Recollective Holiday Collection

Hi friends! Welcome back to day two of the new product introductions for the new Recollective Holiday Collection at The Greetery. Today we are showcasing some amazing new stencils, a few fun Holiday stamp sets and of course dies. I have lots to share today, so let's get started...

My first two cards use the new Christmas Sampler Stencil set. This is a set of six stencils that layer together to give you am amazing card panel. It reminds me of the holiday sampler cross stitching patterns that I love!! 

Once my panels were finished and added a few splatters with white paint for a little added detail. For my sentiments, I used the Christmas Sentiments stamp and die set. This set coordinates perfectly with the Christmas Sampler stencils. 

I love how the stencils were designed with the blank space to fit your sentiments in perfectly. You can stamp directly onto the panel to keep your card flat or use the dies as I did to add a little dimension. This would be a great card to mass produce and easy to mail too!

My next card uses the new Fair Isle stencil set.

This is a set of five stencils that layer together to make a beautiful winter background. I used the same colors as above but I can't wait to use it again with a different color palette.

Once my panel was finished I again used the Christmas Sampler Sentiments set for my sentiment. I mounted the sentiments onto a circle that I die cut with the Crimped Circles die and added a few holly   clusters that I created with the Plaid Tidings: Very Merry set. 

My next card uses the new Bright & Bubbly set. I am in love with these bubble lights, definitely remind me of the tree at my grandparent's house when I was growing up! So fun and I love the bit of nostalgia that they create.

I started my card by die cutting the pieces with the Bright & Bubbly dies. I then used my MISTI and did all of my stamping. Next, I ink blended my card panel with a blending brush and red ink and attached my lights onto the panel with foam adhesive. 

Lastly, I used the Bright & Bubbly stamp and Sentiments die set to create my sentiment. 

My final card for today uses the new Plaid Tidings: Very Merry stencil and stamp and die set. This is a set of products that can be combined but also work well on their own. I started my card by die cutting the So Very Merry sentiment from white cardstock. I then used the Plaid Tidings: Very Merry stencils to create the plaid pattern on the letters. Once I was finished I mounted the letters onto the So Very Merry shadow die cut.

I mounted my plaid sentiment onto my card panel and then I used the Plaid Tidings: Very Merry stamp set to stamp the companion sentiment directly onto my panel with black ink. Next, I used the fun new Popcorn Garland dies to create my popcorn accent border. I die cut the garland from white cardstock and lightly added a little yellow ink to the popcorn pieces. Then I used the red and green berries (circles) from the Mint & Berry Bits. The little bits fit perfectly onto the circle that are part of the garland. There is also a die that will die cut the circles if you prefer to keep your garland flat. Lastly, I attached the garland to my card panel to finish my card.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed all of my card. I had so much fun creating them and I know you are going to love all of the new products.
