The Greetery Bunnies & Bows Release

Hello and welcome everyone! I'm super excited to be a guest designer for the The Greetery this month to help showcase the Bunnies & Bows release.  I have four cards to share but first I'd like to let you know about how you can win a $50 gift certificate. Leave a comment by Friday 3/21 6am EST to be eligible to win. The winners will announced on The Greetery blog on Friday, 3/21 at 9am EDT (an hour before the new products go live).

Now let's get to some project inspiration.... this first one showcases one of my favorite products from the release. 

There are two new Hey Honeycomb dies for this release, a chick and a bunny. You're getting a peek of the chick in action here. I have used the Hey Honeycomb Spring Stamp set to stamp a little greeting and instructions. The Pastel Mix of Honeycomb Balls are perfect for these new spring cuties. Additional products used for this card: Petal Pusher Blooms die & Frosted Frames die

My next card would be perfect to pair with a gift for a baby shower. The adorable little bunnies, wreath, and sentiment are from the new Bunny Tales stamp set. 

For this card I have also used the Diamond Ribbons die to create fun ribbon pattern background. I added some extra florals to the wreath. These were made with the Bitty Botanicals stamp & stencil combo. 

Up next is a spring card created with a mix of new and previously released Greetery products. 

The arched floral trellis and greeting on this card are from the new Spring Crest stamp set. You may recognize the Nordic Birds here. Even though these were released last year with a winter collection, I think they work just as well for anytime of year.

My last card is filled of all the Bitty Botanicals which are perfectly framed with the Diamond Ribbons Stencil.

After I had stenciled the Bitty Botanicals florals, I added a bit of extra detail with Copic Markers. The big "hello" stamp can be found in the Written In Ribbons set. 

That's all from me today. Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to leave a comment here and at all the other designer's blogs for a chance to win one of the gift certificates.

Sunny Studio Pet Party Birthday Card

Hello Everyone! I have another birthday card to share this week. It's a simple one featuring cute images included in the Party Pets stamp set from Sunny Studio.

All images plus the greeting and the background confetti are included in the Party Pets stamp set. I used Copic makers to color the balloons, dog, and present (colors used are listed at the end of this post).  I stamped the confetti onto a Rounded Rectangle Mat, then adhered my colored images and greeting with foam squares. 

I layered my completed Rounded Rectangle panel overtop an A2 kraft card stock panel. l used white pigment ink and the diagonal grid from the Background Basics 2 stamp set to add the pattern to this panel. And that's it! This card is ready to be sent to spread some birthday cheer. 

Copics used: pink- R00, R20, R21; blue- B21, B23, B26; brown- E41, E42, E71, E74; for shading on white areas- W1, YR30
