Happy Release Day Crafters! Today, Pinkfresh Studio is celebrating their JUNE-2021 Release with a fabulous blog hop. So therefore, if you’re hopping along with us, welcome as you should have arrived here from Wanda’s Blog but, if this is your starting point, I’d like to invite you to start from → Pinkfresh ‘Blog or by clicking the direct link provided below which will take you directly to the full list for this wonderful hop.
With that being said, today I’d like to start by sharing with you a set of clean and simple, yet very “Sophisticated” handmade inspiration cards made using the just released Hydrangea and Rose Stamp Set, Hydrangea and Rose Die, Hydrangea and Rose Washi-tape, Hugs and Good Vibes Hot Foil Plate, Hugs and Good Vibes Die, and Metallic Pearls -Gold along with them I’m also using Essentials Blanket Stitched Oval Die Set and Curvy Leaves Die Set. So, without further ado let me share how-to-make them ↓
Therefore, I started off by unrolling the Hydrangea and Rose Washi-tape and then, I went ahead to stick the backing of it to a large piece of white cardstock in the same exact way as I had done it before with previous Pinkfresh Studio Washi-tape Rolls. Next, after I had finished that step, I went ahead to line up Hydrangea and Rose Die over the card panel which by the way happens to be its coordinating die. Thus, as soon as I had them both lined up, I went ahead to run them through my Platinum 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine to die-cut the different floral pieces of washi out of the card panel.
Once, I had finished die-cutting all floral pieces out of the card panel, I went ahead to set them off aside while I gone ahead to create the detailed stitched white card background panel so to do that, I started off by lining up over an A2 size white card panel the largest die from Essentials Blanket Stitched Oval Die Set and then, I went ahead to run them through the die-cut machine. Next, I went ahead to separate the die-cutting inner and outer panel and then, I quickly went ahead to line up over the inner die-cutting panel the smaller die from the set to die-cut the smaller oval panel out of it creating that way a continuous dimensional layering panel.
Lastly, after I had finished die-cutting all pieces, I started the layering for the card so to do that, I went ahead trim off the edges of the largest panel a bit smaller than the card base using my Tim Holtz - 8.5 Inch Comfort Paper Trimmer and then, I proceeded to adhere it down with double-sided adhesive to an A2 top folding white card base. Next, I adhered square foam adhesives to the backing of the middle oval and then, I went ahead to inlay it to the card. Then, right after that I went ahead to add double-sided craft foam to the backing of the smaller die-cutting oval and then, I inlaid it to the card creating that way a very dimensional white on white blanket-stitched card panel. Last but not least, I proceeded tom mount over with square foam adhesives the largest die-cutting floral cluster in the middle of the card and then, I also tucked in smaller die-cutting flowers along with some leaves which I’ve had previously die-cut out of translucent vellum using one of the dies from Curvy Leaves Die Set. Finally, to finish the card off, I mounted a stamped and heat embossing sentiment which, I’ve had previously created over a piece of white cardstock using one of the sentiments from Hydrangea and Rose Stamp Set and then, I added a touch of shine by gluing down here in there with Bearly Art Mini Precision Craft Glue some of the newest Metallic Pearls -Gold.
In the collage above you can see how versatile the die-cutting floral clusters are from the beautiful Hydrangea and Rose Washi-tape design, as you can use the smaller pieces to create a floral frame as well. Therefore, to create the card above, I decided to pair foiling accent from the washi along with Hugs and Good Vibes Hot Foil Plate and Glimmer Hot Foil System Platform, Glimmer Hot Foil Roll - Polished Brass and Platinum 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine as well for the foil stamping process. And, with that said, I hope this this set of clean and simple, yet very “Sophisticated” handmade inspiration cards inspire you to give this sets a try!
