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!

Many Thanks Roses

Hello Friends and welcome back! Thanks for joining me! Today’s project is mostly all PinkFresh Studio products, with a Simon product thrown in. I’ve always said that I absolutely love PinkFresh Washi Tapes, and the newest washis are no different! Let’s run through the details for this one, shall we?

Main Products:

I began this project by cutting several panels of the newest PFS Fluttering Butterflies Washi and the PFS Vines and Roses Washi using the coordinating dies. These two sets work so perfectly together! Once the washi tapes were cut, I went to work on the design of the card.

The background panel was stamped onto a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using the PFS Bougainvillea Print stamp with PFS Misty Coast ink. I chose this ink because I wanted a subtle background image, and this grey is absolutely great for that. Once it was stamped, I trimmed it down using the PFS Diagonal Stitched Rectangles and moved on. I love using the washi tape pieces around a focal point so I cut the PFS Ornate Circle and put SSS 3D Foam Strips on the back.

The sentiment is from the PFS Modern Script Sentiments Foil Plate set, and I used gold foil for that and used the coordinating die to cut it out along with two additional pieces, adhering all of those together with liquid glue. As I always say, all of my florals always need additional leaves, so I opted to use the SSS Budding Branches for this.

Now to assemble the card! The circle was place in the center of the panel, and I arranged the washi tape pieces around the top and bottom portions, securing with a combination of glue and foam strips for support. I did tuck in the white leaves for added interest and added PFS Gold Metallic Pearls to the ‘bud’ portions. The sentiment was glued directly to the panel before everything was adhered to the card base.

That does it for this one! If you haven’t tried the PinkFresh washi tapes, I highly encourage you to do so! They make for effortless, beautiful projects! Thanks again for stopping by! Have a wonderful day, and don’t forget to stay awesome, friend!

Just Because Butterflies

Hello Friends, and thanks for joining me! I could not wait to get my hands on the newest Pinkfresh Studio washi tapes! They were delivered a couple of days ago, and I immediately started creating with them! For this card, I’ll be combining my two favorite companies, Pinkfresh and Simon Says Stamp. So, let’s get in to the details, shall we?

Main Products:

I began this project by adhering the washi tape to panels of Neenah 110lb cardstock. I’m using the PFS Fluttering Butterflies and the PFS Vines and Roses washi tape, along with the coordinating dies. Once all of the pieces were cut, I began on the rest of the card.

I used the PFS Sparkling Diamond to cut a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock, and did some light ink blending using PFS Ballet Slipper ink. I also used the SSS Stitched Squares to cut some frames for interest. The squares were adhered to the ink blended panel using SSS 3D Foam Strips, and I then played around with the placement of the flowers to decide on the look of the card.

Every floral needs additional leaves in my opinion, so I used the SSS Budding Branches for that. I began adhering the floral pieces using liquid glue, and adding the white leaves in between the layers. I did end up trimming off some of the white leaves, but reserved those for adding back in at the end.

The sentiment is from the Spellbinders A little Message Sentiments that was created using the BetterPress Letterpress System, along with black ink. I used the included coordinating die to cut several pieces and adhered all of those together for a stacked look. The butterfly was adhered to the frames, and I used PFS Gold Metallic Pearls to add to the “budding” portion of the branches. The whole panel was then adhered to the card base using SSS Dot Tape Runner to finish up.

That does it for this one! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope it inspires you to get crafty in your space! If you’ve never tried the PFS washi tapes, I highly encourage you to do so! They are so simple to work with, and the end result projects are so very beautiful and effortless! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day! Don’t forget to stay awesome!

Framed English Garden

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks so much for stopping by! I spent some time not too long ago playing with some PinkFresh Studio Washi Tapes, and today’s project is a product of that playtime! So, let’s run through the detail, shall we?

To begin, I adhered a portion of the PFS English Garden Washi Tape to a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock and used the coordinating die to trim those pieces out. I then used the PFS Sparkling Diamonds cover plate to cut another panel of Neenah to use for the background.

I also pulled out a scrap and used the PFS Stitched Scalloped Rectangles to cut one of the smaller rectangles from this set. I set all of these pieces aside while I worked on the sentiment, and for that I used the PFS Scripted Sentiments. I used gold hot foil to foil the sentiment and used the coordinating die to trim it out. I cut two additional sentiments and adhered those together to make it a bit more sturdy and to add more dimension.

