PFS Cake Everywhere

Posted on by Liz

Picket Fence Studios (this and all following links are affiliate links) have a fun new release out today that is all about cake! It is definitely a birthday party release for me for sure and I’m going to start off with this month’s mixed media card because they are so much fun to make!

The great new stamp set with lots of cake is called Sugar and Calorie-free. You can get coordinating dies to go with! For the mixed media background I started by inking up the Birthday Dance Confetti background stamp in various colours before stamping up circles from the Wreath Building Centers and Foliage.

I’ve used Pink Tinsel paper glaze velvet on the Simple Plaid 6×8 stencil, using just parts of it. The sentiment is from Animal Crackers A Little Note whereas the sequins are from the Peach Bellini embellishment jar.

And a close-up, because they are fun!

Time for some pencil colouring! I’ve used Caran d’Ache Luminance pencils on craft card stock. The stamp is from the set Friends Give the Best Hugs (this and all links affiliate links) from the most recent Picket Fence Studios release. And once again I’ve used a sentiment from the Surprise! It’s Your Day set. The card has been kept simple and the coloured and stamped panel is put on a white card base with a simple striped paper in between and some sequins on top.

I have created a fun mixed media background for my first card for this new Picket Fence Studios (this and all following links are affiliate links) release that is out today. I started by using various colours on the Sweet Candy Hearts background stamp before inking up the Bricks and Mortar 6×8 stencil in a beige colour and then using the Gold coloured Paper Splatter Watercolor. Next I used the Quilting Hearts 6×8 stencil together with two shades of Paper Glaze Luxe, Arctic Fox and Pink Magnolia.

The stamp is Million Little Things which I coloured up with my Copics before die cutting it. The sentiment is from Surprise! It’s Your Day. To finish off I added some sequins from the Vintage Christmas mix.

Here is a close-up of the card:

PFS Two Floral Cards in One

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.
