Hi everyone! Hope your week is going GREAT so far! Guess what? It's still hot here! LOL! I've been staying inside and laying low.... Like a cat laying on the hardwood floor!! Soon it will be August, and then it will be FALL!! I can't wait! Our first fall out of lockdown and I am excited to get out do some fun seasonal things! Thank you for all the nice comments and stories on my last post! It was so fun to read about your favorite places!!
Today is the date for the beautiful brand new July new release from Pinkfresh Studio! Another gorgeous release, with touches of pretty Fall stamps, dies and stencils... We are doing a big fun HUGE blog hop today and I can't wait to share some projects with you. The new release is available now. The blog hop link list is at the very bottom of my post! Enjoy the hop - thanks for stopping by!
My first card features the new Fall Foliage Stencils and Dies and the new Gazebo Die! OOOH LA LA! The die set up for this is genius!! You stencil an entire panel of the wonderful leaves, then die cut them all out at ONCE! One bit die does all the leaves together. Pinkfresh is always innovative and creative. My finished card is a white A2 card base, layered with white cardstock and vellum.... I love to pop a little teal with my fall colors! Supplies are at listed at the bottom of my post!
My sentiment was made using the Perfect Sentiments Hot Foil Plate and dies... I used gold to accent my card - both by using gold paint splatters and by making my sentiment in gold foiling... My stenciling was done with warm tones of Distress Inks and blender brushes.
I die cut the Gazebo twice from dark brown woodgrain cardstock and glued them together. I layered some vellum around my card and glued the gazebo onto the front. The die cut background was made with the pretty Sparkling Diamonds Coverplate! Just a hint of texture and interest. I also layered in some vellum leaf clusters.
I added some brown gems as accents onto the finished card. Here's a close up of the leaves.
My second card today features the brand new Inky Floral Stencils and Stamps! A pretty Summer Floral with a big background stamp and stencils to fill it in. It's very modern and classic at the same time. I think this suite would be beautiful for weddings, showers and other girlie cards. My finished card is an A2 white card base, layered with the stenciled panel, a wrap of aqua, and some circles.
After I stenciled the panel, I splattered on some white paint over the florals. I used the Pinkfresh Studio Ink Cubes to do the stenciling. I used my MISTI to stamp the big background stamp. I die cut the pretty Intricate Stitched Ovals background die with aqua cardstock to make a wrap of color around the top panel.
For the sentiment, I die cut two circles (vellum and white cardstock). I inked some yellow ink on the top circle and then stamped the sentiment in rich black ink. I added black jewels also.
Thank you so much for joining me today on this fun blog hop day!

Love these pretty cards.

You might have given me the answer to a speed bump I hit on my latest card. I have been fiddling with a circle on a band for my sentiment but just not loving anything that I did. Vellum might be the answer.

The gazebo is a fun addition to
our gardening dies. The flowers
around the gazebo are bright
and colorful. Love the
stenciling on the other card.

Hi, Wanda - Somehow I missed your last post, so I went back and read it as well as this one about Pinkfresh. You do such amazing work!
Your PF cards are beyond gorgeous! I especially love the gazebo one! The no-line leaves look like a print-shop masterpiece. You're phenomenal and your work always makes me happy. Love your cards!

I saw the sneak peek on Instagram and could only hope it was too gorgeous... it is for sure! Love the gazebo and the beautiful fall foliage for sure. I adore the second and my grandson is getting married in September. I have a bridal shower coming up on Aug. 20th. This card would be perfect. One more pleasant day and then Michigan is looking forward to some triple digit days next week. UGH!!
