Good morning! Today is the blog hop to celebrate Pinkfresh Studio's May 2023 Stamp, Die, Stencil, and Hot Foil Release! You aren't going to want to miss a stop along the way - TONS of inspiration and prizes up for grabs! YAY! You can find links to all of the new release items I used on today's cards at the bottom of this post!
My first card uses one of my favorite sets from the new release!
The Pretty Blooms is such a lovely set - I used the hot foil plate with Satin Gold foil, and colored it in with corals and peach tones for the flowers, using dual tones. I love how it cuts with the coordinating die - and those open areas are such a lovely touch! It is also lovely just as a background - so I love the versatility. I added a reverse foiled sentiment with The Magic is in You Phrase hot foil die, and a secondary sentiment from Delicate Foliage. A few Pixie Dust Ombre Glitter Drops finish this one off! Here are lots of photos and close ups of this card:
Next up - I'm using a set that was actually my assigned set from last years Create and Connect event. This set is so versatile, that I couldn't resist making TWO more cards with it!
For this first card, I used super soft colors. I stamped in Warm Buff ink, then used soft greens, coral, and peach tones. It makes a super fun background, but using the coordinating dies gives you so many options to arrange everything. I used Slim Scallop Circles die backed with soft pink cardstock to create a slimline design, tucking in the elements in the circles. I added a sentiment from the set - using a Basic Banner to stamp part of the sentiment, and then finished off with some Peach Fuzz jewels. Here are more photos of this card:
And, as promised, here is the second card:
For this one, I used the EXACT same colors as the first one, I just stamped the outline in Detail Black at the end. I love the different look and effect it gives! I used the largest Shaker Heart die, cut from white cardstock, to arrange all of the florals. This built a fun heart shape design. I added a sentiment from Basic Banners: Celebrate, a background created with Floral Tiles coverplate, and a few Glitter Drops in Blossom, Champagne, and Leaf to finish it off. Here are more photos of this card as well:
And this next card - I almost turned into a shaker card, but ended up just making it a fun popped up window instead:
This card uses several new items - the Magic is in You stencil and die (those mushrooms are the CUTEST!!!), the Terrarium die (so unique and fun), and the Magic is in You Phrase hot foil and die set. I used fairly traditional colors to create this - and added a row of Ruby glitter drops in the top left corner, and a tiny bow from Wrap Around Elements to finish it off. Here are more detail photos:
And finally, this soft card using a new floral set.
For this card, I used the new Handpicked Flowers stamp, stencil, and die set. I used soft gray ink to stamp my outline, to give a no line effect. I created a window using Blanket Stitched Ovals, and a window using Ornate Banners. Another of those bows from Wrap Around Elements makes an appearance, and the sentiment from the set is stamped on a Basic Banner, and layered with another Basic Banner. A few Ombre Glitter Drops in Twilight and Magic Potion finish this card off!
