I’m excited to share some projects with you!
My first projects uses the Sprinkled with Kindness watering can, filled with Budding Beauties: Summer blooms.
[imagelinks id=”131″]
I stamped the watering can using Cracked Pistachio Oxide ink and layered the bouquet over a Crimped Frame die. I also tucked in several eucalyptus sprigs using the new Petite Eucalyptus set – I just love the size of those smaller sprigs. So perfect for bouquet building. I put a Windowpane Plaid panel behind everything just for a little extra interest.
My next projects has a much softer feel. I wanted to mimic the look of an old tin watering can with a bit of rust. I stamped it using Hickory Smoke Oxide ink and sponged just a bit of Rusty Hinge ink onto the edges of the image when stamping to give it a bit of a rusty look.
[imagelinks id=”132″]
I filled the watering can with some Petite Eucalyptus sprigs and placed a bouquet of daisies from the Budding Beauties Summer set at the base. Notice the “shiplap” at the bottom below the watering can? I used the Create-a-Crate die to cut those wood planks – I love that the bits and pieces from the Create-a-Crate die set are great for cards as well! The sentiment used here is also from the Sprinkled with Kindness set.
My next project again uses Budding Beauties Summer and Petite Eucalyptus. I wanted to create a one-layer card this time, so I stamped the bouquet of daisies around the outer edge of my panel, and filled in with some Petite Eucalyptus sprigs.
[imagelinks id=”130″]
I also created a cute flower crate using the Create-A-Crate die and embellished it with some of the daisies (and also a small flower cluster from a set you’ll be seeing more of tomorrow). Both sentiments on these projects are from the Sprinkled With Kindness set.
Next up is a super summery project that combines several of the new sets with the Lemon Blossom set we released last summer! I still love those lemons, and they look wonderful with the new peaches!
[imagelinks id=”133″]
I stamped a soft pink watering can using Sprinkled With Kindness, and filled in around it with lots of juicy, summery fruits. The peaches are of course from our new Print Shop: Peachy Keen set. I added just a bit of stenciling in the background using the Berry Branch stencil. The sentiment is from a new set you’ll be seeing tomorrow. 😊 Such a soft, yet summery card! You could definitely switch out the sentiment to create a summery birthday or anniversary card.
My next ensemble again uses the Print Shop: Peachy Keen set and the Create-a-Crate die. Having both background and focal point options in the Print Shop sets makes them so much fun to play around and create with!
[imagelinks id=”134″]
For this one I pulled out my Cozy Cup Coaster die to create the perfect place to put a couple of those pretty peaches. I again used the Create-a-Crate die to create the wood planks at the bottom. Those planks started off as white cardstock, which I sponged with Hickory Smoke and Frayed Burlap inks to give them the perfect rustic look. The matching peach crate was so fun to put together using the Create-a-Crate die. I embellished the front using a sentiment from the Just Peachy Sentiments stamp set, plus a couple of the tiny peaches from that set. The sentiment on the card was done with a combination of Just Peachy Sentiments stamps and dies.
[imagelinks id=”135″]
Of course the Print Shop: Peachy Keen set is so fun for creating backgrounds using the stencil + stamp combination. Just like Print Shop: Fresh Floral, they are pretty addicting! 😊
[imagelinks id=”137″]
Here I created the all-over peach panel and layered it over a Windowpane Plaid background, trimming it at an angle, and also splitting it to create an open space for that fun sentiment. The “peach” sentiment was cut from white cardstock and sponged with Oxide inks. I cut the “shadow” portion from vellum for a light, airy look.
The Peachy Keen peaches are just so fun to stamp, I couldn’t stop. I loved playing with different shades and colors. Here I stamped a whole cluster of them in various shades of pinks and corals. I love the slice from the set too – it’s so realistic looking!
[imagelinks id=”136″]
To create the background for this card, I cut several of the rails from the Create-a-Crate die, embossed them with the woodgrain embossing detail, and covered my whole card front with them. I just the “just peachy” sentiment from white cardstock three times, stacked them up, and layered them over the background.
One last card for you…this one again using the background builder stencils + stamps from Print Shop: Peachy Keen.
[imagelinks id=”139″]
I kept this one super simple. After I was done stenciling and stamping the panel, I diecut it with the largest Crimped Frame die. I kept the outer negative portion and adhered it to my card base, then nested the diecut back inside and popped it up with some foam adhesive. To finish it off I simply stamped a sentiment (from a set you’ll see more of tomorrow!). Super simple and fun to make…and I’m loving the purple and orange!
I had so much fun creating these projects! I hope you enjoyed them looking at them as much as I enjoyed creating them!

