Happy 2025 all!
I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with my first make of the year.
I’m not going to lie, crafting in January always feels like a struggle for me, as if I’ve forgotten how to make a card that isn’t for Christmas!
So to ease myself back into it, I have reached for a faithful old friend.
Stamp and stencil combo: The Greetery – Print Shop: Garden Goodness
Sentiment stamp: The Greetery – Tagged Elegance
Dies: The Greetery – Print Shop: Garden Goodness Layers, The Greetery – Tagged Elegance
The Print Shop Garden Goodness stamp and stencil combo from The Greetery.
And to chase the January blues away, I brought out some blue tones to use for the foliage.
I used the Garden Goodness Layers dies to add a little dimension to some of the elements in the background to make them pop more.
The sentiment is from the Tagged Elegance stamp set, cut out with the coordinating die set.
As a finishing touch, I added sparkly gems to the flower centres and Glossy Accents to the buds.
And there we go, the first card of 2025 made!
Until next time, happy crafting!
