Hello! Today I am part of a fun Instagram hop to celebrate the new Pinkfresh Studio "Happiness" Release. There are giveaways up for grabs, so hop on over to check that out if you haven't yet! I have had so much fun creating with this release - yesterday was the blog hop, and I shared a few cards for that! Today I'm sharing a a fun card I created on YouTube Live last week with Lea Lawson using similar sets but in slightly different ways! You can watch that video HERE if you want to see more details!
Here is the replay of the live video if you'd like to watch it here:
I used a technique from the amazing Carissa Wiley to do letterpress on colored cardstock, tucking a piece of the cotton betterpress cardstock under the colored cardstock, so I was able to press the Beautiful Branch press plate in pink on pink cardstock for a tone on tone effect. SOOO fun! I then did the same thing to use normal cardstock for the Twist Pattern press plate. I also hot foiled the florals using the same press plate, and then ink blended in two tones for some interest and variation on the designs. I popped up the twist pattern with foam, then added the florals over the top, trimming off the edges, and tucking the leftover pieces in various places on the card front as well. Finished off with a sentiment from the coordinating stamp set, and a few tiny Clear Drops: Ice on some of the flower centers! Here are more photos of this finished card:
