Waffle Flower Snow Flake Cluster card

 

For this card, I used a new die from Waffle Flower called Snowflake Cluster. The die itself cut beautifully and I used the arrangement of the snowflakes as a perfect backdrop for the verse. I did cut one of the snowflakes away from the cluster to use later. The bg was made with Distress Oxide inks and splattered with Caribbean Blue Tattered Angels spray to add dimension and shimmer. Love all of the sparkle and shine. I added the Pinkfresh Studio Birthday Balloon Washi tape, die cut, and stamp set to finish the winter birthday theme.

WOW! Embossing with Pinkfresh Studio Geo Leaf Die

My Favorite Color!!

                                                          Here are all the products I used!

I wanted to play along with the newest WOW! March challenge and thought of making something with a cover die instead of an embossing folder as Handmade by Tasha did on her Youtube video. For this lovely card, I used my Pinkfresh Studio Geo Leaf Background Cover Die paired with an older set called Pinkfresh Studio Bloom. 

Directions: Die cut the cover from Neenah cardstock using the above die and then inked over the whole front with a clear embossing pad. I then sprinkled the WOW Iris embossing powder over the top holding the die cut piece with cotton pliers. I heat embossed after placing it on a cork trivet until the entire cover melted. I did add more embossing and heated again so as to hide where the pliers had held it to cover that spot and get a glossier coverage. It was magical watching the heat process progress across the beautiful front! I took my Bloom stamp which has 2 floral images and the Thank you sentiment and stamped them on a light pink-lavender cardstock using my MISTI tool. After using the same steps, they were also embossed. I then fussy cut them. At this point, I happen to notice I had a dark smoky purple seam binding and since it looked more in contrast with the front color and it gave even better texture contrast to the embossing, I ended up using it instead of the 2nd floral image as planned. A happy coincidence! I popped up both pieces and glued the cover down on another Neenah handmade card front to finish. I put my lovely Lady Head vase next to the card to take the pic, seeing that they matched beautifully! My favorite color is lavender if you haven't noticed.

Pinkfresh Studio Skating Bunny Christmas tag

 This tag like the last ones was made to play along with Tracey McNeely's 25 days of Christmas tags 2020. This is for Day 12 using the Pinkfresh Studio Skating Bunnies stamp and die set. The Snowflakes are from Creek Bank Creations and the background die is Spellbinder's inner oval of Chantilly Paper Lace. I backed it with a center piece of white cardstock to keep the pieces together. This was inspired from Carol Mayne's blog.
