Hello there. Popping in to share a card for the new challenge at Cardz 4 Galz. Dawn has chosen the theme of ‘Stripes’. Here is my card:
My use of stripes is in the background foiled panel. I layered that onto a piece of gold glitter card stock. I added another frame from a Pinkfresh Studio die set, then created the images.
These images are from another Pinkfresh Studio suite – washi tape onto white card, then die cut with the matching dies.
The images were arranged as you see, and some ombre glitter gems added.
The sentiment is also gold foiled, and stacked with two or three die cuts instead of 3D foam.
There is a lot of gold going on in this card – I must have been in one of my blingy moods.
I hope you can come and join us with your take on our theme of ‘stripes’.
Hello everyone. You remember how I said yesterday that I wouldn’t be using any more Pinkfresh washi for a while…..? Well – I may have just told a little fib. I watched a Jennifer McGuire video and totally inspired to create – but this was using more Pinkfresh washi. I changed the washi to another product suite – Indigo Roses – and created this card:
There are also three other panels I am working on, but this card came together first.
I first attached the washi tape to white card stock, then used the matching dies.
I followed Jennifer’s examples of cutting down another white card to four rectangles. I used an old Spellbinders embossing folder on each of the four rectangles. This one has the date of 2012 on the back……!! It is an ‘M-Bossabilities’ reversible embossing folder called Garden Lattice – two designs for the price of one, and is A4 in size. It’s amazing what you find in your stash when looking for something else, isn’t it?
Taking guidance from the YouTube video, I taped the four rectangles together, attached the die cut washi images, cut the rectangles apart – then attached more images. The video explains it in far more detail and is very easy to follow.
Once the panel designs suited my eye, I created the folded card base, matted some gold, then found some blue card stock from Time 4 Tea Designs which matched the indigo roses.
The mats and layers were created and attached to the card base, then the floral panel adhered to the left front.
A previously created foiled sentiment was added, and some gold gems. I also finished the inside – very unusual for me – but I was in the zone.
It really is hard to put away products you are having fun with, and I have several rolls of washi from different product suites at Pinkfresh Studio. A few of them were from virtual events – there is a lot of washi on each roll…
Thank you for bearing with me for the past few days.
I shall be entering the following challenges:
CYHTP – embossing folder – option of lucky/St Patrick’s Day not taken
Hi there. I am sharing the final project – for now – using the remainder of the Pinkfresh Studio washi. I am sure I will be using their washi tape for future projects, but this is the last project for now:
The background panel was created using some Concord & 9th card stock, and a Spellbinders embossing folder. This adhered flat to the card base.
I used the frame die set from the event to create the white outer frame, and then die cut the smaller label with the same gorgeous gold glittery card stock I have used previously.
Once the middle gold and the outer white pieces were attached, I played around with the large and two smaller images until I was happy, and added a sentiment stripped foiled in black – previously created.

Hello, I am still working through some of the remainder of the Pinkfresh Studio washi tape received as part of a recent virtual event. I only die cut the entire images twice – and there are lots of florals to be used.
Here is my card for today:
For the background on this card I used previously created foiled panel and a Honey Bee Stamps plaid foil plate.
I then created the glittery gold panel using a Pinkfresh Studio die set, and arranged the floral images around and about until I was happy with the design.
I added the foiled black strip sentiment as a stand-out piece – no other black on the card – but I liked how it stood out.
Hi there. I have another project to share using some of the pieces left over from a previous project:
I again used the stencil from Pinkfresh Studio and there recent virtual event, as well as the washi tape suite.
The washi was adhered to some white card, then the images die cut using the matching dies.
The background panel was created using the layering stencils received as part of this event, and die cut using a couple of frame dies. For this frame, I also inserted the middle back into the frame.
There was too much white visible around the frame and flowers, so I added a panel of Concord & 9th card stock, and glued everything down. The sentiment is a foiled sentiment previously created.
