Thankful Garden Bundle part of our Online Exclusive range

March 7, 2025 By Michelle Last

I have been crafting with brand new products this week from our Online Exclusive range. This bundle is called Thankful Garden and features one of my favourite flowers Hydrangeas.

This bundle is so easy to colour with. You can buy the matching masks. They allow you to quickly and easily add colour using your ink pads and your blending brushes. The bundle includes the stamp set. It also includes coordinating dies and the masks. There are 5 masks in total. There are 3 layered masks for the flowers and 2 layered masks for the leaves.

The technique I used is called Floating Die cut using Press & Seal (which I purchased whilst I was in the USA). If you’d like to try this technique yourself, this is the best tutorial I have found.

I cut my die cuts into a rectangle that are slightly smaller than the perennial postage die. The greeting is from a new online exclusive set called Pattern of Friendship. It really didn’t take long to colour the flowers using the masks. I am excited to try some other colour combinations.

I had plenty of die cuts left over. I went ahead and arranged some more flower die cuts together. This time, I cut out the Countryside Corners die shape.

Card with masked Hydrangeas

This version is the same but different. I used a different greeting and a background die and went slightly bluer tones on the inking of the flower. Which do you prefer? I think I like the second card best.

So I encourage you to try the beautiful masks and the Thankful Garden bundle. If definitely made me excited for Spring and the new growth in the garden.

I have listed all the supplies I have used in my cards which are all available to order from my online shop. Please remember to use the monthly hostess code when shopping with me. And please get in touch if I can help in anyway.

Interactive Mini Album I've been busy behind the Interactive Mini Album

I've been busy behind the scenes creating a special mini album for my team retreat this weekend. I can't wait to spend time with my wonderful team—being creative together, sharing lots of laughs and making this beautiful keepsake. If you've followed me for a while, you'll know I have a real love for mini albums. They're one of my favourite ways to preserve memories because they tell a story that's far bigger than a single scrapbook page....
