Pinkfresh love continues...

Hi Friends,

Once again, I am here to share the cards I made using few Pinkfresh studio stamps. The soft, delicate and whimsical feel of it is something new for me to work with. I am really enjoying playing with them.


I used Itty Bitty elements stamp set for this card. Beautiful set with bunch of different themed images to create cards for various occasions. I have used SSS - irregular dots stencil with oxides to make various circles. Images are stamped using black archival ink and colored with tombow markers. Sentiment is from Jane's Doodles set and flower branch die is from lawn fawn.


This is a retired set but I am lucky to get it before it was gone. Sentiment is from their new release
Word Series : Believe set. If you are as crazy for good sentiments as I am, You gotta have them all.






This one again is a retired set but man...how I love it!

Hope you enjoyed the post and feeling inspired. 
You can expect few more posts in future as I have quite a few sets on my wish-list.
Thank you for being here.
Hugs!

Cactus




This is the card I made for Jane's Doodles blog! I love this stamp set and I am looking for more sentiments to go with these beautiful plants. Coloring succulents is always fun as every time you can try some new combinations. I stamped and colored images on little larger that a2 size and cropped to desired smaller size. Images are colored using copics.

Altenew 3D peony dream dies

Hello Friends,

Today, I am sharing some fun ways to use Altenew 3D peony dream dies. I was reluctant buying it because of its very high price but couldn't resist much and got one anyway! I tried something fun, other than regular die cutting too. let's start with the obvious one.


I cut multiple layers in different colors and build the flowers. I use altenew's Sohcahtoa stamp set to make my background. It is quite flexible die set. you can use all or some layers to build the flowers. In pink flower i cut the petals to separate them and even shaped them to make it dimensional.





Now comes the fun experiment. I diecut smaller flower and the inner layer from acetate and used them as stencils to build flowers.



I used various oxides and distress inks for both layers. Isn't that fun? 

For the third card, i even used third layer stencil to emboss it.



I have used Altenew's golden peach and ranger's platinum embossing powder to emboss the third outlined layer. 
Check the close up below. It looks gorgeous in person.



I hope you feel inspired to stretch your supply & new ways to use them.

Thanks for spending some time with me here. Happy crafting!