Oh goodness…. these are just too sweet!! Can’t wait for Friday am!!
Water can and budding summer must be my favourite… Love the fact they do combine with previous release . So definitely ready…
Gasp! The crate die! 💕 My favorite summer thing is not being so scheduled. No school. No sports/activities. Just being.
Oh my goodness, I love it ALL!
I am sure you will hear this a lot but they are all so peachy – I am not sure if I can pick just one. Sorry about that! 🙂 They all look so good – I am always going for the filler flowers and the crate looks like fun. Thank you Betsy!
I love extra time with family in the summer.
As for the release, so many lovely new products. I am partial to hydrangeas & leaves.
This release really speaks to me….I love vintage watering cans!! My favorite thing in the summer is home grown tomatoes! Can’t get enough.
Beautiful products Becky, and lots of inspiration for Day 1! Lovely peaches and watering can.
These peachy cards and the crate are making me so happy. I love the smell of fresh peaches. When I was little, we’d go to our grandmother’s house after church and have lunch and in the summer, once in a while, we’d make homemade peach ice cream. It was so good.
Amazing release. Love the watering cans.
The die cut is so crisp and detailed.
The peaches look like they’re just off
the tree. thanks for having the hop.

A wonderful Summery release especially the luscious peaches. My favorite thing about summer are the long days.
The crate is adorable! The peaches, the bright happy flowers, can’t possibly choose between them! Looks like another bundle buy! Beautiful work!
My favorite summer thing would be anything outdoors.

I’m always so impressed with your designs and how people use them. Your attention to detail is unmatched by anyone.
I love the Budding Beauties and the watering can. I just said yesterday that I didn’t think I was going to order this month, but that was a lie!
Eeeekkkk! 😊 Love all things about these! You all are so pretty about making a complete suite of products!
Oh these stamps and dies are so beautiful!
My favourite summer things are the long sunny days and all the berries and stone fruits available!
This is going to be a great new release. The flowers are gorgeous. Love that watering can probably the most but the peaches do scream summertime! Beautiful stuff indeed!
The watering can is my absolute favorite. I have a collection of antique ones. Now I can make cards using your replica! Love it!

My fave would be the peaches but the water can is a close second! This is a great release and an awesome way to incorporate the rest of my collection.
Another great start to a fun release!
I love the watering can and the Petite Eucalyptus, which would be great filling for bouquets. In the summer i enjoy watching the changes in my large perennial garden as different things bloom. Trying to enjoy the simple things during this COVID summer.
I have just had the best SC peaches this week. Your peach images are so realistic and I love the wooden crate!
I loved everything. I need to make a “fruit” themed card for my stamp club and you gave me so much inspo!!!! The water can is going to be so much fun to fill with flowers! Thank you!
I love the little crate. So many possibilities for little favors. Love!
I love all of it!!! Yikes, I am in trouble😂
Oh my goodness! It’s all amazing! The crate is genius! I love how you’ve used it as a background. The budding beauties are gorgeous. And those peaches look delicious!
The set for the peaches is so fantastic! They look so great with all the different layers and possibilities of a background and individual peaches. So glad that you made a layering stencil with them!
Peaches are the absolute best part of summer. They are my all time favorite fruit and I just love the peach stamps. That crate is absolutely adorable!
Well, I just love all these new products! I’m especially liking the flowers and watering can. Your cards are all so fresh, pretty and cheerful. If I had to pick my favorite thing about summer, it would be the slower pace.
I love a cookout in summer – with burgers and hotdogs on the grill! Your little peach crate is just adorable – a great way to give a little gift or at a place setting!
Peaches & watering cans definitely denote summer! Love it all!!
OMG! Being a Georgia girl, I love the peaches and the crate! I’ve set my alarm for Friday!
Unbelievable creativity! The problem is… I LOVE everything (as usual)!!!!
I adore your projects! This collection is so beautiful! Another home run for sure!! 🙂
Another release where I think I’m going to NEED it all! Lovely, lovely cards today Betsy and that little crate is just too CUTE!! :0)
So many pretty things in this release! Especially when my favorite summer thing is the garden! Thank you for all your beautiful creations and inspirations. And (i think) for even making me want new stamps even when i already have something similar from a long time ago by another company.
Oh what a beautiful release of Summertime goodies! My favorite thing in Summer is the different variety of flowers that come out in my garden. I LOVE every one of the new sets showcased today, and the Budding Beauties and Sprinkled With Kindness sets are definitely on my Must Have list!
