Pinkfresh Blooming Leafy Lattice

Hello Friends, and welcome back! I recently received my Pinkfresh order with goodies from the March release, and I found some time to play! This project is featuring the new Blooming Grace Washi Tape and the Leafy Lattice Press Plate. Let’s not waste time and go ahead and run through the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by smoothing out a panel of the washi tape onto Neenah 110lb cardstock, and using the coordinating die to trim those pieces out. I then went ahead and gold foiled the Leafy Lattice and trimmed that out with coordinating die as well. I wanted a background for all of my elements, so I used the Sparkling Diamonds die cut. I haven’t been able to locate this die cut on the Pinkfresh website, so I’m not sure if it has been discontinued. But, I thought it worked really well with the way I wanted to orient the lattice.

My next step was to play around with the placement of everything, and before adhering anything, I did some light ink blending on the background panel using Peony ink. I placed foam strips on the back of the lattice and adhered that to my panel first. I decided that I needed some additional green leaves, so I used the Fresh Florals die and ink blended those leaves using Fresh Pear and Olive inks.

The sentiment was already in my stash, and that is from the Here For You Sentiments Press Plate, which I had gold foiled as well. I went ahead and adhered the sentiment in the center using the same foam strips, glued the green leaves in place, and then adhered the washi tape pieces, again with foam strips. To finish up, I added some Gold Metallic Pearls.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. If you’ve never tried the Pinkfresh washi tapes, I definitely encourage you to give it a try! They are simple to use, and yield beautiful card results! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Rain or Shine Blog Hop – Day 1

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! Today I’m super excited to be participating in the SSS Blog Hop to celebrate their latest release, Rain or Shine! Hop along with us and comment on each post for your chance to win a $25 gift certificate to the Simon store! Simon will be giving away a gift certificate to one lucky commenter from each stop along the way! I’ll list the participants of the Hop at the bottom of my post for your convenience. And, stay tuned for the Blog Hop Day 2 tomorrow for more inspiration and chances to win! My project for today is featuring the new Snowbell Bouquet in a shadow frame. I really enjoy creating shadow frames as a little decorative element for your home or your craft room or anywhere, really. Let’s go ahead and run through the details.

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting the Snowbells LOTS of times from Neenah 110lb cardstock and Green Apple cardstock. Once everything was cut, I did some light ink blending on the flowers using Gravel ink and on the stems and leaves using Fairway and Field ink.

I assembled the flowers and adhered them to the stems and cut a background panel that would fit inside the frame from dark green cardstock. I wanted a little more interest, so I splattered it with yellow spray. I chose that one because I knew that it would show up on dark cardstock.

The sentiment was created using the Just Breathe set. I stamped it onto black cardstock using VersaMark ink and heat set it using Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed it out with the coordinating die four times to achieve that stacked look.

When the panel dried, I arranged the flowers and sentiment in a way that I was satisfied with and then began adhering them with liquid glue. The sentiment was added with foam tape for added dimension. Once the flowers and sentiment were in their places, I went back and added the leaves here and there to fill in.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Have you tried making a shadow frame? I always end up making mine to send to Simon headquarters, and I really need to make one for myself one of these days! Don’t forget to join the Blog Hop and comment along the way for your chance to win a gift certificate! Thanks for joining me, and I hope you have a great day!

Simon Says Stamp Floral Harlequin Thank You

Hello Friends, and thanks so much for stopping by! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Pepita Background from Simon’s latest release, Rain or Shine. This project is also featuring the new Thank You Basics set, which is a staple to have in your stash! Let’s go ahead and go through the details for this one.

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by stamping the Pepita Background onto a black panel using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting it using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. I repeated that process for a second time to get a smoother embossed finish. I think the black on black with the glossy pattern is just amazing! I wanted this panel to be just smaller than my card base, so I made some marks and began cutting around the design. I absolutely love the edging of the panel!

I went ahead and splattered my card base with black ink and set that aside to dry while I worked on the other elements. I die cut the Autumn Sunflower twice from Neenah 110lb cardstock, which gave me four pieces. I also die cut the Privet Branch twice from Neenah, and cut the Winsome branch a couple of times from black cardstock.

I did some ink blending on the flower using Bubblegum and Carnation inks. I was a bit more heavy handed on the bottom layer and lighter on the top layers. The leaves were ink blended using Celery, Pearfection and Seafoam inks. I love adding Seafoam to green ink blending as I think it adds a nice little pop of color. I assembled the flower and decided to go back and cut the center from black cardstock to bring some cohesiveness.

I stamped the sentiment, which is from the new Thank You Basics set, using VersaMark ink and heat set that using Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed it down so that it would fit nicely in the center of my flower. The background panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape, and I began adhering the green leaves first with liquid glue. Next, I adhered the black leaves, the flower and the sentiment. To finish up, I added a few clear drops.