To assemble the card, I adhered the frame to the background panel using foam tape, placing some of the washi tape pieces underneath it. I adhered the additional pieces atop the frame using liquid glue. I decided that it needed some additional leaves, so I used the PFS Leafy Branch and cut a few from Neenah and tucked those behind the flowers, securing with glue.

I adhered the sentiment, offset from the frame just a little bit, using a combination of glue and foam tape. The panel was then adhered to the card base before adding a few PFS Gold Metallic Pearls to finish up.

I really enjoy working with the PinkFresh Studio washi tapes, because beautiful cards come together so effortlessly! They have so many to choose from and each one is gorgeous in its own way! I hope you enjoyed this project, and I hope it inspires you to get crafty in your space. As always, have a wonderful day and don’t forget to stay awesome!

PinkFresh Studio Rainbow Floral Birthday

Hello Friends! I hope you’re having a wonderful day! Thanks so much for stopping by! I made today’s card a bit ago, but just haven’t gotten around to writing or posting it. To be honest, I’ve been kind of lazy and lacking in motivation. It happens to all of us .. I think! Anyhoo, this card is featuring the PFS Rainbow Floral Washi, and I just have to say that I’m in love with it! Let’s go through the deets!

I began by adhering the PFS Rainbow Floral Washi to a panel of Neenah Classic Crest 110lb cardstock and using the coordinating die to trim out all of the pieces. I actually made a few panels so that I had lots of pieces to work with.

The background texture of the card panel was made using the PFS Diagonal Stitched Plaid. I love using these types of plates on white, because it just adds the slightest bit of detail and interest without distracting from the focal point of the card.

I used the PFS Stitched Scallop Circle dies to cut two of those. One of the smaller and one of the larger circles. I glued the circles together and adhered them to the panel using foam tape. I then arranged some of the rainbow pieces around the circles using a combination of liquid glue and foam tape for support.

It needed some extra leaves, of course, so I cut a few using the PFS Leafy Branch die and tucked those under the edges securing with glue. I had previously made the sentiment using the PFS Perfect Sentiments Hot Foil Plate, along with Spellbinders Champagne foil. This sentiment is stacked three high for additional support. I glued the sentiment in the center of the smaller circle and added a few PFS Gold Metallic Pearls for good measure. Everything was then, of course, adhered to the card base.

These washi tapes make it so easy to create beautiful cards with minimal effort! If you haven’t tried them, I highly encourage you to do so. Thanks again for stopping by. Don’t forget to stay your awesome, wonderful self!

PinkFresh Studio Golden Sunflower Hello

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! I hope you’re having a great day! Today’s project is featuring the PinkFresh Studio Sunflowers Washi! I love all of the washi tapes that PFS has to offer, and this one is no different! They are just a great product for making quick, yet beautiful cards! Let’s run through the details shall we?

To begin, I rolled out a panel of PFS Sunflowers Washi Tape onto a panel of Neenah Classic Crest 110lb cardstock and ran that through the die cutting machine using the coordinating die. You end up with so many pieces of gorgeous flowers and leaves .. enough to make at least two cards worth!

For the background, I used the SSS Detail Pincushion Plate. I used the embossing mat and embossed the panel onto purple cardstock, and then die cut the panel from Neenah 110. I added some liquid glue to the back of the white panel and popped it right into place over the purple panel. It fits so nicely and looks like you spent a ton of time inlaying all the beautiful pieces.

I played around with the placement of the flowers and leaves and guess what, I determined that I needed some additional leaves! I’m not kidding, I think every card that I make needs additional leaves! Anyhoo, I used the PFS Leafy Branch die to cut some of those from gold cardstock.

The sentiment is from the PFS Perfect Sentiments product suite. In this case, I used the hot foil plate to foil the sentiments onto a panel of Neenah 110lb using Spellbinders Gold Foil, and used the coordinating die to trim them out. I did cut it two more additional times and adhered those together using liquid glue.

I began arranging and assembling the flowers and leaves using a combination of glue and foam tape for support, tucking leaves under as necessary. The sentiment was then glued atop the flowers and the whole panel was adhered to the card base using SSS Dot Tape Runner.

