The Greetery: Nature Lover Collection Day 1

 

Hello and welcome to the first day of reveals for the brand new Nature Lover Collection from The Greetery! It's a new year and with that comes a stunning new release! This beautiful new collection of stamps and dies will be available at The Greetery on Wednesday, January 20 at 10:00 am EST!

Today we are showcasing: 

  • Love is stamp set (+ Boxwood Heart Base die)

  • Let’s have a word: love die

  • Boxwood Heart base die + details die

  • Wood Slice hearts

  • Love Song Sentiments

  • Mini Boxwood Heart Stamp + Cut combo



For my first card, I used the beautiful Love is stamp set along with the Boxwood Heart Base Die. I stamped the heart in two shades of green and added details with my Prismacolor colored pencils.  I added the flowers from the Fleur Impressions stamp set and Balloon Bouquet stamp set. 



The background was created by blending some Broken China distress ink onto white Bristol Board cardstock. I then stamped the sentiment from the Love Song Sentiments stamp set with black ink, and layered the wreath over it with foam tape. I added the flowers and tiny bow with foam tape as well. The bow is from the Speed Tagging Sentiments stamp set.

***


My next card uses the new Boxwood Heart Detail Dies along with the Boxwood Heart Base. The sentiment is from the Mini Boxwood Heart stamp set and the love is from the Let's Have A Word: Love die.  For the background, I blended some Broken China Distress ink onto Bristol Board cardstock. For the wreath, I first watercolored a piece of white watercolor paper with green inks and then splattered it with more of the same color. I let this dry and cut it out with the Boxwood Heart Details die. I layered all of the pieces onto the white base cut from the Boxwood Heart Base die and then added it to my card with foam tape.


I stamped the sentiment with black ink inside the wreath and then layered the white love above it across the wreath. 

***


So for my last card, I used the new Wood Slice Hearts dies. I cut the heart out of white cardstock and used Vintage Photo Distress ink to color it. I added speckles of more of the same color. For the background on my card, I used Worn Lipstick Distress inks and blended on white cardstock. I added the wood heart to my card base with foam tape.


The flowers are from Birthday Blooms stamp set and Blessed Blooms stamp set. I stamped them and cut them out with the coordinating dies and added them to the heart with foam tape. The tiny bow is from the Speed Tagging Sentiments stamp set and the two tiny little hearts are from the Signed and Sealed with a Kiss stamp set. 

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my projects today! I'll be back tomorrow with more wonderful projects with the new Nature's Lover Collection!
