Spellbinders Layered Poppies

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the Layered Wildflowers along with the Scallop & Stitched Edge Ovals from the Spellbinders May releases. Let’s go ahead and get into the details.

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

While this set has three different flowers, I opted to only use one of them. I began this project by die cutting the flower pieces from Poppy, Fern, Beeswax and black cardstock. I did some ink blending on the petals and centers using Cranberry and Honey inks. Once the ink blending was complete, I assembled the flowers and set them aside while I worked on the remaining elements.

I used the larger scallop oval to cut from black cardstock and used one of the stitched ovals to cut a smaller panel from Neenah 110lb cardstock. I used the Journal Grid to add texture to that white panel for some added interest, as well as some black splatter. I did go ahead and splatter the card base as well to tie everything together.

The sentiment was gold foiled onto black cardstock, and I added foam strips to the back of that. The stems were glued into place and the flowers were adhered with foam strips, as well as the sentiment for a bit of added dimension.

That does it for this project! I love how these poppies turned out, and can totally see myself using these again in the future. Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a great day!

Pinkfresh Regal Florals

Hey There! So glad that you stopped by! For today’s project, I’m revisiting my desire for dark, dramatic Pinkfresh florals! I really like how this one turned out, so let’s go ahead and go through the details!

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

I began by die cutting the Fresh Florals from Purple Mist and Green Apple cardstock. I did some ink blending on the florals using Regal Kiss and some on the purple leaves using Soft Lilac. For the green leaves, I used C9 Avocado ink. I went back and cut a few centers from gold cardstock and went ahead and assembled the flowers using foam strips between the purple and green layers. I also glued the leaves together, offsetting those slightly.

The Leafy Lattice was gold foiled onto Plum cardstock and trimmed out using the coordinating die cut. The sentiment was gold foiled as well on the same plum cardstock and trimmed out three times for a stacked sentiment.

The background was created using the PFS Sparkling Diamonds plate, which I think was discontinued. That’s a shame, because I really do love this die cut. I adhered the lattice to the panel using liquid glue, and then began gluing the leaves in place. The sentiment was adhered using foam strips, and the flowers were the last thing to be adhered.

That does it for this project! While I do love the pastel vibe of Pinkfresh, I also love a dramatic Pinkfresh project as well! At this point, I’m challenging myself to create darker cards using their products. I hope you enjoyed this one as much as I did! Thanks again for stopping by, and have a wonderful day!

Spellbinders Birthday Cosmos

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the new Cosmos, as well as the Journal Grid in a clean and simple design. These products are from the May releases, and you should definitely check them out! Let’s go right into 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 cutting the Cosmos from Neenah 110lb cardstock and the pieces from pink and yellow cardstocks. I did some light ink blending on the petals using Peony ink, drew some veins with a pink colored pencil and assembled the flower with liquid glue. I wanted this flower on a stem so I used the Layered Wildflowers set and cut that from Green Apple cardstock with some ink blending with Pearfection ink.

The Journal Grid BetterPress Plate was inked using Misty Coast ink, trimmed down and gold splattered for some additional interest. I chose the light grey ink because I wanted a subtle background for this card.

I gold foiled the You Are Everything Plate onto Neenah 110lb and trimmed it out with the coordinating die, along with two additional cuts because I love that stacked sentiment look. The background was adhered to the card base and the leaves and flower were glued in place while the sentiment were adhered using foam strips.

That finishes up this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Don’t forget to check out all of the May releases over on the Spellbinders website! Thanks again for joining me, and have a fabulous day!

Spellbinders Thinking of You Anemone

Hello Friends, and thanks for stopping by! The May Spellbinders releases are live, and I’m back today with a project featuring the Anemone, along with the Script Text BetterPress Plate and the Summer Solstice Garden Sentiments. Let’s go ahead and get into 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 Anemone from Neenah 110lb cardstock, along with black and yellow for the pieces. I did some light ink blending on the petals using Peony ink. I knew that I was going to want some leaves, so I cut those using the Vivid Blooms set from Green Apple cardstock and did some ink blending on those with Pearfection ink.

I gold foiled the Script Text plate onto Neenah 110lb cardstock, and gold foiled the sentiment onto black cardstock. I trimmed out the sentiment with the coordinating die, along with two additional cuts for a stacked sentiment. I trimmed the script background and gold splattered it before adhering it to a black panel.

The leaves were secured in place using liquid glue, while the flowers and the sentiment were adhered using foam strips. To finish up, everything was adhered to the card base, and I added some gold metallic pearls to one leaf.

