Good morning! Dropping by today to share a card I made yesterday for Pinkfresh Studio's Facebook Live. I used a die from the recent Essentials Release - and paired it up with a couple items from previous releases. It was fun layering everything together for this card! You can watch the replay HERE if you want to see more details.
I am absolutely in LOVE with the new Garden Wreath die set - I hadn't had much opportunity to use it before it went out of stock, so I was excited to see that there were some in stock, and couldn't wait to use it for a live video. I die cut it from various colors of Concord and 9th Cardstock - cut all the leaves out with 3 different shades of green, and the flowers out with two shades of coral. I also cut the wreath 2 times from white cardstock, and used that as the base to layer all the greenery on.
Once the wreath was assembled, I added some soft stenciling to the square card base using Coral Reef and Fresh Pear ink over the two layers of Diamond Plaid layering stencil at the same time. Just a soft touch of color for the background that was pretty fun, but not overwhelming.
Added a frame using Stitched Scallop Squares - if you watched the live, you might know that I was undecided on if I was going to use both parts of the colored frame - or just leave the outside portion white. When the live finished, I ended up adding the darker frame, and I really like it, so I'm glad I went that way! Added some Peach Fuzz jewels sprinkled around, as well as in the centers of the flowers on the wreath.
I also had planned to leave it without a sentiment, but I also decided after the live that this hot foiled sentiment from Perfect Sentiments was a perfect addition, so I added it on as well. I think that was exactly what it needed to finish it off!
