Golden Greenery Mini Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team Blog Hop!

Ready for another Artisan Blog Hop?!  Yesterday we hopped with most of the team with our BISTRO BURGER hop.  Today ... a few of us are hopping with projects we made using the ☆ NEW  Online Exclusive Bundle called Golden Greenery.  This is part of the Online Exclusive Season of Green & Gold Suite ... which is a STUNNING suite!  The suite includes this gorgeous Golden Greenery Bundle plus the fun Greetings of the Season Bundle ... with fun seasonal greetings & labels.  But ... add on the Everyday Greetings Stamp Set and these products are gorgeous to use all year long.  Which is what we are using on our hop today!  

So let's get going with the fabulous projects we have to share with you today! 

Have to pause and mention that I am a bit obsessed with this color combo.  Haha.  Pool Party, Peach Pie, and Lemon Lolly.  Well ... and Basic White.  I love how these subtle, but so cheery, colors all look together.  It makes me happy just to look at them.  Here are some more photos so you can see them better.

First up ... the Pool Party card!

Colors Pool Party, Peach Pie, Lemon Lolly, Basic White
Inks: Pool Party, Peach Pie, Lemon Lolly, Versamark
Cardstock/Papers: Pool Party, Peach Pie, Lemon Lolly, Basic White, Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper
Stamps: Golden Greenery, Everyday Greetings
Tools:  Golden Greenery Dies, Greetings of the Season Dies, Water Painter, Heat Tool
Accessories: Basics Embossing Powders, Baker's Twine Essentials Pack, Iridescent Faceted Gems

I used one of the label/tag dies from the Greetings of the Season Dies to make a frame for the card front.  I die cut it from the center of the card front, stamped it with one of the stamps from the Golden Greenery Stamp Set, splattered with ink, & then sponged the edges with a Sponge Dauber to make it all pop.  

Then I watercolored a piece of Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper in Lemon Lolly & Peach Pie & adhered the Golden Greenery Die-cut over it, so it would be "peeking out" when the frame was added.  Then adhered the card front using dimensionals, and add the greetings ... 



I love how this card turned out and want to make more with different color combinations, etc.  

Now here are some photos of the second card: 

Colors Coastal Cabana, Peach Pie, Lemon Lolly, Basic White
Inks: Peach Pie, Daffodil Delight, Versamark
Cardstock/Papers: Coastal Cabana, Lemon Lolly, Basic White, 2024-2026 In Color 6"x6" Designer Series Paper
Stamps: Golden Greenery, Everyday Greetings
Tools:  Golden Greenery Dies, Greetings of the Season Dies, Water Painter, Heat Tool, Cute Crochet Embossing Folder
Accessories: Basics Embossing Powders, Linen Thread, Peach Pie 3/8" Bordered Ribbon, Iridescent Faceted Gems

A few things to point out with this card: 

🍃  Stamp & splatter the Peach Pie Designer Series Paper.  Then distress the edges.  This gives some fun textures before you add the focal piece.  

🍃  Stamp the Lemon Lolly cardstock with Daffodil Delight ink using the two different "Congratulations" fonts at a diagonal.  Cut out using one of the tag pieces from the Greetings of the Seasons Dies. 



All in all ... I really love how this card came together also.  I love the pop of the white greenery die-cut, the subtle but vibrant color combo, the mix of fonts with the greetings, and how the fun textures & details all create a fun layered look.  

And now ... guess what?!   Time to keeping hoping and check out the projects my fellow Artisan Design Team members made!  You won't want to miss them!
