PFS Heat Embossed Dragonfly

Posted on by Liz

There is an Instagram happening over the weekend and I got to play with some of Wow!’s great embossing powders together with Picket Fence Studios (all links are affiliate links) products. I opted for cutting out the Big Beautiful Dragonfly. I covered it in Wow!’s Embossing Pad and then used the Grape Fizz from the Twinly Fizz Wow! Trio. The original die was cut out in white and this shows just how well the coverage is. I love it!

To make it stand out, I’ve used the A2 Pierced Blanket Cover Plate die and used some darker blue card stock. The sentiment is from the Early Tulips stamp set and it is embossed with Wow!’s Polished Silver. It is super shiny and looks great! I’ve used sequins from the following three mixes: Black Tie Affair, Rainbow and A Classic Christmas.

PFS Rum Calling – new release

Posted on by Liz

It is new release day at Picket Fence Studios (this and following links are affiliate links) and oh my is it a fun one! It has loads of fun drink dies to make shaker cards from and so many great sequin mixes! It was difficult to choose which ones to combine for sure! For my release day post I’m going to share my personal favourite of my cards for this release.

I have played with dies and glaze to create this fun and colourful card. I used three different glazes to create the background, Pink Magnolia Luxe, Aztec Sunflowers Luxe and Lime Zinnia. I then glued together loads of cut outs of the Martini Shaker die and used the Peach Bellini embellishment jar inside the shaker. To finish off I used the Make it Dirty stamp and coordinating die set.

Here is another photo, you can see that the glass is raised properly. I cut out several pieces to layer them, eight, I think!

Here is a list of all the products I used:

Martini Shaker die
Make it Dirty
Make it Dirty coordinating die set
Peach Bellini embellishment jar
Old: Paper Glaze Luxe Pink Magnolia
Old: Paper Glaze Lime Zinnia
Old: Paper Glaze Luxe Aztec Sunflowers

Look at the great glaze and pretty embellishments!

No colored image on today’s Picket Fence Studios DT card. Instead I’ve coloured up a die cut rainbow, A Rainbow die for All Seaons! It is quite a fun die, and the set includes a watermelon as well, but I decided to not include it on my card.

The blue card stock and the All About The Teals sequins add the sky and water drop effect. The sentiment is from the Animal Crackers You Deserve to be Spoiled set.

PFS More Watermelon

I’ve made another card with some of the watermelon themed stuff from the latest Picket Fence Studios release. This time I’ve used the Sweet Sweet Dear stamp set. The sweet girl seems to very much enjoy her watermelon. I used cardstock to match in colours before die cutting the watermelon in the A Rainbow Die for all Seasons die set. I coloured up each part individually and then put it on a black card stock to make the seeds visible. I used the same colours for the watermelon die as on the watermelon the girl is holding.

The fun embellishment are from the Watermelon Crush sequin mix and I’ve used a sentiment stamp from The Bakery stamp set.

Another photo. You can see both the coloured panel and the watermelon die have been raised from the rest. I’ve put foam tape under both.

PFS Watermelon shaker

Posted on by Liz

Anybody else noticing that this year is hurrying along at an absolutely ridiculous speed? I feel like I blinked and there April was gone. Thankfully thinks are looking to slow down a little in a few weeks and I cannot wait!

Here I’ve made a full size shaker! Not something that frequents this blog a lot, but they are still fun to make. This time I’ve made it using the A2 Full Front Shaker die by Picket Fence Studios together with their Shaker Sheets. I LOVE it! It is so easy to work with, and with their ridiculously large collection of awesome sequin mixes and embellishment jars you’re bound to find some new favourites. This one is called Watermelon Crush.

The background is made using the Watermelon Nectar. I stamped it up a few times and then coloured in aaaaall the watermelon pieces (while potentially having a bowl of cut melon next to me, shhh). The Oversized Hello die worked perfectly with the rest and it is easy to add a small sentiment strip to go with at a later date!

Here is the card laying down:
