Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Pinkfresh Studio for their March release blog hop.
For this new release I used the gorgeous new washi, stamp & die combinations. For my first card I used the Indigo Vines washi & die set. I embossed a sentiment from Floral Notes and added several Jewels for embellishment.
This next card features the Joyful Bouquet washi, stamp & die combination. For both cards I added strips of solid colored cardstock to squeeze in more color. The sentiment is also from the Joyful Bouquet stamp set.
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 and YouTube channel. There will be a total of 10 $25 gift cards chosen from all the blogs on the hop list. As per usual with blog hops – the winners will be picked from the comments.
Winners will be posted on March 15, 2021 on the Pinkfresh Studio GIVEAWAY PAGE. Please check that page & claim your prize within 2 weeks.

March 8, 2021 at 4:50 pmHi, LB –
You crack me up. First, you did pronounce “ephemera” correctly. Nice job! But I wish I could make a worldwide announcement that “bouquet” is pronounced “boo” as in a Halloween ghost… BOO-kay. Not to be confused with “bokeh” (boh-keh). Ah, well… You crack me up with your “aggressive crop” — so funny.
Both cards turned out GREAT and I liked the second one (the Beautiful Bouquet one) better after watching the video. Thanks SO MUCH for always keeping your videos to a reasonable length. I try to watch the longer ones but usually end up falling asleep because I have to wait until late in the day /night to do so and by then, I’m pooped.
Thanks a million and keep the PF videos (and all videos, really) coming! We love ’em!

March 9, 2021 at 5:05 amAfter a long day at work, it was so nice to come home and watch your short and uplifting card video. I find joy in coming to your blog! Its all part of my journey. 🙂 I really liked the stipes! I have been on a stripe kick the last month, and this colour scheme is so pretty! I think I am going to steal it next! And I just loved both of your cards. And the layering of the washi tape, is fantastic! I really liked the look of the 2nd card. I would have never even guessed it came from the joyful Bouquet, I love how you got a completely different look out of it! They are both so happy and cheerfully and made my day.
