What’s your favorite season, and why is it spring?

Spring Cards

The sentiment stamp “Full of Promise” from our Growing Garden Stamp Set captures what I love so much about Springtime. This is the season when the green returns and the world around us reawakens. This is the season of planting what will soon bloom. I love the promises of light and joy that springtime brings each year.

Julie created a cute garden scene by stamping and die cutting the elements from the Growing Garden Stamp Set. Doesn’t it just make you want to grow something lovely?

14 Stamped Lotus Flower Cards and Project Ideas

Did you know lotus flowers come in many different colors and are often multi-hued? I used to think of them as having very light-colored centers with delicate-pink flower tips. But when we started thinking about adding a lotus to our Greenhouse Society Collection of flower stamps and dies, we did some research. Now I know you can use nearly any color to create life-like stamped lotus flower projects. Here are 14 stamped lotus cards showing some amazing ways to use this month's Lotus stamps and matching dies!

Plus don't miss Julie's video tutorial featuring the Lotus Stamps and the Bubbles on the Border Dies!

Handmade Sloth Gift Tag

Hello, all! Julie here with a tutorial from Allison Arbour. She's showing us how she made this adorable handmade gift tag using alcohol markers. Allison used both the Sloane and Slater the Sloths stamps and dies and the Hello Hollyhocks stamps and dies on her project.  I would never have imagined using this stamp sets together but it works really well for such a unique combination. I hope you enjoy seeing Allison's stamped sloth gift tag and her tutorial!

Colored Pencil and Embossing on Dark Cardstock - Tutorial

These techniques would also be great with any of the flower and nature stamps from the Greenhouse Society Collection.

August Sneak Peeks Day #3

Like I said yesterday, it's been getting hot around here, which means I would love to get to go swimming this week. The Greenhouse Society stamp set and die this month are helping keep a cool frame of mind though, since it's the Lotus, a water flower.

We have been having a wonderful time around here at TTHQ, playing with the Lotus. It includes the flower stamp, which has a large flower, a couple of buds and one large round leaf, along with some sweet phrases for many occasions. These will make lovely cards, and are great for coloring with all kinds of different media.

If you're a member of the Greenhouse Society auto-ship program, these beautiful stamps and dies will be arriving in mid-August. 

If you aren't a member yet, you can pre-order the Lotus starting tomorrow morning. However, if you're someone who likes saving money (25% on the monthly product), getting access to exclusive, members-only sales, and free shipping on add-on orders, you should totally check out the details on the Greenhouse Society auto-ship program.

Check in again tomorrow morning for the full release! We're pretty excited about these new stamps and dies, and can't wait to share them all with you.

See you then!
