Happy Monday, Crafty Friends!
Today we wish Pinkfresh Studio a Happy 7th Birthday! Pinkfresh Studio has spent the last seven years spreading joy through their love of paper crafting with this amazing community. And today's celebration is a continuation of sharing joy featuring a PRIZE HUNT with seven amazing crafty goodies up for grab! So get ready to have a little fun by visiting Pinkfresh Studio's Blogs, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube channel for your chance to win a little crafty awesomeness.
To create this card, I used the Fancy Floral Print layering stencils with Tidal Pool, Aquamarine, Clementine, Peach Fuzz, Persimmon, and Sweet Mustard dye inks. To achieve the texture for the leaves, I used Deco Foil Pearl Metallix Paste and blended this with Tidal Pool ink to create a creamy paste, which I applied to stencil number 5. I set the panel aside to dry and then stamped the beautiful floral from the Thankful for Friends set. I colored the image with my Copic markers and then layered the coloring with colored pencils to create my shading. I diecut a circle into my now dry panel and then added a layer for vellum to mute the background before adhering my floral bouquet. A heat embossed sentiment from the Celebrate Today stamp sent completes this card.

Happy Sunday, Crafty Friends!
Today, I am sharing a card project for The Flower Challenge. This month's card challenge is pretty pastels. With spring in the air, this is a perfect time to head into your craft room and start playing with your favorite floral stamps and dies.
To create this card, I used Altenew's Beautiful Day stamp and die set. I inked the flowers using Catherine Pooler's lovely purples, and Altenew's green palette for the leaves. I wanted to add some visual interest to the background and achieved this by using Altenew's retired Dot Art stamp. I heat embossed the leaves with gold embossing powder and added a bit of color with a deeper purple inked background. A simple sentiment completes this card.
Thank you for stopping by. For more inspiration, visit The Flower Challenge Blog. We are looking forward to seeing what you create!

Happy Friday, Crafty Friends!
I am popping in to share today's card for Pinkfresh Studio's Instagram Hop.
This card features the Floral Focus cling stamp paired with Heather's Lowercase and the Thin Words: Everyday Script dies. I created a subtle eclipse effect with the alphabet dies for my "Paper Hugs" sentiment. By using the coordinating stencils I was able to quickly add a touch of color to this happy card.

Pinkfresh Studio| March Release Cling Stamp, Stencil, Die and Hot Foil Release
Happy Monday, Crafty Friends!
The wait is over!! Pinkfresh Studio's March Release is HERE!!! This release is bursting with crafty goodies from the stamps, dies, and stencils to the new hot foil stamps! Oh yes, it's time to get crafty!
The Joyful Peonies is a versatile collection with its coordinating stamp, die, stencil, and hot foil stamp. By using the same supplies, but changing the color palette, I was able to create two similar, but very different cards to showcase the Joyful Peonies. To create my first card, I did a no-line coloring technique with the Joyful Peonies stamp in shades of pale red in the Copic marker family. I then added highlights and shading with my colored pencils. I love pairing texture with florals, so after inking the background panel with Peach Fuzz, Ocean, and Tidal Pond inks, I added a few white inky splatters. I then added vellum leaves to the floral arrangement with the Curvy Leaves die. A foil embossed sentiment using the new Celebrate hot foil stamp completes this card
My second card features similar elements like the Joyful Peonies and Curvy Leaves. However, this time I decided to stretch my dies by creating a smaller lattice focal point with the Simply Diamonds die. I started by creating a frame and then gluing it to the Simply Diamonds diecut. Once I had the area I wanted to keep, I cut off the excess with my trimmer. Viola! I love a punch of color with black and white, so I stamped an A2 panel with the Bougainvillea Print stamp, which is gorgeous by the way, and added my peony bouquet. A simple sentiment from the Flower Garden stamp set completes this card.
As one of my favorite crafters is fond of saying in her videos, "Similar, but different." Thank you for stopping by and spending time with me. There is more crafty inspiration with the Pinkfresh Creative Team, so please take a moment to continue enjoying the amazing design team lineup and creative inspiration.

Hello, Crafty Friends!
It is that time again...time for a Scrapbook.com LIVE (HERE)! Today's LIVE features the Ink Pad Storage Bundle.
If you are like me, you have probably been crafting for a while and have ink pad storage solutions that work for you and your space. My craft space is not very large, so finding functional, affordable, and aesthetically pleasing pieces is important to me. So maybe it's time to think outside the box.
I store my ink pad storage unit on a shelf above my Pops of Color. This way I can see the cards my sweet crafty friends have sent me. Thank you for stopping by! And don't forget to check out the Scrapboo.com LIVE (HERE).
Happy Crafting!
