I  love the effect of partially colored images on this card. Die-cut the panel using the Diagonal Stitched Rectangle die. Sponge the ink to the corners of the panel. Flick some ink to it.

Pinkfresh Studio - Creating Cards On Dark Backgrounds

 Hello everyone! I am on the Pinkfresh Studio card blog with two cards featuring the Vines and Roses product suite. I normally create pastel, vibrant cards but the dark backgrounds have their own elegance, so I decided to share two card designs.

I used various colors of stripes to add pops of color to this design.

I started by using the Dotted Petals press plate, inked it with Regal Kiss ink and took the impression using the Betterpress Letterpress system. Next, I die-cut this piece using the Notched Corner Frames dies. Adhere the stripes diagonally.

Stamp the images using Vines and Roses stamp onto vellum using versamark ink, sprinkle white embossing powder and heat set. Die-cut using Vines and Roses die.


Add color to some of the leaves and flower using copic markers and create a cluster. Stamp the sentiment using Detail Black ink, die-cut.

Stack three more die-cut for some dimension. To finish, add some Enchanted Forest Glitter Drops.

For the next card I used the Vines and Roses washi tape. I love the rainbow color effect. 

Adhere the washi to a white card, die-cut using the coordinating dies.

 

Die-cut a vellum label using the Basic Label Frames die set. Adhere the stamped sentiment to it using 3d foam and now adhere the vellum to the panel.



This is such an easy card to make but the gold foiling on washi and the details make it look so elegant.

Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day.

Pinkfresh Studio - Mini Slimline Shaker Card

 Hello everyone! I am on the Pinkfresh Studio blog today with a mini slimline shaker card featuring the beautiful Sakura Stamps, Dies and Stencils. This bundle also comes with beautiful washi, which helps create cards in no time.

To start, I sponged a white panel from top and bottom using the Summer Shower and Seaside inks. Dab seaside ink onto mat and with a wet brush flick some splatters, then add splatters using the White ink. Die-cut this panel using the Mini Slimline Essential Bundle. Next, die-cut a circle from this piece. Adhere this circle piece to the white cardbase.

Stamp the images using the Detail Black ink. Sponge the images using (Sparkling Rose, Raspberry Bliss, Mulberry Blush, Grassy Knoll, Olive, Spanish Moss) inks through the stencils. Die-cut using the dies.

Stamp the sentiment and die-cut it. Adhere a piece of acetate behind the inked panel. Add 3 d foam all around the circle, add some Glitter Drops: Blush and Clear with Gold Dust Gems. Add another piece of acetate to close the shaker window. Adhere this layer to the card.

Using liquid adhesive, insert in the sentiment into the opening. Create the floral cluster as per the liking by adding some parts of the extra images. Adhere these to the card and the shaker card is ready.

Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day!
