The Greetery-Brimming Baskets,Berry Bouquet Builder, Capsule Quilt Shop, Teeny Tags

My first card features the new Brimming Baskets die & embossing folder. On the background I used the Sweetest Frames Capsule Edition dies along with the Capsule Quilt Shop embossing folder & dies. I added a bow using the Regency Bow No 2 dies and added a little sentiment tag using the new Teeny Tags stamp set & die.

This next card is pretty much the same I just changed up the colors and sentiment. For this one I used Briar Rose & Wildberry for the background and for the Eucalyptus & Evergreen for the greenery. For this one I used the Rosemal Reflections Sentiments stamp set & die.

Hi there! Today I’m joining The Greetery to introduce the new Noel Needleworks Suite.

For my first project I used the Capsule Quilt Shop die set to cut the large quilt star. Then I used the Capsule Quilt Shop stencil set to blend the color. I put the die cut into the Capsule Quilt Shop embossing folder to add the texture. The next three layer were all cut using the Capsule Basics dies & then embossed using the Capsule Quilt Shop embossing folder. For the sentiment I used the Capsule Quilt Shop Elements.

This next project features the new Quilt Block Builder stamp set. First I created the shape card using the Shortbread Shapes Rectangles die set. Then I stamped the fun quilt patterns. For the sentiment I used the Laid Back Basics set.

Oooh Baby Baby

October 5, 2026

Hi there! Sharing a couple of baby cards that I made recently.
It always amazes me how I can have 100 cards sitting here and never have the right one for the right occasion when I need it.
Kinda like when I go into my closet and have nothing to wear in a closet full of clothes.
Why am I like this? Please tell me I’m not alone.

This first one was a Pinterest inspired find which led to Etsy. I saw this one below and loved the clean, graphic look.
I also happen to be a child of the 80’s and loved Salt-N-Pepa’s Push It. If you know, you know.

I had these A Train Alpha Die Set near by and thought it was a good fit. These were included in a past Hero Arts kit, but you could easily use any alpha dies for this. I added a couple of clear dots for funsies.

This next baby card is less graphic, more storybook. I also love how both of these cards are not pink or blue.

This was a Betsy inspired card. Does anyone else stare at her cards and think, “how can I channel this kind of excellence?” Every single thing she makes is pure gold. I just loved the use of acetate. Is is the card or the photography or is it both? Either way I love every detail.

It is hard to make a totally clear card if you want to write a message so I popped this onto a capsule basic base with capsule filigree & diamond ribbon details with avocado and artichoke. The sentiment is from Folk Heart.

Yesterday I walked up and down the Target card isles taking photos of cards to remember my inspiration.
Does anyone else do this? Wanna see what I snapped to remember?

This one above kinda reminds me of my first card with the alpha dies. I think I just love the colorful letters and clean vibe of it. Also, the sentiment is fantastic. This could be done with alpha stamps or dies.

The one above is absolutely gorgeous and totally reminded me of Betsy. Love the woodland creatures and storybook look. I’m not even sure how to recreate this but I just like looking at it.

Lastly, how adorbs. I feel like, if you were brave enough, you could almost paint this? Are we brave enough? This is a great stamp set idea though.

Anyways, thanks for coming along on my baby card journey. Maybe we should do this again on another occasion topic?
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Autumn Edit Introductions Day 1

September 7, 2026

Hi there! Today I’m joining The Greetery to introduce the new Autumn Edit Collection.

First up is the Bigger Autumn Botanicals dies. I used three on this card: Gooseneck Gourd, Pear Squash & Acorns. For the background I used the new Shortbread Shapes Rectangle Autumn Embossing Folder along with the coordinating Shortbread Shapes: Rectangles die. For the sentiment I used the Rosemal Reflections Sentiments stamp & die.

This next card features the new Bitty Autumn Botanicals Stamp & Stencil Set.

After stamping & stencilling the bitty botanicals I added the Diamond Foliage die with Stardust cardstock. I also created a shape card using the Capsule Basics dies along with the Rosemal Reflections Embossing Folder for the texture on the Plumberry frame. For the sentiment I used the Scripted Sentiments stamp & die set.

This last card showcases the Shortbread Shapes Rectangle Autumn Embossing Folder. I die cut each square using the Shortbread Shapes: Rectangles die with solid colored cardstock. Then I put each square into the embossing folder. Lastly I blended ink onto each embossed square to bring out the embossed design.

For the sentiment I used the new Simple Autumn Sentiment set along with the Shortbread Shapes Rectangle die.

July 9, 2026

Hi there! Today I’m joining The Greetery for Day 2 introductions to the La Dolce Vita Collection.

My first card features the BotaniCuts Tomatoes die set. For the background I used the Checks Out A2 Border die. For the sentiment I used the Rolling Hills Bella Terra Addition stamp & die set.

For the checkered background I used Bluebell & Capri cardstock. For the tomatoes I used Grapefruit cardstock and blended Poppy, Cranberry & Buttercup ink to give the tomatoes more variation. For the leaves I used Lemongrass cardstock and blended Juniper ink for added color.

This next card uses the Vine Ripened Stamp Set along with the Tomato Tomato Stamp Set for the sentiment.

Here I stamped the tomatoes with Pimento ink and using blender brushes I blended Cranberry, Poppy and Buttercup ink onto parts of the stamps to stamp more varied colors onto the tomatoes. For the leaves I used Eucalyptus and Juniper ink.

For this card I used the Rolling Hills Embossing Folder and trimmed the top half of the card off, leaving only the rolling hills on the bottom. I added the house using the Countryside Villa Mini Die. I used Copic markers to add some shadows to the house and trees. I used the Rolling Hills Bella Terra Addition Stamp Set for the flowers and for the sentiment I used the Simple Everyday Sentiments Stamp Set.

Here I created a house shape card using the Countryside Villa Jumbo Die along with the Rolling Hills Bella Terra Addition stamp set for the sentiment.

Graduation Cards

May 21, 2026

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of graduation cards that I made last weekend. My daughter always requests custom cards with the names on them so this is what I came up with.

The Greetery-Capsule Star Studded, Altenew-Caps Bold Alpha Die Set

I had the recent Greetery products nearby so they were first to grab. On the background I used the Capsule Star Studded Borders dies, Capsule Basics dies & Capsule Party Scene dies. To customize the names I used the Caps Bold Alphabet dies and for the congrats I used the Let’s Have a Word: Congrats die.

On the inside of the card I used the World’s Greatest die for the trophy pocket. I added the “for you” sentiment from the Big Yay set.

Of Course a shaker is always a fun touch so I filled it with the Starshine Embellishment Mix.

Here was my daughter’s reaction: “Okay Mom, you went above and beyond on these and I love it!”
I’ll take that as a win!!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

May 12, 2026

Hi there! Today I’m joining The Greetery to kick off the Fête & Fiesta Collection introductions.

These new products go live at 10am EDT on Thursday, May 14.

Picado was a new term for me. It actually means “chopped” but this type of “perforated paper” design is a traditional Mexican folk art featuring intricate designs cut into tissue paper.

I am in love!

For my first card I used a combination of the Pretty Picado Die with the Capsule Star Studded Borders and the Pretty Picado Sentiments stamp set & coordinating dies for the sentiment.

Here’s a video showing how I created these cards.

My second card featured the Pretty Picado Stencil mixed with the Capsule Star Studded Borders & Capsule Basics Dies. For the sentiment I used one of the Pretty Picado Cut-Away Sentiments Dies along with the Pretty Picado Sentiments stamp set.

My next card is a fun shape card showcasing the new Market Place Celebration Street dies.

The Greetery-Market Place Celebration Street

Here I used it with the Market Place No 3 Die Set. The window boxes, balloons, banners and even adorable bicycle give a fresh new feel to these existing Market Place products.

Next up is the new Arch Box Mini Die. This is such a cute, mini version of the other Arch Boxes and works well with many other products.

The Greetery-Arch Box Mini, Pretty Picado Blooms

Here I added blooms from the Pretty Picado Blooms Die Set along with windows from the Market Place Mini Die Set. I added the window boxes from the new Market Place Celebration Street Die Set and sentiments from the Pretty Picado Sentiments stamp & die sets.

Here’s a video showing how I created these boxes.

For the bloom I used the new Bigger Botanical: Hawthorn die set with a sentiment from Tangled Tulips.

The Greetery-Golden Egg, Bigger Botanicals

My next card is another egg shaped card but this time I used the adorable Silly Goose suite products. How cute is this goose with rainboots? I embossed the sentiment from Silly Goose in white onto vellum.

This last card features the Golden Egg stencil set for the inked floral border. I used the Chocolate Bunny dies for the cute focal with another sentiment from Tangled Tulips. I added the bow from the Regency Bow No. 2 die set.
