Penny here! Welcome back! It’s Day 3 of our October Release Countdown!

Today’s peek blends cozy style, layered florals, and a powerful message of hope. These new additions bring depth, meaning, and natural movement to your holiday (and year-round) creating. Let’s take a closer look! ✨🌿

 

Farmhouse Vase Stamps & Dies

A classic vessel with gentle curves and coordinating accents, perfect for anchoring bouquets, single stems, or seasonal sprigs. Keep it clean and simple or build layered arrangements for a soft, vintage-inspired look.

 

Into the Blooms: Bold Berries Dies

Full, dimensional berry branches with mix-and-match leaves add instant texture and fullness to any design. Tuck them into the Farmhouse Vase, frame a sentiment, or cluster them for rich, festive focal points.

 

Reflections: John 16 Stamps & Dies

“Be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” This meaningful scripture makes a striking centerpiece for faith-focused cards. Elegant typography and coordinating dies give you polished options for framing and layering. ✝️

OTHER: white acrylic paint, fossilized amber distress spray, walnut stain distress oxide ink, brown marker, Silent Night Hot Foil Plate, Beautiful Berries Hot Foil Plate, champagne foil, red foil, Shimmer Spray: Sparkle, Tim Holtz Distress Rock Candy Clear Glitter, gold embossing powder, Corner Rounder punch

TIPS: 

  • Try adding ink with a blender brush on the vase for the first step, and then add the detailed image with the stamp. This will create a seamless look without a white border.
  • Tuck the branches where you want them before adding the berries and simply attach to the back of the vase with tape. Once you are satisfied with placement, at the berries using foam squares.
  • Don’t shy away from using two foiled backgrounds; use a border and the sheet music for a custom combination.

    Especially those with John 16 on them.