That finishes up this project! I hope you enjoyed it and I hope it inspires you to get crafty! If you haven’t tried any of the PinkFresh Studio washi tapes, I definitely recommend them! Have a wonderful day and don’t forget to stay awesome!

PinkFresh Studio Framed Sunflowers

Hello Friends and thanks for stopping by! I’m so glad that you joined me for my project today, which features the newly released Sunflowers Washi from PinkFresh Studio. I am in love with all of PinkFresh’s washi tapes! They make for such easy, yet beautiful projects! If you haven’t tried them, I highly recommend them! So, let’s go through the details for this project!

To begin, I rolled out the PFS Sunflowers Washi onto a panel of Neenah Classic Crest 110lb cardstock and ran it through to die cut it using the coordinating die. Once I had all of the pieces, I began working on the design of the card. I used the PFS Diagonal Stitched Plaid to cut a panel of Neenah 110lb, and I used the PFS Stitched Scallop Square to cut those from the same cardstock.

I did some light ink blending on the stitched plaid background using PFS Sunshine ink before adhering the stitched frames using foam tape. I set out to arrange the pieces of washi atop the frames to figure out the placement. Upon doing so, I decided that I needed some gold leaves, so I used the PFS Leafy Branch die to cut that from polished gold cardstock.

I arranged the flowers and leaves and adhered those using a combination of liquid glue and foam tape, tucking pieces under to fill in the gaps. Once everything was assembled, I adhered the sentiment, which is from the PFS Celebrating You product suite. I already had this sentiment made in my stash, but to make it, I used Spellbinders Champagne Foil to foil the thinking of you sentiment, and trimmed it using the coordinating die. I also cut it two additional times and glued all of those together. The sentiment was then adhered to my project using the same combination of glue and foam tape for support.

The panel was then attached to the card base using SSS Dot Tape Runner, and PFS Gold Metallic Pearls were added for that additional pop of bling!

That finishes up this project! I hope you enjoyed it and I hope it inspires you to get crafty in your space! Have yourself a wonderful day and don’t forget to stay awesome!

Pinkfresh studio great friend

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back to my blog! I hope you are doing well and having a beautiful day! Today’s project is featuring a favorite product of mine, PinkFresh Studio washi tape! I just can’t get enough! I recently HAD to order three more sets, including this one, Hydrangea and Rose! It’s just so beautiful! All of the washi sets are absolutely gorgeous, and really make for quick, easy and beautiful cards! So let’s get into the details!

I began this project by grabbing a piece of Fluid Hot Press Watercolor paper. This is just the paper that I have on hand. I did some very light ink smooshing using Distress Oxide Spray Spun Sugar, and set it aside to dry.

I went ahead and die cut both of the PinkFresh Stitched Scalloped Rectangles from Neenah Classic Crest 110lb cardstock. I separated the larger of the frames and adhered foam tape to the back of it, as well as, adhering some to the smaller frame. I had already gotten my PinkFresh Hydrangea and Rose washi tape ready to go. I usually do four or five sets at a time and put them all in a baggie so that they are ready when I want to use them. And to do this, I cut a sheet of Neenah 110lb in half lengthwise, adhere the washi and use the coordinating die to cut them.

I trimmed the watercolor panel just smaller than the larger frame and went ahead and adhered those together, and then I adhered the smaller frame in the center. I die cut the PinkFresh Leafy Branch from gold cardstock, because I love adding those extra pops of gold to bring out the gold from the washi tape. I also gold foiled the sentiment using the PinkFresh Perfect Sentiments Hot Foil Plate, along with the coordinating die. When cutting the sentiment, I also cut extra from additional cardstock for stacking purposes.

I adhered the pieces of the sentiment together using liquid glue and began playing around with the placement of everything. I glued the gold leaves first and then arranged everything else atop the leaves and frames using a combination of glue and foam tape. To finish up, I added some PinkFresh Gold Metallic Pearls and adhered everything to my card base, which is Neenah 110lb.

That finishes up this project for today! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope you’ll check out the PinkFresh Studio washi tapes. Very easy to use and oh so great for quick, yet beautiful cards! Have an awesome day and don’t forget to stay awesome!
