Pinkfresh Best Tulips

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! I recently purchased some new Pinkfresh products and needed to play with the Timeless Tulips product suite! It’s so very pretty, and I just couldn’t wait any longer! Let’s go ahead and go through 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 gold foiling the tulips onto a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock. I then used the coordinating stencils to ink blend using Berrylicious, Sweet Mustard, Eucalyptus and Evergreen. I tried to concentrate color at the base of the flowers and leaves to give some added depth. Once satisfied, I used the coordinating die to trim it out.

The background is a very dark green that I dry embossed the Lush Vines Foil Plate onto. I then gold splattered that before adhering the frame, which was created using two of the Double Stitched Rectangles. I left most of the bottom of the frame open so that I could tuck the tulips down into it. The sentiment was gold foiled onto that same dark green cardstock and trimmed out three times for a stacked sentiment. That was glued directly to the panel and the panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape to finish up.

A pretty easy yet beautiful project! The product suites from Pinkfresh make it super easy to create gorgeous projects, so you should definitely check them out, if you haven’t already! Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you have a fabulous week!

Simon Says Stamp Bird Branches

Hello Friends! I’m so glad that you stopped by to check out today’s project featuring the new Bold Bird Branches Embossing Folder from Simon’s latest release Moments In Time. 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 embossing the folder onto a panel of Fern cardstock and rubbing Kale ink over the raised portions of the panel. That left the leaves, flowers and birds the original color. I then took a scrap of Neenah 110lb cardstock and used the included die cut to cut the birds, and then run them through with the folder to get the texture.

The birds were ink blended using Seafoam, Surf and Heather inks. I decided that the flowers on the panel needed some color, so I colored those using Salvaged Patina Distress Paint and a paintbrush. I adhered a black jewel for the eyes on the birds and secured them to the panel using foam strips.

The sentiment is from the new I See You EZ Strips set that I gold foiled and trimmed down. This was adhered with foam strips as well and I added some gold gems to the centers of the flowers to finish up.

Another simple project for today. I really like the look of this technique of adding color to the raised portions of an embossed panel. Have you tried it yet? Don’t forget to stop by and check out the entire Moments In Time release. Thanks again for stopping in, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Relax Snake Plant

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the new Snake Plant Stencil and Die from Simon’s latest release, Moments In Time. Let’s jump right into it.

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

I began this project by gathering a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock, my inks and a Craft Tacky Mat. This stencil set has five stencils, so the inks that I used were Celery, Limelicious, Fairway, Pearfection and Emerald.

Once the ink blending was complete, I used the coordinating die to cut out the leaves. I also cut the leaves from Fern and black cardstock and adhered all of those together, offsetting them slightly. This was then adhered to a Forest panel that I had previously gold splattered.

The sentiment, which is included with the die set, was cut once from gold cardstock and once from black cardstock, while the shadow portion was cut twice from the same Forest cardstock. This was then glued directly atop the leaves to finish up.

That does it for this one! The snake plant always reminds me of my Mom, as she always had one on the front porch. I would love to have one, but the google machine says that they are toxic to cats, and I’m a cat person. Oh well. Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp You Are Amazing Vintage Bloom

Hey There, Friends! Thanks so much for stopping by! Today’s project is featuring the new Vintage Blooms from Simon’s latest release, Moments In Time. This is a super simple project, but I always love dark and dramatic cards, so 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.

This Vintage Blooms stamp set has two larger floral images, and I decided to just use one of them on the corner of a black panel. I stamped the floral using VersaFine Onyx Black Ink and heat set it using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. I then took a deckle edged ruler and ripped off the remaining portion of the panel.

I wanted that rough edge to have some detail, so I rubbed the VersaMark Ink pad along the edge and heat set it using Ranger Princess Gold Embossing Powder. Before adhering the stamped panel to another black panel with foam tape, I gold splattered that for some additional interest.

The sentiment is from a discontinued Simon set, but in looking on their website, Papertrey Ink has some similar items that would work great too. I die cut the sentiment once from gold cardstock and twice from black cardstock for a stacked sentiment and then glued that along the torn edge.

That does it for this project! A dark, clean and simple design! This design would be great for any occasion, but I also can see it as a wedding card as well. Don’t forget to check out the entire Moments In Time release over on Simon’s website. I hope you have an absolutely wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Happy Vintage Blooms

Hello and welcome back, Friends! Today’s project is featuring the new Vintage Blooms from Simon’s latest release, Moments In Time. This set has two larger blooms, but I opted to use just one for this project. Let’s run through the details!

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

I began by gathering a panel of watercolor paper and the inks that I wanted to use. This background was created by smooshing the ink onto my glass mat and adding a touch of water and painting it onto the panel. I wanted a nice wash of color that blended from a peachy color to a pink color. The inks that I used were Distress Oxide Saltwater Taffy and Kitsch Flamingo. I worked one color at a time, drying between the layers.

