Hi! This is Anja. Today I have another Christmas card for you. I decided to make a more monochromatic card, using the new Christmas Fawns die. For this project I used: - Cottage Cutz dies (Christmas Fawns, Pierced Circle Set), - Distress Oxides (Black Soot) and Inks (Brushed Corduoy, Vintage Photo, Walnut Stain, Fired Brick), - white card stock for die cuts, - watercolor paper for background (12x12 cm), - patterned paper (14,3x14,3 cm), - water spritzer - heat gun, - brush, - Gansai Tambi watercolors (number 906). - paper glue, - adhesive foam pads. First I cut and colored the fawns. Then I started on the background. First I colored the paper with black ink. Then spritzed it with water and dried it. Then I sprinkled it with pearl white color. Then I cut the background paper and made a circle out of it. I used the biggest circle from the set. I used adhesive foam pads to adhere first the fawns and then the patterned paper. I used one layer of pads for the fawns and two layers for the paper. And this is my finished card. Don't forget to check the new release in the store. Can't wait to get my dies. Have a great Sunday and see you again next week. Anja Z. The Cottage Cutz dies I used:

Good morning, Friends! Welcome to Day 1 of the April release introductions from The Greetery (new products, unless otherwise noted, will be available on March 27th at 10am ET)! Today the team is showcasing some super fun and whimsical products that are perfect for welcoming Spring and warmer temperatures. Let's jump right in! First up, I have a birthday card made with the Top Down Day stamp set. This charming set features a sporty convertible and a wonderful selection of greetings that cover everything from birthday to hello and beyond! I began by creating a little scene for my car. I used the Pathway stencil to create a little cobblestone road and added clouds by creating a stencil using the new Silver Lining die (this die will be a little delayed, but should be available in early April). I stamped and die cut my convertible and added the driver and balloons to give my card some birthday style. Then, I stamped my sentiment and matted my scene with a Postal Frames die cut. Next, I used the new Painterly Stripes background to create the plaid pattern on a white card base. I wanted to soften the pattern a touch and add some color to the card base, so I lightly blended ink over top of the pattern in the same color. Then, I just mounted my scene to the center of the card base. Cute! My second card has a little bit of an interactive element involved. It was super easy to create a slider using the bumper of the Happy Hippie Van die to make a channel. I began by die cutting the clouds (again, the Silver Lining die will be delayed until April, but it's totally worth the wait) and cutting the slider channel in the top layer. I sponged a sunny glow on the back cloud layer to look like the sun peeking from between the clouds before assembling the scene. Then, I applied a thin line of glitter to the edge of the clouds to give them a sparkly "silver lining" look. I adhered all of the layers to an aqua card base that I had stamped with the same Painterly Stripes background. I love that you can get different looks with this background just by rotating it or stamping only once! This time, I created a sunny yellow convertible filled with flowers. Betsy's handy stamping guide makes it a snap to put together the bouquet! I also stamped and die cut the sentiment and attached it in the center of the sunny glow to reinforce the theme. Isn't it just adorable?! Thank you so much for joining me today! Unfortunately, this is my last post for a bit so I'll miss seeing you for the rest of this release. Hopefully, I can pop back in with some inspiration before baby arrives, but I'm afraid things are a bit uncertain right now. What is for certain though is that these wonderful ladies are sure to give you plenty of beautiful projects to enjoy, so make sure to visit with them today and over the next few days: Kay Miller Laurie Willison Dawn McVey Heather Nichols Keeway Tsao Angelica Conrad Kelly Lunceford Norine Borys Wanda Guess I hope you find something you love coming from The Greetery this month!

This week, I'm using the soon-to-be-released Baby Onesie Die-namics and Stamp Set from My Favorite Things. I had so much fun stamping with this set a couple days ago and I just couldn't put it down, so I'm doubling up. I cut out the onesie with the Baby Onesie Die-namics in So Happy Together 6x6 papers from Echo Park. I stamped the sentiment in Brilliance Graphite Black ink and the popped it up over a Circle STAX set 2 Die-namics, which I embossed with my Polka Dots folder from Quickutz. The flowers are also new for July, they are the Plentiful Petals Die-namics, which I cut out in Pink Lemonade and Cotton Candy cardstock.
