PFS Two Floral Cards in One

Posted on by Liz

Today I’ve got two cards to share with you made with the Hello There die (this and all links are affiliate links) from the new Picket Fence Studios release! I coloured up the huge Blooming Chrysanthemum and used the new Hello die to cut Hello out from the coloured flower. I then put the whole thing on foam tape and the card was done. Simple and pretty!

You can see that the foam tape raises everything up from the card base.

As it is a whole Hello die it will align perfectly completely effortlessly.

For the matching card I used the cut out hello and glued them onto a base where I had stamped up the flower in a pale shade. I used a few layers of hello to raise the text from the panel and then I layered a couple of white “there”‘s to put on top. Here I also used a few sequins from the I’m Alive embellishment jar.

Here is a close-up of this one as well where you can easily spot the layers.

PFS New Release – Wreath

Posted on by Liz

I’ve made a wreath as my first card for the new Picket Fence Studios (this and all following links are affiliate links) release. First I made a panel using the A2 Pierced Blanket Cover die. I’ve cut out various of the dies from the new Macrame Pot and Flora dies in different colours and then I built a wreath using the 3.0″ Connected Circles Shaker Creator die. I cut out the word there from the new Another Hello There word die in a darker matching colour (with a few white ones behind to make it pop) and put it partially into the circle before adding a small Hi and a few sequins from the All About the Teals sequin mix.

PFS Christmas Cupcake

Posted on by Liz

I’ve coloured up the other Kelly Taylor drawn stamp from the latest Picket Fence Studios release as well. I’ve gone with a chocolate flavoured cupcake (of course) with peach frosting. This is the Sweet Holiday stamp. It comes with a coordinating die set. The blue stamped sentiment is from the Candy Cane Christmas stamp set, whereas the bigger sentiment is from Stocking Full of Coal. I’ve used an Inner Glow stencil for the effect around the cupcake and then I filled the card with loads of sequins from the Winter Blues sequin mix.

PFS collab with Catherine Pooler

I’ve gotten to try some of Catherine Pooler Designs‘s Inks and I love them! Juicy inks and bright colours, yes please! For my card I have ink blended these three colours: Tiara, Bellini and Coral Cabana. The rest of the products are by Picket Fence Studios (this and all links to follow are affiliate links).

After inking up the background I used two different Paper Splatter Watercolours: Bark Brown and Liquid Gold. The snowflakes are from two different sets, Winter Snowflakes and More Winter Snowflakes. To make the sentiment pop out, I used text from the Snowone Else Like You set and embossed it onto black paper. The golden sequins is from the Karma is Like a Breeze sequin mix, whereas the snowflakes and transparent ones are from Holiday Stockings.

Here is another photo of card.

PFS Beary Christmas

Posted on by Liz

My take on the cute Beary Christmas To You (this and all links are affiliate links) stamp from this month’s Picket Fence Studios release is that I made the bear into a polar bear!

I’ve stamped the sentiment twice. It is called Another Joyeux Noel. Once on the background and then also on the coloured image. This is because the coloured image was die cut after I coloured it, but I didn’t want the text stamp to disappear behind it. I used only the Christmas part of the sentiment and used a text stamp from the Sweet Holiday set which I embossed in white onto black to go with. The card was finished off with a few sequins from The Winter Blues mix.

The text stamp is stamped right onto the card base whereas the coloured image is die cut and put on foam tape to get some dimension. I coloured up the background behind him in a deeper shade of blue to make him stand out more.

Here is a close-up of the polar bear because he’s cute!
