Forevery Greenery Suite and a FREE tutorial

Forever Greenery Suite

When you think of leaves you may think of autumn, but the Forever Greenery Suite is here to change your mind!

This gorgeous collection of leafy images and greetings is one of my top must-have items from the new Annual Catalog. The detailed images are timeless and work with a variety of styles from rustic to modern. Use them alone for quick and simple cards or add the dies and coordinating embellishments to really create that wow effect.

These leaves won't fall behind in autumn, I'll be reaching for them to create all year-round. This shabby chic card tutorial is just one example of the colorful creations you can make with this suite!

Love of Leaves and Plaid

The thing I love about the Plaid Tidings paper is that it has a plaid for every occasion. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌&nb sp;‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌

Upcoming Events Bright Plaid Love of Leaves Hello Card Plaids and leaves may make you think of flannel shirts and crisp Autumn days, but I think you'll like this unexpected, bright, warm twist. This card features the Love of Leaves Bundle (#155195) and Plaid Tidings 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper (#153527). The thing I love about the Plaid Tidings paper is that it has a plaid for every occasion. It's great for all the things you might expect from plaid, but the bright colors are great for baby and Easter and the black and white patterns are ideal for elegant birthday or anniversary cards. The stitching detail of the Stitched Leaves Dies (#153567) adds the extra bit of detail that gives a card the perfect finishing touch. 1. Stamp & Die Cut Stamp the two small leaves from the Love of Leaves stamp set on scrap Granny Apple Green and Rich Razzleberry cardstock with VersaMark ink. Die cut with coordinating Stitched Leaves outline and center stitched pattern dies.  2. Stamp & Stitch Stamp assorted leaves from Love of Leaves stamp set on 3-3/4" x 5" Mango Melody cardstock with VersaMark ink. Line up the stitched stripes die at the top of the cardstock and die cut the stitched perforations.   3. Die Cut Leaf Die cut the largest leaf from the Stitched Leaves Dies from the center of the Mango Melody cardstock. 4. Stamp & Punch Greeting Punch one end of a 4" x 1" Melon Mambo cardstock strip with the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch. Stamp greeting near the punched end with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. 5. Card Base & Layers Cut Rich Razzleberry cardstock to 5-1/2" x 8-1/2". Score at 4-1/4" along the 8-1/2" side. Layer 4" x 5-1/4" Plaid Tidings paper onto the front and 4" x 5-1/4" Whisper White cardstock on the inside for a writing area. 6. Add Stampin' Dimensionals Emphasize the die cut image by making it "float" on the card front.  To do this add Stampin' Dimensionals to the back of the Mango Melody layer near the edge of the die cut leaf and at the corners.  Add Stampin' Dimensionals behind the greeting. 7. Add Leaves & Greeting Add greeting to the bottom left of the Mango Melody layer, trim off excess at the edge. Add layer to card front. Add Granny Apple Green leaf with Stampin' SEAL or Mini Glue Dots. Add Rich Razzleberry leaf with Stampin' Dimensionals.   8. Stamp & Cut Stamp "hello" greeting on scrap Whisper White cardstock with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Cut out greeting with Paper Snips and add to card with Mini Glue Dots.
