Pinkfresh Studio / Holiday Stamp & Die Release Blog Hop

Skiing By 

Hello and Welcome to the Pinkfresh Studio Holiday Stamp & Die Release!  I am excited to share a few projects with you using the new release.



My first card uses Skiing By.......OMG......this set is so adorable!  

I created hills and mountains with the coordinating dies.  Look at those skiers!!!  Each one required very little coloring.  Each one cut out with coordinating dies.  I added glitter to the snow banks and added my images with foam adhesive.

Cozy Christmas

My second card uses a really cool stamp called Cozy Christmas Wishes Stamp.

You can do so many things with this one but I decided to go RETRO.  Using 1/2 inch strips of red, pink, green, turquoise, and blue cardstock, I added them to a notecard with adhesive.  To make sure I stamped my image crisp, I used a Misti and embossing buddy tool.  I did stamp the image twice with Versamark to get a good impression.  After adding white embossing powder and embossing, my card was finished!

STAMPtember with Avery Elle

Merry Wreath2

It's time for the reveal of the STAMPtember set from Avery Elle!

Merry Wreath is the next collaboration set for STAMPtember!

My wreath was stamped in various pigment inks from Avery Elle:  Cherry, Celery, Jungle, and Truffle.  Once my wreath was all stamped, I trimmed the panel on the top and bottom which left room for some added score details and perforations!  After stamping the sentiment in bold black ink, Crystal Stickles were added to all the berries.

Amy_Spooky2 

Welcome to Day 2 of the Lil' Inker Designs September Release!  
This release has some new spooky dies for Halloween......are you ready?  The new release is now available and can be found HERE!!!



I had fun creating this card using new and old!  I used the new Spooky Word Die Large and die cut 3 times out of black cardstock which were then layered together for some faux chipboard.  I added 2 googly eyes to the word.....these fit perfectly!  My Spooky word was layered over strips of colored cardstock in the colors of candy corn.  I added a Spooky Tree Die along with some Stitched Ghosts that had eyes hand drawn onto them.

STAMPtember with Hero Arts

Real Flowers Vintage2

It's time for the reveal of the STAMPtember set from Hero Arts!



Hero Arts


Real Flowers Vintage is the latest STAMPtember collaboration set.  

This background was created by ink blending Fossilized Amber, Worn Lipstick, and Fired Brick Distress Oxide inks onto Bristol Smooth cardstock.  Such a nice warm fall color palette.  Once the panel was trimmed down, the silhouette images from Real Flowers Vintage were stamped in Versafine Clair Nocturne ink.  This panel was added with a foam panel behind and the whole card was spritzed with Sheer Shimmer Spritz Sparkle.

Amy_Spooky Script Word Die2

Welcome to Day 1 of the Lil' Inker Designs September Release!  
This release has some new spooky dies for Halloween......are you ready?  The new release is now available and can be found HERE!!!



I used a previously stamped Cozy Plaid background that was done on an olive cardstock.  To a standard circle, I darkened the edges with Fossilized Amber Distress Ink with my blending brush and added a stamped sentiment from Boo & Faces 2 Stamps.  To add that sparkle, I die cut the new Spooky Script Word Die and the bat from Bats & Broomsticks Dies out of black fine glitter cardstock.

STAMPtember with SugarPea Designs

Nordic Village2

It's time for the reveal of the STAMPtember set from SugarPea Designs!



Nordic Village is the latest STAMPtember collaboration set.  With it's coordinating dies, this set is a must have for quick and easy cards.

I created a background using the new Geo Snowflake Stencil (link to shop SugarPea Designs is above!).  This is a fabulous stencil and can be used for far more than just holiday cards!  I layered a circle cutout panel over with some glittery white hills of snow.  I tucked my black and white houses and trees into the snowbanks.  A tiny bit of blue shadowing in the windows and grey shadowing for the houses is all this needs!

Crafty Friends Blog Hop featuring Hero Arts

Hero Arts

Welcome!  
I’m so glad to introduce to you the Crafty Friends Blog Hop! We’re a group of amazing stampers that share similar paths…and we want to share our crafty projects with you!    We’ll be hopping each month featuring a specific company or brand…and this month’s favorite is Hero Arts!  I have been fortunate to play along every month with their My Monthly Hero kits.  



Using the Color Layering For You Flowers, I stamped them in multiple colors of ink and die cut.  I arranged them onto a white panel that was ink blended with Scattered Straw and Mustard Seed Distress Inks.  Using Press 'n Seal, I picked up my arrangement and set aside.  The ink blended panel was die cut using the Abstract Texture Die.  Everything was adhered including a sentiment from the Hello Stamp and Cut.

Hello!  Welcome to the Hello Bluebird Fall Release Day!!!  All new products shown will be available starting tonight, September 13 at 7pm MST.  

I hope you have joined me over on Instagram for all the sneak peeks this week!  This release is so adorable!


I am finishing Release Week with a harvest card.....Wishing you a Season of Blessings.  Being from Kansas, I fell in love with this fall arrangement in Fall Banner Buddies.

I focused my card on the gorgeous colors of fall and paired them with the Country Gingham Background, a simple sentiment, and some twine.