This card has so much dimension, and I love it! I think it would have been pretty with an aqua colored flower as well, or any color of flower! I hope you enjoyed this project, as I sure did! Don’t forget to check out the entire Rain or Shine release over on Simon’s website. Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have an absolutely wonderful day!

Spellbinders Floral Frame Grid

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks so much for stopping by today! I’ve had the My Life in Pictures set from the Spellbinders March releases on my desk, and finally found time to play with it and I’m so happy with what I came up with! Let’s go ahead and run through the details.

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting the frame portion of the set a few times from Neenah 110lb cardstock and black cardstock. I poked out the little edge pieces from the white and left them in place on the black, and adhered the frames together with liquid glue. I also die cut the smile sentiment in the set once from gold, twice from Neenah and once from black cardstock and adhered all of those together, offsetting the black layer ever so slightly.

I wanted to create a grid type pattern, so I pulled out several floral sets that had some smaller die cuts in them. I also pulled a few colors of Spellbinders cardstock as well. I’ll list all of those supplies at the bottom of this post for your convenience. Once everything was cut, I did some light ink blending on the pieces using Guava, Gravel and Field inks. Once that was complete, I assembled the flowers and set those aside while I assembled the rest of the card.

For assembly, I cut a panel of Neenah slightly smaller than my card base and began adhering the frame pieces on a diagonal, trimming off the excess when complete. I then adhered the leaves in place and then secured the flowers with a mix of foam squares and liquid glue. The panel was adhered to the card base, the sentiment was glued directly in place and gold metallic pearls were added to finish up.

A relatively simple card design, but a little time consuming with all of the die cutting. I happen to love die cutting so I didn’t mind it all, and I really love how this card turned out! I appreciate you stopping by, and I hope you have an absolutely wonderful day!

Spellbinders Floral Scribbled Letter

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! The Spellbinders March releases are available, and I’m back today with a project featuring the new Scribbled Letter Embossing Folder, along with the Holding Your Heart Sentiments BetterPress Plates. Can I just say right away that I absolutely love this embossing folder?! I love something that gives just a hint of texture but adds to the project! Let’s go ahead and run through the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by pulling cardstock colors that I wanted to use, which were Blush, Dahlia, Waterfall, Teal Topaz, Peridot, Fern, Beeswax and Saffron. I did use some Neenah for the white flowers as well. Once the papers were pulled, I went to work die cutting the flowers and leaves from the Colorful Expressions Blooms.

Those pieces were then ink blended using Carnation, Field, Honey, Surf and Gravel inks before being assembled. I created the background using the Scribbled Letter folder and then lightly rubbed a gold ink pad across the raised side of the panel. The sentiment, which is from the new Holding Your Heart Sentiments BetterPress Plates, was gold foiled and trimmed down.

I adhered the background panel to my card base first and then secured all of the other pieces with liquid glue, beginning with the underneath pieces. I added gold metallic pearls to the one branch and the three white flowers before adding the sentiment with foam strips.

That does it for this project! You all know that I love florals, so I really enjoyed this project, and I’m sure that I’m going to get lots of use from this embossing folder! Don’t forget to check out all of the new March releases over on Spellbinders’ website. Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Carry On With Courage

Hello Friends, and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring florals with some absolutely gorgeous paper from Your Paper Insider! I love grays and black, but this pink cardstock is beyond gorgeous! The color doesn’t come through in the pictures, but it’s the softest, palest pink that I’ve ever come across, and I thought it paired so well with the dark colors on this card. If you haven’t checked out Your Paper Insider, I highly recommend that you do so! It’s a fun subscription box that features papers from all over the world to include many cardstock colors and specialty papers. Let’s go ahead and get into the details for this project.

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting some florals and leaves from the Spellbinders Vivid Blooms set using all of these colors from my subscription box. Once the florals were assembled, I went ahead and used the PinkFresh Studio Sparkling Diamonds plate on a panel of darker gray cardstock.

Before moving on, I did splatter that panel with some black acrylic ink for some added interest. The sentiment was created using the PinkFresh Studio Wonderful Sentiments and Opal foil. The was die cut several times to create a stacked sentiment.

I began assembling the card by adhering the gray leaves first using liquid glue and then adhering the pink leaves atop those. I then adhered the outside flowers, again with liquid glue, and then adhered the center flower with foam tape. The sentiment was adhered with foam strips, and I tucked in some additional leaves to fill in. Clear drops were added to finish up.