That does it for this project! I hope you’ll take some time to check out all of the new May releases over on the Spellbinders website! There really is a lot of good stuff! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Spellbinders Floral Birthday Grid

Hello Friends, and welcome back! The May Spellbinders releases are live today, and I’m back with a project featuring the new Journal Grid along with the Anemone and Cosmos florals. Let’s run through the details for this one!

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 Anemone and Cosmos flowers from Neenah 110lb, pink, yellow and black cardstocks. I did some light ink blending on the flowers using Bubblegum ink. Once the ink blending was complete, I assembled the flowers using liquid glue and set those aside while I figured out the rest of the card.

I went ahead and gold foiled the Journal Grid onto a panel of Neenah 110lb and added some gold splatter for additional interest. While I was foiling, I gold foiled the Summer Solstice Garden Sentiments onto black cardstock and trimmed that out with the coordinating die, along with two additional cuts for a stacked look.

I adhered the grid to my card base using foam tape, and started playing around with placement. I decided that I need some other florals and leaves and cut those using Vivid Blooms and Sealed Wildflowers from pink, yellow and green cardstock. I did do some ink blending on one of the smaller flowers using Carnation ink and some Pearfection ink on the leaves.

I secured the leaves in place on the panel using liquid glue, followed by the smaller flowers and then the larger flowers. The sentiment was glued in place, and I added some Gold Metallic Pearls to finish up.

That does it for this project! Everyone knows that I love florals, so I really enjoyed this project! I think that I’m going to get a lot of use out of this Grid Journal Press Plate, as you can use it with inks and foils, which I love! Don’t forget to head over to the Spellbinders website to check out all of the new releases! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Pinkfresh Leafy Butterfly Bliss

Hello Friends, and thanks so much for joining me! I recently received a few new goodies from Pinkfresh and wanted to play! After creating my dark navy and gold card, I wanted to give a dark card another go! The Pinkfresh vibe is usually pastel, but you can create some serious gorgeousness using dark colors as well. This card is a combination of pastel and dark, and I hope you like it!

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

I began this project by gold foiling the Joyful Day Press Plate twice onto Neenah 110lb cardstock. I then used the coordinating stencils to add color using Aquamarine and Tidal Pond inks. Once that was done, I used the coordinating die cut to trim them out. I did go back and add some very light ink blending to the edges of the leaves, because I did not want the stark white edges against my dark background.

I then gold foiled the new Butterfly Bliss Press Plate onto Neenah and ink blended those using Soft Lilac, Sheer Freesia, Hydrangea, Lavender and Licorice inks. I die cut the butterflies using the coordinating dies along with a purple layer as well. Those two were adhered together and set aside.

The background was cut using the Double Stitched Rectangles from Forest cardstock and then gold splattered for some added interest. The sentiment, which is from the Joyful Day set, was gold foiled onto the same Forest cardstock and trimmed out along with two additional cuts for a stacked sentiment.

I adhered the green panel to the card base and I placed pieces of foam strips on the back of the ink blended leaves and adhered those in place, along with the butterfly, trimming off the excess. The sentiment was secured in place using liquid glue, as were the gold metallic pearls. I decided that I wanted some tiny flowers to adorn the leaves, so I cut some of those using Spellbinders Floral Spray from Teal Topaz and Plum cardstocks.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! I really do love incorporating dark colors into a Pinkfresh project just to give it a different feel! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Spellbinders Just A Note Daisies

Hello Friends, and welcome back! Here’s another project featuring the Yana’s Daisies from the Spellbinders April releases. Let’s get right into the details, shall we?

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 daisies once from Neenah 110lb cardstock and once from gold cardstock. I also cut the base layer from Neenah as well for the assembly. While the white petals were still in place, I did some ink blending on those using Morning and Heather inks.

I adhered the gold outline portion to the base layer using liquid glue, and then adhered the ink blended petals in place, along with the gold centers. The sentiment, which is from the Crafty Hugs Sentiments, was gold foiled onto Neenah and trimmed out several times for a stacked sentiment look.

My background panel was created using the Nested Postage Labels & Tag, and then splattered with gold acrylic ink. This panel was adhered to the card base, the daisies were adhered using foam tape and the sentiment was adhered using foam strips. I decided that I needed some additional leaves and cut those from the Club Blooms set using Neenah and gold cardstock. I added some clear drops to finish up this project.

