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!

Such a fun release. Usually my favorite summer thing is travel. We always try to go to new place each summer.
Love the new peony & hydrangea stamps with the watering can! So summer & springtime here in Arkansas!
What a gorgeous release! It makes my heart happy! My favorite summer things are peach iced tea and the beach!
A long time ago when I was in high school I worked in a fruit and vegetable store in the summer and it was such a neat time to be selling fresh summer fruits like peaches, pears and melons. Seeing this display of peaches brings me back to those wonderful summers enjoying those delicious and healthy fruits — thanks for keeping those wonderful memories alive in this summer release, Betsy!!
This sets are wonderful! A favorite summer thing is getting to see family, which looks different this year, and getting into the mountains to hike and see wildflowers.
Love the little crate treat box and those peaches actually made my mouth water. 🙂 Actually I love everything you showed us today. Looking forward to what else you have for us this month.
I ADORE the Peachy Keen stencil and stamp set as peaches are my favorite summertime fruit (well maybe a tie with watermelon).
My favourite summer thing is enjoying all of the fresh local fruit available so these peaches are just perfect! Can’t wait to see the rest of the release 🙂
Summer Fruit and especially peaches are one of the best things about summer. These are beautiful samples!
My favorite summer thing is the yummy fruit like peaches!
I’m so obsessed….spent nearly 700.00 on stamping supplies last month…..at least half from Stampin up and you create this! ? I’m in trouble now, I need the gift card!
That crate is so different and so cute and so useful. You’re getting like Tim Holtz in knowing what we need and want before we do. LOL
I love this collection! The Petite Eucalyptus and Budding Beauties are at the top of my must have list!
My favorite summer thing is watching hummingbirds. We have the feeders attached directly to our windows, so we get close-up views. We always look forward to their arrival!
I just love all your products! I really loved the cards made with the watering can and the floral arrangements coming out of them! And oh, the crate!! ❤️
Love all the summery things in the release. I love the Budding Beauties Summer as I can see the elements looking great with my Bottled Up set! The peaches look so real I can almost taste them.
CUUUUUUTE new release! I want it all! I am off to hop!
OMG!! The watering can is fabulous & so are the flowers from the Budding Beauty Summer set. It is an awesome release, just like the last one.
LOVE EVERYTHING Betsy!!! Fabulous designing and all your cards are BEAUTIFUL!!!! Really like print shops! Great idea and new summer budding beauties are stunning, especially in the watering can! So many favorite summer time favorite things… hard to decide a favorite… love picnics with picnic baskets, blankets and kites; homemade ice cream, need I say more; fairs & carnivals; beaches & shells; family barbecues & croquet.
Thank you Betsy, for your unique creativity and your heart for sharing your love and talent.
Oh, Betsy! Amazing, amazing, amazing! I love every single crafty goodie revealed today! I don’t know how you do it, but please keep doing it!
My favorite thing is summer is the longer days. And lemonade. Today’s cards and new products are just beautiful. The peaches remind me of my southern friends and all the people currently stationed in Georga. And the flowers are amazing! I am not a “gotta have it” girl when it comes to flowers, but these are so delightful.
As always, everything is beautiful. Oh, but the watering can is my fav.
I LOVE everything but the PEACHY KEEN is my favorite! Beautiful colors and creations by the DTs! Gorgeous for summer!
Forgot to say my fav SUMMER thing…. FRESH FRUIT!
Awesome once again…I love that little shiplap detail with the crate embossing die!
I’m blown away once again by all the beautiful products. The watering can is my favorite!
The Sprinkled with Kindness watering can set, as well as Budding Beauties Summer (esp. the daisies) and Petite Eucalyptus are all on my wish list.
Where have I been? I am new to your stamp company and am loving Greetery stamp sets and dies. These cards are all amazing and I love how the sets complement one another. So much inspiration. My favorite summer thing is working in the flower garden and enjoying all of the fresh summer produce.
Betsy, for your green watering can card, what colors did you use on the flowers? The colors look very nice…..
Hi Myrna – I used Distress Oxides to stamp those images. The watering can was done with Cracked Pistachio. The peony was Abandoned Coral and Festive Berries, the hydrangea was Picked Raspberry (for both steps – sponged the first step to get the lighter pink). The daisy cluster is also Picked Raspberry. The greenery…that’s a little tougher question. 😊 I used a big mix of Oxide greens…
these projects are wonderful! absolutely gorgeous! may I ask, what colour did you use for the eucalyptus sprigs in your grey watering can card with the pink background? love that sprig.