That does it for this project. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Take some time to check out Your Paper Insider to see if it’s something that interests you! Thanks again for hanging out with me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp All My Love

Hello Friends, and thanks for joining me! There’s a super fun Instagram Hop going on today to celebrate the Simon Favorite Things release! Definitely check that out and comment along the hop for your chance to win a $25 gift card at each stop! Today’s project is featuring the new Parisian Frame and Pretty Bows, so let’s go ahead and get into the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by stamping the Parisian Frame pieces using VersaFine Onyx Black ink. I then did some light ink blending over the top using Bubblegum ink. I trimmed the frame down and adhered it to white foam and then trimmed the foam down. I also darkened up the stamped flowers with Copic Marker R85. At this point, I wasn’t sure where the card was going, so I went ahead and die cut some flowers and leaves using the Elegant Blossom Branch, Cosmos Duo and the Budding Branches.

While I was cutting, I went ahead and cut the centers of the flowers from black cardstock as well. I did some light ink blending on the pieces using Bubblegum, Carnation, Celery and Seafoam inks. I splattered the card base with black acrylic ink and cut a panel using the Scalloped Rectangles. The panel was adhered to the card base first and then the Parisian Frame was adhered atop that.

The leaves were adhered first, followed by the flowers. Bubblegum Dazzling Gems were then added, and I decided that one of the Pretty Bows would add a nice touch, so I cut that once from Neenah and once from gold and adhered those together. The bow was then added just underneath one of the flowers to finish up.

That does it for this one! I hope you’ll stop by and check out the entire Favorite Things release over on Simon’s website! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

PinkFresh Studio Leafy Garden Party with Your Paper Insider

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back to my blog! A little while back, I received a special box from Your Paper Insider and decided to create some gorgeous flowers with some of the paper, and today’s project is that result! If you haven’t checked them out, I highly recommend that you do! It’s a super, fun subscription box filled with at least 20 different papers from around the world, to include gorgeous cardstock colors, specialty papers and art papers. Ok, let’s go ahead and go through the details for this project.

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting flowers using the Garden Party set and papers from Your Paper Insider. I did do some ink blending on the flowers, to add more depth, using Sweet Mustard and Atlantis inks. You guys know that I always have to use more leaves so I used the Leafy Branch and foiled the Joyful Day leaves.

Continuing to work on the focal point of the card, I used the Charming Stitched Florals and then used the Folk Edge Circles to cut a small panel. The sentiment, which is from the Wonderful Sentiments BetterPress set, was gold foiled and trimmed out using the coordinating die cut.

Before assembling the pieces, I gold splattered my card base for added interest and began by adhering the foiled leaves using liquid glue. The circular panel was then adhered using foam tape and the smaller white leaves were adhered next. The flowers and sentiment were added lastly to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you’ll take a look at Your Paper Insider! I’m looking forward to creating more projects with the goodies in my box! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Pastel Floral Hello

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Pretty Bows from Simon’s latest release, Favorite Things. Let’s run through the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by doing a bunch of die cutting! I used the Etched Crocus Stems to cut the flowers, the Budding Branches to cut the leaves, and the Double Plaid Cover for the background. All of that was cut from Neenah 110lb cardstock, while the Script Hello sentiment and one of the Pretty Bows were cut from gold cardstock. Now we all know that I like stacked sentiments, so that was cut an additional two times from Neenah and the bow was cut one additional time and all of those were adhered together using liquid glue.

Some light ink blending was added to the flowers and leaves using Bubblegum and Seafoam inks. Once done with the flowers, I assembled those and began the assembly of the card. The card base was splattered with gold before adding the Double Plaid Cover.

The leaves were secured with glue first, followed by the flowers. The bow and sentiment were added next, along with some Gold Metallic Pearls to bring all of the gold together.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Don’t forget to stop over at Simon’s website to check out the entire Favorite Things release! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Spellbinders Floral ColorWheel

Hey There, Friends! Thanks for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring a shaped card using the new Color Swatch Wheel from Spellbinders. I’ve made several shaped cards lately, and I have to say that I quite enjoy it! Let’s go ahead and run through the details for this project!

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began by die cutting the larger Color Wheel twice from Neenah 110lb cardstock. I scored one of those at 1/8th and used the bone folder to give it a good crease before securing the two pieces together with liquid glue. I then went to work cutting the different colors of cardstock using the swatch layer die cut.

The color combination for this card came from a Color Cube inspiration. I’ve said it before, if you haven’t tried the Color Cube, I highly recommend it! The new ColorWheel cardstock colors used on this card were Peridot, Saffron, Waterfall, Beeswax, Teal Topaz and Dahlia. Once all of those were cut, I glued them in place and went to work on the florals.

I used all of the same colors for the florals, which is from the Little Blooms set, with the addition of Raven. I assembled the flowers and then began gluing everything in its place beginning with the leaves. The middle flower was secured with a foam square for a little bit of dimension. The sentiment, which is from the Making Me Smile Sentiments set, was gold foiled onto Raven cardstock and trimmed out several times with the included die cut. That was then glued atop the floral. I added some gold metallic pearls to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope it inspires you to create with the new ColorWheel cardstock colors and possibly to create a shaped card. Thanks again for joining me, and I have you have a fabulous day!
