PinkFresh Studio

Made in May Card 14

Hello everyone!!

It’s been a busy bank holiday Monday for me – mainly dodging rain showers to cut my lawn! Fortunately I just managed to squeeze in time for my entry into the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

I used a few images that I had already created during earlier crafty sessions – more images from Pinkfresh Studio’s beautiful Sakura stamp set that I used last month and that woodslice is by Stampin’ Up.

The fabulous embossing folder is the Rosette Burst by Spellbinders and the sentiment is by Sugar Pea Designs.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!!

Last year, I rediscovered Pinkfresh Studio products when I attended one of their online cardmaking events and I’ve been growing my collection of their product suites ever since.

Their older products are quite difficult to get hold of in the UK and I know I missed out on a lot of beautiful releases. Happily I was able to get hold of the stunning Breezy Blossoms cling stamp/stencil/die suite. The red rubber stamps emboss beautifully and are a joy to colour!

For today’s card I used the individual images to create a little wreath which actually serves as a frame for the sentiment that is from a set I received for one of their events last year. So I decided I could enter this into the current Pinkfresh Studio monthly challenge which has ‘Frame it Up’ as a theme.

Hello everyone!!

Today I’m playing along with the current Pinkfresh Studio monthly challenge which has ‘Frame it Up’ as a theme.

I recently uncovered a couple of older Pinkfresh dies that I bought a few years ago so paired one with vellum die cuts from the Flowers for the Soul and Blissful Butterflies product suites. I love using the vellum product suites – so pretty with the gold accents.

The sentiment is by Memory Box.

Best wishes with Butterfly Bliss

Hello everyone!!

After thinking I wouldn’t play along with the Freshly Made Sketches challenge this week, inspiration struck so here I am!

I knew I wanted to create something a bit different, so instead of two rectangular panels, I cut two flowery shapes which I edged with ink and dry embossed with a Simon Says Stamp folder called Jubilee.

The images are from the new Pinkfresh Studio Butterfly Bliss product suite and coloured using my older Altenew inks.

The sentiment is by the Ton Stamps.

Sakura Hello

Hi there!

Today I’m playing along with this month’s  Pinkfresh Studio challenge which has the optional theme and colour combo. I opted to use the theme which is ‘Floral Frenzy’ – perfect for most Pinkfresh designs!

Today I’m using the Sakura product suite that I picked up from Dies to Die for over Easter. I was fortunate to get the last set as this was released a year ago now – before I really discovered Pinkfresh. I didn’t get the Washi so will have to get that from another store at some point.

I really think this is my favourite Pinkfresh product suite so far – the stamps stamp beautifully with a lovely thin outline – almost like their red rubber cling stamps and the images are so easy to colour with the stencils. I’ve gone with the traditional combo for today’s card but I can’t wait to colour this in different colours – so much fun!

To complete my card I added a lacy vellum die cut, a few gold dots and a sentiment by Creative Expressions.

Thanks for stopping by!

Pretty Blooms

Hi there!

There’s a really interesting sketch for this week’s challenge at Freshly Made Sketches. At first I thought I may pass on entering this week because nothing sprung to mind immediately. But as is so often the way with crafting, I suddenly had an idea!

I realised that elements from the Pinkfresh Studios Pretty Blooms washi product suite by that I received in the February Create & Connect event kit would work very well. I also used a frame and sentiment stamps from the event kit.

The gold element is a Paper Rose Studio Honeysuckle die cut – I thought the shape tied in nicely with the sprigs on the washi.

Thanks for stopping by!
