I began my project by gold foiling the Pinkfresh Plumeria Press Plate twice. I did it twice, because I wasn’t sure if I was going to use one or two on my card. Once the foiling was complete, I pulled the inks that I thought best matched the featured card number. I began my ink blending using the coordinating stencils and then trimmed them out using the coordinating dies.

The backgrounds was created by gold splattering the Ornate Banner and the Stitched Basket Weave.. As I always say, I needed more leaves, so I cut the Curvy Leaves from Peridot and Gold cardstock. Unfortunately, I was unable to locate the banner and leaves to link to, but just use items in your stash!

The banner and panel were adhered to the card bases, the leaves were secured in place using liquid glue and the floral panel was adhered with foam tape. The sentiments were gold foiled as well, added with foam tape, and some gold metallic pearls were added to tie it all together and finish up.

That does it for this month’s project! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope you’ll go check out the other designer’s projects using this same card number from the Color Cubes. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Together by Design Featuring Pinkfresh Studio

This month’s featured brand:  Pinkfresh Studio

For this month’s Pinkfresh project, I used several different products, and I’ll list all of those at the bottom of this post. I began my project by gold foiling the Timeless Tulips and ink blending using the coordinating stencils. Once satisfied with those results, I trimmed it out with the coordinating die. I really love the product suites that Pinkfresh offers, and am noticing that more companies are jumping on that bandwagon.

My background was created using the Blanket Stitched Octagons with some ink blending and gold splatter. When I was foiling, I went ahead and foiled the sentiment and the small butterfly onto acetate. I’m not sure the Small Butterflies set is made anymore, unfortunately. Those were trimmed out using the coordinating die cuts as well.

The florals were adhered to the background using foam tape, the sentiment was glued in place and the butterfly was secured with strong double sided tape. The panel was adhered to the card base, and I trimmed off the edges with scissors to give it that shaped card look. Some clear drops were in order to finish this project up.

I hope you like it as much as I do! This is a beautiful color combination, and I love how it turned out! Stay tuned for next month where we will feature a different company, and you can see how we all have our own spin on things! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Together By Design featuring Kristina Werner with Concord and 9th

Together by Design is a monthly collaboration where a small group of designers all create with products from the same featured brand. Each of us chooses a favorite product and puts our own creative spin on it, showing just how many different ways one brand can inspire. Follow along, explore every project, and discover new designers and new favorites along the way.

This month’s featured brand:  Kristina Werner with Concord & 9th

Here is a list of designers participating this month:

For this month’s project, I opted to use several products from Kristina including the Pretty Posies Background Stamp, along with Pretty Posies Dies, Written Words Stamps and the Long Line Leaves Dies. My design ended up being a twofer, hence using multiple sentiment sets. Let’s go through the detail

I began by stamping the Pretty Posies Background onto a panel of black cardstock using VeraMark Ink and heat setting that using Ranger Princess Gold Embossing Powder. I then took my scissors and fussy cut around the flowers creating two separate panels.

Truth be told, I could have cut the panel apart better and ended up with a larger second panel, but what was done was done! Before adhering the panels with foam tape, I did gold splatter both card bases, stamped the Feel Better Soon sentiment with VersaFine Black Onyx ink and heat set that using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder.

I die cut the sentiment for the other card three times using the same black cardstock for a stacked sentiment look, along with three small flowers for added interest. To finish up, I added some gold gems to the centers of the flowers.

I hope you enjoyed this project as much as I did! I don’t often do twofer projects, but am pleasantly surprised when it happens that way! Stay tuned next month where we will feature a different brand that all of us will be creating with! Stay awesome, friend and have an awesome day!
