Pinkfresh Studio Essentials 3 Release Blog Hop

Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Pinkfresh Studio for their Essentials 3 Release Blog Hop.

Pinkfresh Studio-Ornate Banner, Classic Word Dies, Fancy Diagonal Stripes, Ornate Oval Frame, Classic Holiday Words,

I’ve created a couple of projects uses these fun, new dies. This first card features the Ornate Banner die set.

Pinkfresh Studio-Ornate Banner, Classic Word Dies

I layered two banners. The smaller banner has strips of solid colored adhered on a diagonal. For the sentiment I used the Classic Words die set along with a coordinating embossed sentiment from the Scripted Bold Sentiments 1 set.

This next card features the Fancy Diagonal Stripes die. I used Ivory cardstock for the die cut and adhered it over a white card base.

Pinkfresh Studio-Fancy Diagonal Stripes, Ornate Oval Frame, Classic Holiday Words

I layered a frame over the stripes using the Ornate Oval Frame die.

    Oh my goodness! I LOVE both of your cards–the rainbow gems on the gorgeous white background–so beautiful. I’m not a pink person, but the pink with stripes card is amazing! Yep, gotta practice the German! I’m German by heritage, have visited there a few times. Our kids both learned German in HS, DD has a German minor, attended college in Germany for a semester. We did find most people also spoke English.
