Bitty & Bigger Botanical Combo with Dana

by Betsy
written by Betsy

Hello Friends! It’s Dana here today and I am excited to be back on The Greetery Blog to share a card with you all. I love the new Bigger Botanical dies that were part of the latest release and I couldn’t wait to combine them with the original Bitty Botanicals set… so that was my inspiration for my card today.

I started my card by creating my card panel with the Bitty Botanical stamp and stencil set. I stamped the foliage with a moss green ink and added pink blooms with the coordinating stencil. I then used two of the Diamond Ribbons stencils to add the ribbon detail to the panel. I used aqua and light pink ink for my blending.

Next, I created my floral sprig with the Bigger Botanicals: Soapwort dies. I ink blended the floral stem and attached it to a frame I created with the Capsule Basic dies and Capsule Filigree Borders dies. I then used the Rosemal Reflections: Sentiment stamp set and Rosemal Reflections dies for my sentiment (if you have the Tangled Tulips die, the same banner is included in that set as well). Lastly, I attached my Capsule frame to my card panel and added a white frame around the panel that I die cut with the Frosted Frame die to finish my card. 

Thanks for joining me today and I hope I inspired you to use the Bigger Botanical dies and Bitty Botanicals stamp and stencil set to create a card of your own.

Enjoy your day,

Dana

Bunny Tales Baby Card with Dana

by Betsy
written by Betsy

Hello Friends! It’s Dana here today and I am back with a baby card that uses the Bunny Tales set along with some of the Capsule products. We have lots of friends becoming grandparents, so I have depleted my baby card stash, but this same card will be perfect for Easter or spring too! 

I started my card by using the Capsule Basic dies to create my scalloped and basic oval shape. I die cut the center oval from white cardstock and then ink blended it with a light green and soft aqua ink. I then attached the two ovals together and set them aside.

Next, I used the Capsule Fixed Border Small die to die cut the small oval frame. I stamped my floral images with the Capsule Collection Floral Borders stamp set onto the frame and then layered this onto my ink blended oval with foam adhesive. I love how all of these products coordinate and can be layered together to give you so many options.

I then used the Bunny Tales stamp and die set to stamp my bunnies, wreath and sentiment. Next, I added a few small floral die cuts (Bontanicuts Wildflower Mix die) to the floral frame and I die cut a bow (Regency Bow No 1 die) to add to the top of my oval frame. Lastly, I attached everything to a soft yellow checkered card panel to finish my card.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope I inspired you to create a baby card of your own.

Enjoy your day,

Dana

Tags & Treats with Dana

by Betsy
written by Betsy

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today and I am excited to be back to share some more holiday tags and a treat box with you all. My release projects used more jewel tones and traditional colors so I thought I would pull out some bright and “trendy” colors for today’s projects. Let’s get started…

For my first project, I created a treat box. I die cut all of the pieces with the Market Place No. 3 dies to create my holiday shop and attached it to an arch box to create a fun box to hold treats or a small gift.

Products Used:
Stamp Set: Market Place Holiday Sentiments
Dies: Market Place No. 3, Market Place Holiday Festoons, Large Arch Box

Next, I created three gift tags that use the Market Place Mini dies. 

Products Used:
Dies: Market Place Mini,  Market Placed Holiday Festoons

I then created a couple of tags that use the Bigger Holiday Botanical dies along with the Capsule products. I love how the last two releases can be mixed and matched to give you so many fun options. 

Products Used:
Stamp Set: Rosemal Reflections Sentiments
Dies: Bigger Holiday Botanicals: Holly No. 1, Bigger Holiday Botanicals: Holly No. 2, Regency Bow No. 2, Hang It Up, Capsule Basic, Capsule Filigree Borders, Rosemal Reflections

Lastly, I created a set of tags that use the Little Linked Labels stamp and die set. These tags are so quick and easy to create and I love that you can create multiple tags at once. 

