Beyond Happy for You

 Hey there!

Excited to share a new card that was inspired by several awesome challenges:

Pinkfresh Studio January 2024 challenge: I chose April / Flowers challenge 

The Daring Cardmakers challenge: Just Peachy 

Inkspirational challenge #307: Stencils

Time Out challenge #254: New

 

And here's my card...

I was excited to try out my new Pinkfresh Studio 'Nothing But the Best' stamp/layering stencils/die products, and have also been eager to make a card using Pantone's color of the year, Peach Fuzz.

I started by stamping the floral image in black, then ink blended using the layering stencils, choosing to ink blend the flowers in monochromatic peach fuzz with limoncello centers, and thought the mint/meadow/emerald city color blend would complement the peach flowers. 

I die cut the diagonal stitched circle and very lightly ink blended the background in peach fuzz, then die cut a diagonal stitched circle frame and ink blended in peach fuzz.

I embossed an A2 panel with a woodgrain embossing plate then die cut using Pinkfresh simply diamonds die. I die cut another A2 panel with Pinkfresh hexagon tile coverplate and ink splattered it with dried marigold distress oxide ink.

I then adhered all of the card layers, adhered the floral image with foam tape, stamped and die cut the sentiment and adhered it with foam tape. I die cut a few additional pieces of Alex Syberia greenery and adhered to the card.

Lastly I embellished the flower centers with some flat sequins.

I really enjoyed the creative process with this card!! Supply List below...

Thanks so much for stopping by today!!
