The Greetery {Urban Jungle Collection} Day 2

Welcome back for day 2 of full reveals for the Urban Jungle Collection from The Greetery! Thank you for all of your sweet comments on yesterday's post! I have three projects to share with you today using even more fabulous new products; make sure to head to The Greetery Blog for the official "meet and greet" for all of today's featured products! Also, make sure to leave a comment here, and on each designers' blog, for a chance to win one of two $50 gift certificates to the shop!

My first card for today uses the ADORABLE new Modern Planters die set paired with the new Plant It: Spider and Plant It: Silver Dollar Succulent dies, the new Woven Cane Background, and last, but not least, the Way to Grow stamp set.

I die cut everything but the background and sentiment from white cardstock and then added Distress Oxide ink to color them. The Modern Planter dies are so easy to assemble, but make the plant stand and pots look so real!

There is a slit in the top of each pot so you can easily add the plants. If you want to use the pots without the stand, the die collection also comes with the coordinating saucer so they can sit on the "ground".

I die cut the Woven Cane background from Weathervane cardstock and then glued it to he top of an A2 Weathervane card base. I die cut some arches using the previously released A2 Arches Die to create a "window" to ground the plants. I heat embossed the sentiment and added it over the top using foam squares.

My second card for today reminds me a little bit of the Tiki Room at Disneyland, minus the birds)! ha ha! I'm absolutely in love with the new Wicker Stencil and think it really adds to the charm of the new Large Leaves; I used all three varieties: Monstera, Fern, and Palm dies.

I used another one of the punn-y sentiments included in the Way to Grow stamp set, heat embossed in white onto a black strip of cardstock.

I had fun pulling out the Jumbo Curiosity: Moth die to create another naturesque element for my card.

My third and final card for today uses the beautiful new BotaniCuts: Hibiscus dies paired with a few of the Large Leaves and the new Wicker Stencil. I loved how it came out in three shades of blue!

This card was all cut from white cardstock with the exception of the sentiment. The Hibiscus flowers are probably one of the easiest to assemble out of all of the BotaniCuts (in my opinion). I had fun inking them up and gluing them together!

The sentiment, which is from the New Day Sentiments stamp set is heat embossed in white onto black cardstock and then die cut using the coordinating New Day Sentiments dies.

I added an arch to frame the flowers and then layered everything up onto the stenciled background. I added some black paint splatter, but I covered up the main floral cluster using a post-it note.

I had SUCH a great time creating all of these projects for this release and I hope you love these new products as much as I do! It's been fun making paper flowers, pots, and plants because that's what I've been doing in real life in my yard....planting, potting, and more planting! ha ha! My yard takes quite a bit of work to get it whipped into shape for the summer, but it is totally worth it because I enjoy spending time outside! 

The new release will be available for purchase tomorrow morning at 10 am ET. Don't forget to leave a comment on the other designers' blogs for a chance to win one of the gift certificates! Thanks for fluttering by!