Products Used:
Stamp Set: Little Linked Labels
Die: Little Linked Labels

Thanks for joining me today and I hope I inspired you to create some holiday tags of your own.

Enjoy your day,

Dana

Rosemal Reflections Suite with Dana

by Betsy
written by Betsy

Hello Friends! It’s Dana here today and I am excited to be back sharing some projects that use the Rosemal Product Suite. I just can’t seem to put these products away… I love the beautiful florals in this collection and how all of the products can be mixed and matched to give you so many possibilities! 

I started my first card by using the Rosemal Reflections stamp set to stamp my floral frame. I then used the Capsule Basics die set to die cut all of my oval and scalloped frames. I love how all of these products can be layered and combined to give you so many different possibilities. Next, I used the Rosemal Reflections Details die to die cut two of the floral clusters. I attached the florals in the opening of my floral frame and then used the Rosemal Reflections Sentiments set for my sentiment. 

Next, I  created a companion A2 card with the Rosemal Reflections stamp set. I embossed my card panel with the Rosemal Reflections embossing folder and then added my scalloped frame and stamped images to finish my card. 

Lastly, using the same products as above I created a coordinating gift tag.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my projects.  I hope I inspired you to create some holiday projects of your own with the Rosemal Reflections product suite. I would love for you to tag me on Instagram so I can see what you create!!

Enjoy your day,

Dana

Merciful Mums with Dana

by Betsy
written by Betsy

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today and I’m back with a couple of cards that use the beautiful Mum’s the Word set. This set is a fall favorite of mine and I couldn’t wait to use it again. I love the gorgeous mum floral frame you can create with the two stencils and coordinating stamp set that add beautiful details to the greenery and florals.

I created two cards to share with you today, though they are both similar and use all of the same supplies. I started my cards by using the Mum’s the Word stencils to create my floral frame around the edges of my card panel. I then used the Mum’s the Word stamp set and a shade darker of ink to add the details to both the florals and foliage.

Next, I used the medium Crimped Circle die to die cut a circle from the center of my card panel. I inlaid the circle back into the panel and attached my panel to an A2 card base.

Lastly, I used the Strength for Today stamp and die set for my sentiments. This set includes beautiful sentiments for sympathy or to let someone know you are thinking about them.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my cards. I love how the Mum’s the Word set is perfect for fall and can be used for so many different occasions. I hope I inspired you to create a few cards of your own.

Enjoy your day,

Dana

Warm & Cozy Thanks with Dana

by Betsy
written by Betsy

Hi crafty friends! It’s Dana here today and I am stopping by with a thank you card to share with you all. I didn’t have a chance to use the Warm & Cozy dies that were released last Christmas so I thought I would use them today to create a card that can be used throughout the year.

I started my card by creating my card panel with the Herringbone Parquet die. I ink blended a piece of the panel with Kraft ink and attached the two pieces together to create the wall and floor of my scene. I then used the Frosted Frames die to create the frame to go around the edges of the panel. I love the way the frame finishes off the panel to give it a fun, clean design. 

Next, I used the Warm & Cozy dies to create my chair and accessories. I used a combination of solid and patterned paper for my die cutting. I love the mix of patterns and I think it adds a little extra fun detail. Lastly, I used the Thankful Heart set and matching die for my basket and sentiment. 

Thanks for joining me today! I hope you enjoyed my card and I will be back soon to share another project with you all.

Enjoy your day,

Dana

Pretty Planter Pets with Dana

by Betsy
written by Betsy

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today and I am stopping by to share a card with you all. I had so much fun pulling out some of my “older” favorite sets and creating a card just because… 

I started my card by using the stencils from the Print Shop: Calico set to create my card panel. I used pastel ink colors for all of my blending to create a soft background. I then trimmed my panel down and attached it to an A2 card base.

Next, I used the Planter Pets Stamp and Cut Combo set to create my kitty planter. I also added an aloe plant that I created with the Plant It: Aloe dies. I then attached the planter to a scalloped rectangle that I die cut with the A2 Stitched Scallops die. Lastly, I used Way to Grow stamp set for my sentiment. 