I hope you enjoyed this one! The Yana’s Daisies products are super gorgeous and if you haven’t checked them out, I do encourage you to do so! Thanks for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Spellbinders Bold Daisy Trio

Hello Friends and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the new Daisy Trio and Crafty Hugs Sentiments from the Spellbinders April releases! Let’s not waste time and go ahead and go 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 adding BetterPress Black ink to the Daisy Trio BetterPress Plate and running that through the Platinum Six. I did have to repeat this process several times to get a good dark impression. Once satisfied with the black, I used the coordinating stencils to add color to the daisies using Honey, Citrine, Guava, Sprout and Field inks.

This panel was then trimmed down using the Nested Postage Labels & Tag set, and adhered to the card base using foam tape. The sentiment, which is from the new Crafty Hugs Sentiments set, was gold foiled onto black cardstock and trimmed out several times for a stacked sentiment. This was secured with liquid glue, along with some Gold Metallic Pearls for a little bit of shine.

That does it for this project! I do love a dark card sometimes! I hope you enjoyed this project! Thanks for stopping by, and don’t forget to stay awesome!

Spellbinders Feel Better Daisies

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back to my blog! The new April releases from Spellbinders are live, and I’m back today with a project featuring Yana’s Daisies! Yana makes beautiful florals, and I was so excited to be able to play with this collection! Let’s go ahead and go 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 cutting Yana’s Daisies several times from Neenah 110lb cardstock. You’ll see in a later post where I use the outline of the daisies, but for this post, I wanted to use all of these petals that were leftover from that project! I picked out a bunch of the petals and did some light ink blending on those using Bubblegum ink. I also did some ink blending on the centers using Honey ink.

I retrieved some Press n Seal from the kitchen, and arranged the petals upside down around one of the centers, basically creating my own flower with the pieces. Once everything was arranged, I placed tiny pieces of foam tape on the back of the flower pieces. Once that was done, I arranged the flowers onto my panel, which I had previously splattered with gold acrylic ink.

I wanted some greenery for the flowers, so I die cut one of the leaves from the Club Blooms set from Green Apple cardstock and did some ink blending using Artichoke ink. I tucked those under the petals and secured them in place with liquid glue.

The sentiment, which is from the You Are Everything Sentiments set, was gold foiled and trimmed out several times with the coordinating die and adhered atop the panel with foam strips. To finish up, I added some Gold Metallic Pearls for some added shine.

That does it for this project! I thought this project was going to be a lot more tedious than it was, and I think that was because of the Press n Seal! Don’t forget to head on over to Spellbinders to check out all of the April releases! Thanks again for joining me, and have a wonderful day!

Pinkfresh Dark Floral Beauty

Hello Crafty Friends! Thanks so much for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring some relatively new Pinkfresh goodies. I have a problem .. I purchase Pinkfresh products, and then I never use them, so I’m trying to do something about that! With that being said, I love the pastel, floral vibe of Pinkfresh, but I wanted to try my hand at a dark Pinkfresh card. Let me know what you think in the comments. 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.

Ok, so I knew I wanted dark colors, but I didn’t want to go my usual route of black and grays, so I opted for blues and gold. I began by gold foiling the Interlaced Diamond Press Plate onto Indigo cardstock and used the coordinating die to trim it out. I also cut one from black and adhered those together using liquid glue. My next step was to cut the Fresh Florals from Partly Cloudy cardstock. This is an older Spellbinders cardstock, and I think the comparable new ColorWheel color would be Malibu.

Once all of the florals and leaves were cut, I did some ink blending on the flowers using Stargazer ink. I went pretty heavy handed as I wanted the flowers to match the indigo. After I was done ink blending, I decided that it might be pretty to add a layer of gold to everything, so I cut the Fresh Florals again from gold cardstock. I adhered the blue flowers to the gold flowers using foam squares, because I wanted to be able to see the underlying layer. I then assembled the rest of the flowers with liquid glue.

I gold foiled the sentiment, which is from the Favorite Things set, onto the same indigo cardstock and used the coordinating die to trim it out twice. Before beginning the assembly of the card, I cut a panel of the indigo and gold splattered that to add a bit of background interest.

The Interlaced Diamonds was adhered first and then I began adhering the leaves. I glued the gold leaves in place and then glued the blue leaves atop those but slightly off center. I then glued the flowers in place and adhered the sentiment in the center using foam strips. To finish up, I added gold metallic pearls to the centers of the flowers.

That does it for this project! So, how do you feel about a dark Pinkfresh card? Don’t get me wrong, I do love me some pastel colors too, but I needed to try this. I appreciate you swinging by to check out this project, and I hope you have a wonderful day! Stay awesome, friend!
