It's NEW RELEASE DAY at Trinity Stamps and I am thrilled to celebrating with them in both the Instagram Hop and YouTube Hop.
You can check out the entire NEW RELEASE right HERE.
There is one new product that I just had to play with first and that is the Clover Stencil. It is an add on to the Checkered Stencil from the January release. That means you can use the two together. But what I love so much is that you can use the Clover stencil on it's own too. So I used these stencils in both of my cards for the hop. Both cards are also shakers, I used the Stitched Shamrock die to make my shakers and am showing two different ways to do that too in my video.
I loved using the traditional green for St. Patrick's Day along with pink for these cards. And did you notice the sentiments on these cards? If you are familiar with Trinity Stamps you probably know about their line of Simply Sentimental sets. These sentiments are from the NEW Simply Sentimental Lucky stamp and die sets. You can see these cards come together in the video below. If for some reason you are not able to see the video up on your screen, you can check it out right here.
Here are few close up pictures of each card.
For this card I layered the clover stencil over the checkered stencil pattern. I love the layered look in shades of green.
This shaker sits on top of the background. I filled it with Clover Cluster Confetti, a great embellishment from this release! The sentiment is stamped and embossed with gold, a great way to tie in the feel of St. Patrick's day, add something gold!
I took this one up a notch on the background for sure. First I stenciled on the Checkered Background. Then in the open spaces I added the clovers with the new Clover Add-On Stencil. Lastly, I had to incorporate the hearts add-on stencil too, using a darker ink so they stood out over the checkers.
This shaker is inlaid, it's right in the card front. I also use the Clover Cluster Confetti plus some pink seed beads. This time I used the dies from the Simply Sentimental Lucky for the main part of the sentiment and stamped the sub sentiment right on the card front.
