Grassy Grove Set with Grove Dies


 This is another newly released product from the SU
January - June 2022 Mini catalog.  The Grassy Grove
Bundle on page 47 (Grassy Grove Cling set, with coordinating
Grove dies) is hands down my favorite product from
this Mini.    It is easy to cut out the large, tree frame and then
color it with Blending Brushes or my stamping on the 
various elements.  In this example, I used Blending Brushes.

The bundle has both a stamped deer with die, and this 
doe and fawn die combination.  It is easy to produce
complex looking cards, that go together easily.  It makes
the perfect card, for different occasions, including sympathy,
birthday, fall and even Christmas.

Way to Goat


 I have a friend whose birthday is coming up.  She is
Greek and they call old Greek women "goats".  I felt these
product were perfect for her card.   I colored the Way to Goat
(page 64) image with Stampin' Blends and then a swipe of
Wink of Stella.  I placed the retired Garden Gate over the
image and added vines.  I can't wait to hear what
she thinks of it!

Paradise Palms with Palms Dies


 I'm starting out the new year with some new product.
This is the Paradise Palms stamp set, with coordinating
Palms Dies.  Both are found on page 25 of the January -
June 2022 Mini catalog, that goes live tomorrow.  This
Mini catalog is accompanied by an SAB catalog.

This card is simple, quick and easy.  I stamped elements on
the card, cut out other components with the dies and
layered things up.  I really like the sentiments that come
with this set, too.

Celebrate Sunflowers


 I decided to post one more flower card, made with the
Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp set (page 17) and coordinating
Sunflowers Dies on page 166.  This card was such a simple
process, with a blended background behind the metallic 
die cut.  If you don't want to color a flower with ink,
using blending brushes is the way to go!

Daisy Lane and Daisy Punches


 Today I'm featuring a Daisy Lane (p 37) card.  I know it is kind 
of incongruous with the Holiday season, but I needed a break
from Christmas cards.  I used the coordinating Daisy Punch
and Medium Daisy Punch (p 150) to punch out the stamped
daisies.  The Celebrate Sunflowers (p 17) sentiment was 
layered on to a piece of Pattern Party Hostess DSP,
found on page 171.