Once I was satisfied with the wash of color, I went ahead and stamped the florals onto the panel using VersaFine Clair Morning Mist. I really like this ink, because it’s dark, but not too dark like the Onyx Black. I heat set the images using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder and took the panel back to my work area. I wanted to darken the flowers and leaves so that they stood out a little more so I pulled out Distress Oxide Sprays in Broken China, Picked Raspberry, and Saltwater Taffy. I just put a few drops on my glass mat, and painted using a water brush this time. I also wanted some splatter so used the same sprays for that.

I dried the panel and trimmed it out using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames and adhered it to the card base using foam tape. The sentiment, which is from the Just Breathe set, was stamped onto black cardstock using VersaMark Ink and heat set using Detail White Embossing Powder. That was then trimmed out using the coordinating die, along with two more cuts. That was adhered with foam strips, and some clear drops were added to finish up.

That does it for this one! I don’t pull out my Tim Holtz inks too much, but I really enjoy it when I do! Maybe that should tell me something! Thanks for stopping by to check out this project, and I hope you have an amazing day! Don’t forget to stay awesome!

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 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!

Simon Says Stamp Mosaic Just Because

Hello Friends, and welcome back! I hope you’re doing well and having a great day! Today’s project is featuring the new Mosaic Petals Stencil from Simon’s latest release, You Are My Favorite. Let’s run through the details, shall we?

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

I began this project by cutting a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock and putting my panel and stencil onto my Crafty Tacky Mat to begin the inking process. This is a five stencil set, and the inks that I used were Heather, Violet, Limelicious, Pearfection, Lemonade and Honey.

Once done with the inking, I trimmed the panel down using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames and prepared the sentiment. I die cut the Fancy Just Because once from gold cardstock and twice from Neenah, while cutting the shadow portion from green cardstock. I adhered the panel to the card base using foam tape and secured the sentiment with liquid glue. Some gold pearls were added to finish up.

That does it for this project! Like I said, a simple one! Don’t forget to head on over to check out the entire You Are My Favorite release! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your day!

Simon Says Stamp In My Thoughts Botanical

Hello Crafters, and welcome back to my blog! I appreciate you stopping by to check out today’s project featuring the Big Botanicals from Simon’s latest You Are My Favorite release. Let’s not waste time, and get right to the details!

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

I began this project by stamping the flower portion of this stamp using Sunbeam ink, and the leaf portion using Limelicious ink. I just used a Post-It to mask off the areas, so nothing super technical. I then used Copic Markers Y15, Y18, YG05, YG17 and YG23 to add color to the stamped image. I also went in with some colored pencils to add some extra detail to the shaded areas.

Once I was done with the coloring, I fussy cut the image out. As a note, there are coordinating dies for this stamp set, in case you aren’t a big fan of fussy cutting. My background panel was cut using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames and splattered with some gold ink. Once the splatter was dry, I stamped the sentiment, which is from the I’m Sorry set, using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat set using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder.

My panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape, and the floral was adhered using foam strips. I did add a few gold embellishments to tie everything together.

That does it for this project! A relatively clean and simple design for this one. I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope it inspires you to get crafty in your space! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp So Kind Floral

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks for joining me for today’s project featuring the new With Thanks stamp set along with the new Petal-Tipped Labels. There’s a fun Instagram Hop happening today, so you definitely should check that out and leave comments! Simon is giving away a $25 gift certificate from each stop along the hop! There’s a lot going on with this project, so let’s get into it!

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

I began this project by cutting my flowers using the Charming Daisy and the Etched Crocus Stems. I also cut my leaves using Green Apple cardstock and the Budding Branches die. Once those were cut, I did some ink blending using Melon, Cantaloupe, Bubblegum and Pearfection inks. I did go back and cut the centers from black cardstock as well. I assembled the florals and set them aside while I worked on the other elements of the card.

I used two of the dies from the Petal-Tipped Labels and cut one from gold cardstock and one from Neenah 110lb cardstock. The one that was cut from Neenah was run through the die cutting machine using the Tiny Tufts Embossing Folder to add just a touch of muted interest for the background. I adhered those together and began adhering the flowers and leaves.

The sentiment, which is from the new With Thanks set, was stamped using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat set using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. The larger sentiment was stamped and embossed twice for a smoother finish. I then fussy cut the sentiments out with my scissors. I’m not the best fussy cutter, so let’s not look at those details too carefully! There are coordinating die cuts for this set, but I did not have those. Both sentiments were adhered using foam strips for a bit of dimension.

My larger background panel was cut using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames and gold splattered. This was then adhered to the card base using foam tape, and the floral panel was glued in place. To finish up, I added some gold metallic pearls to the berry portion of the Budding Branches.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! I love creating with florals, so this was a super fun project for me! Head on over to Simon’s website to check out the entire You Are My Favorite release, and head over to Instagram to join the hop! Thanks for joining me, and I hope you have an awesome day!
