to pick. I do love and will be getting the twisted crepe paper die. Can’t wait to see the rest. I know to move fast on the the things I truly love. I am still waiting for a chance to buy the Nordic frame die, been loving that since it came out and did not purchase it. Big mistake! I know I will get it eventually. I am on the list to be notified. As always everything is simply beautiful.
Such beautiful cards samples! Love the elegance of the floral balloon and the twisted crepe dies, so fun! My all time fave products are the Speed Tagging Stamps & Dies!
I love all your products, but the one I turn to over and over again is Cozy Cup. I run a Coffee Cafe for the school district and I love making cards and gifts for employees and customers with Cozy Cup. Wishing you lots of birthday blessings!! Cheers!!
It is hard to pick which product I love the most. I have used the lemon set a lot and I love your unique dies. You have amazing designs.
Oh I love the new rainbow! Such a cute take on the traditional!
I can’t wait til Friday! I am new to Greetery last release was my first time ordering. But I had my eye on the candy pops and purchased the collection along with some new release items. So my favorite so far is the candy pops!
The mason jar was my favorite product, but now it just might be that twisted crepe die. I can see so many uses for that!
Love this release. The cards are beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration.
The Birthday Blooms set is definitely on my list. I really enjoy how versatile your items are and that you can use them in other ways with the coordinating die cuts.
You’ve had so many fun products since you launched a year ago. I’m always excited to see what new thing you’ll bring to the crafting world. I would say my favorites are the care-a-van and Top Down Day.
Love everything, my favorite is the robin and wren set. Congratulations on your 1 year anniversary!
I’m speechless! Well, almost… The first balloon card with the mint background literally took my breath away when I saw it on IG. And it did again just now. I couldn’t’t figure out how the background was so perfect, with the coral flowers. I should have known: where there’s a Betsy, there’s a way!
Absolutely gorgeous!
The Birthday Blooms are gorgeous! I love your products and these beautiful cards!
There are so many favorites but right now I would have to say my favorite is Pine Blossom stamp and die!! This is going to be an awesome release Betsy!!!
Wow! I just discovered your company yesterday! I love everything!
Everything looks wonderful – that big balloon with the floral stamped in it looks so pretty. I am really liking that twisted crepe die too. Thank you!
I MUST have the crepe paper die!!!!!
I am in love with the balloons with the flowers!
Co granulation son one year! I love all your designs I always have but I think Print Shop Florals is the one that spoke to my heart! Really excited about Birthday Blooms too!
This is my first time visit the Greetery, so far I am loving this release and have put you on my wishlist.
Wish you a very happy birthday!! I love your roses die the mosy
Ummm, I’m gonna need everything on this post! LOVE
I am always a fan of your holiday collections and loved your fur & foliage stamp set and the tree trimmings add on to it! I would love to see some Halloween stamp sets from you this year.
I especially love the 3-D pinecone dies. They are made easier to execute by the helpful process videos that you release too. Congrats on your anniversary!
I love the floral design for the balloon stamp set, it’s such a different idea!
Wow, such awesome projects! Why am I just now discovering this company?!
I just love the Birthday Blooms set and the Balloon Bouquet set. but everything else is wonderful too! Such an awesome release!

Your designs are so mind blowing! Congratulations on your anniversary! Your creations with your products are also are so beautiful. So happy I have found your company! My favorite product (that I have been able to purchase) is Top Down Day….but I’m thinking Fresh Floral Stamp/stencil set will be right up there when it is back in stock 😉
Love the new Balloon Bouquet set as it is so pretty and unique. Very pretty.
I love all of it especially the twisted crepe dies. Those would be great to add for any sort of celebration.
