Hi there! Today I’m joining Pinkfresh Studio for their December Release Blog Hop! You can check out the amazing new release HERE!
My first project features the gorgeous, new Citrus Bloom stencil & die set. I used several Pinkfresh Studio inks to add the color. I also used the new Heart Grid Hot Foil Plate for the background with Aurora foil and for the sentiment I used the Perfect Sentiment Hot Foil Plate.
My next card features the new Built on Dreams stencil & die set.
For the sentiment used the Perfect Sentiments: Holiday hot foil plate with some Gold Metallic Pearls.
Here is a video to show you how I created these cards.
GIVEAWAYS:
Pinkfresh Studio will be giving away the full release on the Pinkfresh blog & YouTube channel.
They will also be giving away a total of TEN $25 gift cards along the hop. As per usual with blog hops – the winners will be picked from the comments.
Winners will be posted on December 21, 2021 on their GIVEAWAY PAGE. Please check that page & claim your prize within 2 weeks.

December 13, 2021 at 8:30 amI can’t decide which I like best, Built On Dreams or Citrus Bloom. What I do know is every time I see your cards, they make me happy.

December 13, 2021 at 8:37 amAs always you hit it out of the park again. Even if I didn’t make cards, I’d catch your videos for the laughs and entertainment value. You rock.
Anne
December 13, 2021 at 8:54 amYour cards are always the best! Love these especially the shape card.
I could listen to your stories all night. I don’t care how long your videos go…the longer the better. Happy holidays to you, your family and Hank the Tank!

December 13, 2021 at 8:59 amYou never fail to come up with your own unique take on products. Great cards!
Lori Spitzer
December 13, 2021 at 9:04 amI love both of these. I have the Citrus Blooms set in my cart but after seeing you do these demos, I think I will get the Built on Dreams set instead. I thought you were going to put the sentiment of “From our house to yours” on the inside – that would really be perfect w/ the house shape card.
Love your work always! Excited about this release!

Michele W
December 13, 2021 at 10:33 amLove these cards. Love your stories, too. Be thankful Hank didn’t try to attack his reflection. Years ago when we owned a small business we got a call in the middle of the night. Seems a deer saw its reflection and went through the plate glass window, ran to the back of the store and left via the other window never to be seen again. Thanks for sharing your beautiful designs and fun stories. I especially like your shaped card.

December 13, 2021 at 2:12 pmI’m with some of the others. I love watching but also listening. My husband is from Rhode Island and it’s like listening to his relatives.
The house-shaped card is perfect for so many occasions.

December 13, 2021 at 4:49 pmI like that you have gotten away from traditional colors for the holidays and used a brighter pallette for Build Your Dreams Stamp and made a gorgeous holiday card. Way to go.

Phyllis Freese
December 13, 2021 at 8:18 pmI love listening to your family stories while you stencil. You created two beautiful cards. I love how Pink Fresh often offers stencils to use with their stamps & dies so it makes coloring look so professional.
Cynthia Koop
December 13, 2021 at 8:22 pmLaura, Laura, Laura!!! You are my absolute favorite card maker and video extraordinaire! Both your cards are beautiful. I just received my foil machine (I bought it for myself for Christmas), but I have not tried it out yet. I bought some items with it and will probably test it out when all my Christmas tasks are complete. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Diane Zalusky

Vicki Davis
December 14, 2021 at 11:52 amI just love the soft colors you used on these 2 projects. You definitely went outside your comfort zone. You know what I’m saying. So pretty! 💖
Jeanne Rice
December 14, 2021 at 12:12 pmThanks for the video. I would love to use the Perfect Sentiments but will go crazy if I can only get 50% salvageable sentiments! Love the stunning cards and the stencils. Thanks for the inspiration.
Cyndi Morris
December 14, 2021 at 1:38 pmAmazing cards. I love those layering stencils! I know how Hank feels — I growl when I see my reflection in the bathroom mirror every morning. While I’m definitely not a night owl (unless you consider 9:00 pm late), but I understand why you’d want to continue watching Nashville. I watched every episode when it came out — it was my favorite show.

December 14, 2021 at 1:53 pmI got just what I was hoping for here today! Eye candy in the form of beautiful cards, great advice in the form of adding shading to stenciling, real life in the form of foiling that didn’t come out perfectly, and great stories! Thank you so much for always making me smile as well as feel inspired!

Annette Gordon
December 14, 2021 at 7:58 pmI am glad that I am not the only one that sometimes has trouble with foil! Generally in the video’s they make it look so easy! Very encouraging I am not alone! When I first saw the house set, I wasn’t all that interested, but after you made it into a shape card, you now have me rethinking my purchase! I really like the blended two colours that you added. SO much colour it really makes it come alive!
PS I still have the card you sent me on display from 3 years ago! Its a favourite!
