Hello crafty people! How was your weekend? I hope it was excellent! We had our first sunshine of the year this weekend and it was great! Felt good to see that big old bright blue sky. Whew! I got in some crafty time, some football time and some church time so it was a great weekend here! Today is a huge blog hop to celebrate a gorgeous new release from Pinkfresh Studio! More beautiful florals and innovative dies, more hot foil plates, more stencils! More awesomeness from one of my favorite companies! There is supply information, prize information and the list for the hop participants at the bottom of my post. Let's take a look at my card for today!
My card features the brand new Wonderful In Every Way stamp/die/hot foil/stencil combo and the brand new Wonderful Sentiments stamp/die/hot foil combo. Gosh, sooooo pretty! My finished card is an A2 card base in white. I layered purple and then a white layer die cut with a pretty cover plate.... and more! The pretty floral spray is the star of the card though!
I used the Sparkling Diamonds background die to make the pattern on the white layer. I used Inverted Circles to make a purple circle to ground the flowers and there is vellum tucked behind the purple circle. Here's a side view so you can see the construction and layers.
Here's a close up of the images and the background...
I thought a pretty vellum butterfly would be nice with these flowers! I used the hot foil plates and gold foil to make all my elements: the butterfly, the flowers and the sentiment. I used the matching dies for each piece to cut them all out. I am kind of obsessed with gold foiling!! I used watercolor paper (hot press/smooth) for the flowers and sentiment. It gives such a nice look.
I feel like even the leftovers are pretty when you do hot foiling! I used the Glimmer System and gold foil for this project.
To color in my images I used Pinkfresh ink cubes and my set of small blender brushes along with the matching stencils. The flowers have three layering stencils and the leaves have two layering stencils. SO easy to get a beautiful result.
I knew I wanted to layer my flowers so I hand cut out the pieces of a second, identical, floral spray. Here are all my pieces on my craft table.
Isn't this soo sooo sooooo pretty??
For the sentiment I die cut a second layer to make it thicker.... I used hot foil and the matching die with those new sentiment. I LOVE this font!!
To finish off my card, I splattered gold paint onto the florals... And I used some of the new Glitter Drops in Gold. OHH LA LA! These glitter drops are wonderful!!! I'm going to be using these a lot!! To assemble my card, I used foam tape to 'pop up' the second flower, directly on top of the first one. This is such an elegant technique and can bring your card to the next level. So much texture and dimension...
That's it for my card for today! If you're new here, from the blog hop, welcome! Thank you for stopping by to spend part of your day with me.
