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.

ReplyDeleteHi, Keia - Knockouts, both! I love 'em!! I think the "one of a kind" is super-cool because it's like the plain Jane background of b/w is suddenly alive with color superimposed on top. I also love how you offset the letters to have a thin black sliver showing.
ReplyDeleteFabulous!!
