I am so excited to share today’s new products with you! And just wait until you see all of the beautiful projects the Inspiration Team created with them! I think you’re in for a treat today.
All of the products being introduced on the blog this week will be available for purchase in The Shop, beginning at 10am EDT on Friday, August 23.
So let’s get to it. First, let’s meet today’s new products…
Bottled Up Stamps & Dies
We can’t keep these adorable stamps bottled up any longer! The sweet Bottled Up set allows you to stamp two different bottles. The stamps layer to create a realistic glass look in three easy steps. Fill these with your favorite blooms, such as those from the Budding Beauties Autumn set, and more! For a fun touch, you can even add your own message on a bottle by using the the rectangle label stamp and tiny coordinating sentiments!
Sentiments include: thank you, happy birthday, with love, so much, wishing you the best, from me to you, enjoy your day!
Approximate sizes:
smaller squarish bottle – 1.2″ x 2.5″
larger round bottle – 1.1″ x 2.8″
label frame – 1″ x .7″
sentiments appx .75″
Budding Beauties Autumn Stamps & Dies
The Budding Beauties Autumn set is made to coordinate perfectly with the Bottled Up stamp set. This set creates three different multi-step autumn sprigs which you can use to fill the bottles. Use them individually, or cluster a few different stems together to create a larger bouquet. There are also a handful of tiny sentiments to stamp on the label included in the Bottled Up set. Use these pretty stems without the bottles as focal points and more on your autumn projects!
Mix & match sentiments included:
thanksgiving, giving thanks, autumn blessings, for you, blessings
Approximate sizes:
bittersweet stem – 2″ x 3.5″
wheat – 1.1″ x 3.5″
red berry stem – 1.5″ x 3.3″
“giving thanks” sentiment – .8″ x .1″
Sentiment Suite: Thank You Stamps
Do you ever find yourself hunting for the perfect sentiment to finish your card? The Sentiment Suite stamps cover the most popular card making occasions, with sentiments in many different layouts. You’re sure to find the perfect fit for your project, whether it’s a one-line sentiment that spans the width of the card, a small sentiment for a tag, or even the perfect saying to stamp on the inside! The Sentiment Suite Thank You set has thank you stamps perfect for expressing thankfulness for so many different reasons. Pair these sentiments with the Sentiment Suite Basics dies for lots of layering options. You’ll be reaching for these great basics again and again!
Mason Jar Fillers Stencil Collection
The Mason Jar Fillers stencil set is perfect for pairing with the Just Mason Around stamps and dies. There is a total of four stencils in the set, which layer to create two different designs. The designs include a bouquet of lavender (or wheat), and a bundle of leafy twigs. Paired with the Just Mason Around jar set, they make pretty bouquets on their own, or can be used as backgrounds for layering your favorite floral stamps over the top! Each stencil measures 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″

Now for the fun part! Let’s get on to the projects using these new sets!
I had so much fun stamping these bottles in all the colors! It’s just so fun to watch that glass-like look come together as you layer the three steps for each bottle. I stamped so many of them that I have a whole pile to use on more projects. They’ll be fun to have on hand for quick cards! For this one, I used pink and orange bottles and filled them with some of the stems from the Budding Beauties Autumn set. I did a little watercoloring in the background, and also added the branch from Autumn Sketches around the base of the bottles. The large sentiment is from the Bountiful Wreath set, the small sentiments stamped on the bottle label are from the Budding Beauties Autumn set. There are several sentiments in the main Bottled Up set, but there are more seasonal specific sentiments included in the Budding Beauties Autumn set.
My next card again uses a couple of the bottles filled with the Budding Beauties Autumn. I also stamped a whole pile of those pretty berries and branches in all kinds of colors, so it was fun to mix and match and put together different colors and arrangements. The purple and green are outside of my normal color comfort zone, but I love how it turned out! The sentiment here is from the new Sentiment Suite: Thank You set. I tucked a little single leaf at the bas of the jar, which is from Autumn Sketches. Notice the fun little string accent around the neck of the bottle? That’s a fun little detail that’s included in the Bottled Up set.
Much like the Just Mason Around jar, the bottles can be watercolored instead of stamped with the three layers. For this bottle, I stamped just the third detail layer onto watercolor paper using a light gray ink just to act as a guide for doing some watercolor. I filled the bottle with the cotton branches from the Cotton Comforts set. I trimmed the stem off of the large branch and layered it over the neck of the bottle. I’m wishing now as I type this that I would have penciled in some stems! 🙂 The pretty background here was done with some stencils you’ll be seeing more of tomorrow! I used them along with some embossing paste to create the knit texture. It’s like a favorite sweater that just looks so soft and comfy! The sentiment is from the new Sentiment Suite: Thank You, stamped on a diecut from the Sentiment Suite: Basics set, which of course coordinates with this new stamp set, just like all of the others from this series.
My next few projects feature the new Mason Jar Fillers Stencil collection. Before we dive into those projects, I have a video for you that shows these stencils in action.
Like I mentioned in the video, these stencils make it really easy to build bouquets in the jars that are really nice and full and look like they take more time than they actually do! Here I started with the lavender-like stencil from the set and just added two of the berry stems from the Budding Beauties Autumn set. It doesn’t take much to add a lot of dimension and fullness when layering over the stenciling. The tiny tag tied to the jar was stamped with the new Sentiment Suite: Thank You set, stamped onto the circle tag from the matching die set.
My next card uses the twigs from the Mason Jar Fillers stencil collection. I just added a few leaves from the Autumn Sketches set to create this really pretty twiggy bouquet. I used the label from the new Bottled Up set on the front of the jar. It is a tad to small to completely cover the “fresh” word on the front of the jar, but I think it still totally works and looks really cute!
For my last card, I used the Mason Jar Fillers paired with the Budding Beauties Autumn set, this time omitting the jar. This makes for really quick cards too! The twine wrap is from the Oopsie Daisy set, and works perfectly to bundle up these autumn pretties. The tiny tag is again from the Sentiment Suite set. The texture was again done with a stencil we’ll be showcasing tomorrow, along with some texture paste. This would be a fun one to mass produce because it’s so quick, and you could play around with doing these in all sorts of colors. They could definitely work for other seasons too, just by changing the colors.
