The Greetery: Bountiful Wreath and Harvest Home



Hi there! Welcome back for the second day of the countdown for the August release from The Greetery! I have more projects to share with you today featuring the new products from the Get Cozy Get Crafty Collection! So may beautiful fall images! I'm getting excited for the cooler temperatures!

Be sure to leave a comment on my blog and all of the Inspiration team's blogs for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate to The Greetery. There will be one given away each of the four countdown days!

All of the new items you will be seeing over the next three days will be available for sale on Friday, August 23 10:00am ET at The Greetery!




So my first card uses the Beautiful Bountiful Wreath stamp set and coordinating dies. This stamp set has five layers to it and it makes the most gorgeous wreath! I did this all with my stamping platform and it was easy to line up, and so much fun to watch it all come together! I made several of them in all different colors, to use on more cards.


For the background, I blended some light blue ink and splattered with a dark green. The sentiments I used are included in the set and even have dies! Love that!

Supplies used for this card:

Bountiful Wreath stamp set
Bountiful Wreath Dies
Sentiment Suite Dies

***




For my next card, I used the Harvest Home stamp set and coordinating dies. This is such a fun and unique stamp set! Although there are so many ways you can use the elements in this set, I loved creating the little farm scene on the big leaf. 



For my background on this one, I used watercolors and a large brush, and then brushed them up for the bottom corner. I then splattered it with some darker brown watercolor. 

Supplies used for this card:

Harvest Home stamp set
Harvest Home dies
Sentiment Suite Dies

The scene on the leaf is brilliant. What a clever idea and it's executes so beautifully. Your brushstrokes with the brush and watercolor is fabulous. Two amazing cards, Kay!

  90. Kay, when I saw these two sets, I knew I was hooked. They are the picture of Autumn and the warmth of the season. Learning to use our brushes and letting them do the work for us is another step in watercolor skills. Thank you for sharing this great idea with everyone. Both cards are so pretty, and filled with Autumnal inspiration!