Thanks for joining me today and I hoped I inspired you to pull a few “older” sets and create a card of your own.

Enjoy your day,

Dana

Hi crafty friends! I hope you all are doing well and having a great day! It’s Dana here today and I am stopping by with a card that uses the gorgeous Best Bouquet Details dies along with the World’s Greatest set. I just love all of the possibilities you can create with these sets and they are perfect for so many occasions. 

I started my card by using the Best Bouquet Details die to die cut all of my florals and foliage from white cardstock. I then used finger daubers and added ink to all the individual pieces before assembling my bouquet. Next, I used the World’s Greatest die and matching stamp to create my trophy. 

I used the Frosted Frames and Pierced Plaid dies to create my card panel. I ink blended the Pierced Plaid panel with a soft pink ink and then added the Frosted Frame to create a scalloped edge. I then attached my trophy and bouquet with foam adhesive. Lastly, I added a few florals at the bottom of the trophy for a little added detail. 

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my card.

Enjoy your day,

Big Yay Birthday with Dana

by Betsy
written by Betsy

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today and I am excited to be back to share a birthday card with you all. I love the Big Yay set from the latest release and couldn’t wait to use it again to make a more “boyish” card. I am always in need of birthday cards for boys and this set is perfect!

I started my card by using the Big Yay Elements die and Big Yay stencil to create my focal image. I used orange, blue and red ink for my blending. I then use the Big Yay Word dies to die cut my Yay and the shadow (backer). There is also a stencil that can be used for this step though I chose to use the dies for a little added dimension. Next, I used the Big Yay Elements die again to die cut a blue Yay and off set it behind my stencil piece to create a shadow.

To create my card panel, I used the Delightful Digits die. I attached the Delightful Digits panel to a blue ink blended background and then added my Yay with foam adhesive. Next, I used the Big Yay stamp set and Elements dies to stamp “it’s your birthday!” I love how this set includes lots of companion sentiments that can be used for lots of different occasions. Lastly, I used the Big Yay Elements dies to die cut a few stars to add to my background.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope I inspired you to create a fun birthday card of your own!

Enjoy your day,

Dana

Blue & Yellow Botanical Birthday with Dana + Save the Date!

by Betsy
written by Betsy

Hello and happy Friday! Dana is joining us today with some beautiful birthday inspiration. The team has definitely been loving the Bitty Botanicals set, lol! We’re hoping to have the stamp and stencil back in stock soon, as well as the dies from our March release.

Before we get to Dana’s project, a little heads up about some goings-on here next week! Did you know? We’re turning 6! Of course we need new goodies to celebrate, and that means a new collection is coming to the shop next week Friday, April 25. The collection is called Jubilee, and we’ll be sharing sneak peeks next week before we reveal the collection on Thursday, and the new products hit the shop on Friday. I hope you’ll join us for the fun!

Now let’s hear from Dana, all about the project she’s sharing with us today!

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today and I am excited to be back to share another card with you all.  I am in love with the Bitty Botanicals set and couldn’t wait to use it again, so I decided to create a springtime birthday card to share with you today.

I started my card by creating my card panel with the Bitty Botanicals stamp and stencil set. I just love how easy it is to create a card panel with this stamp and stencil. Next, I used the Diamond Ribbons die to create my ribbon frame. I ink blended the ribbon with blue ink and then added white dots to the corners of each square. 

Next, I used the Crimped Circle die to die cut a vellum circle. I attached the vellum circle to a blue circle frame that I created with some basic circle dies. I then used the All Kind of Happy die, Shadow die, and stamp set for my sentiment. Lastly, I used the BontanicCuts Wildflower Mix dies to create a few floral stems. I attached my sentiment and florals to my vellum circle and then added a small bow from the Diamonds Ribbons die as a final detail.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope I inspired you to create a springtime birthday card of your own! 

Enjoy your day,

Dana
