Happy Birthday Vivien

November 25, 2020

Hi there! Today I have a sweet, little birthday card that I created for my daughter’s friend, Vivien.

Pinkfresh Studio-My Favorite StoryPinkfresh Studio-My Favorite Story

I don’t often show all the many birthday cards that I create for my daughter’s friends. I make many, and they are almost always very last minute. I usually never have time to photograph them, but today I made a point to share this one because it is so cute. My daughters always want everything personalized for their friends. This is where alpha dies and alpha stickers come in handy. For this card I used the Pinkfresh Studio Noteworthy Puffy Alpha Stickers.

For the pattern papers I used the My Favorite Story 6×6 pack along with a few circle dies. My favorite is that layered bow. I used the My Favorite Story Fabric Bows. I also added a Reverse Birthday sentiment strips that was die cut with one of the Sentiment Label dies. For embellishment I used a few enamel dots in coordinating colors.

This is an extra special birthday card for Vivien. Vivien is a sweet little Hungarian girl who has only been in Germany for a year or so, just like Emma. Vivien cannot speak any English so it forces both girls to speak German to each other. You should hear their cute, little squeaky voices just jibber-jabbering away to each other in German with so many giggles.

I get teary eyed just looking at this card that Emma addressed to Vivien. It says, “You are my best friend. When I came to Germany I thought I wouldn’t have any friends, but I have one. My only friend is you!” I’m not sure if her grammar and spelling are perfectly correct, but it’s perfectly full of heart:) Here’s Vivien & Emma together.

The birthday present was full of pink glittery slime and stickers. Gotta love 10 year old girls! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Craft Hour with Pinkfresh Studio

September 13, 2020

Hi there! Today I have a colorful project to share that I created with my talented friend, Jeff Lindberg. I joined Jeff for an episode of Craft Hour over on the Pinkfresh Studio’s YouTube channel.

Pinkfresh Studio-Sweet Blooms, Simply Diamonds die, Lea Ornate Uppercase, Heather Lowercase, Simply Sentiments-Hello

I asked Jeff beforehand what he would like to do, and he said, “Laura, teach me to blend like buttah:)” So that’s what we did! For the background we embossed the Sweet Blooms in clear and blended Pinkfresh Studio inks for the color. We added the Simply Diamonds die cut over the emboss resist and for the sentiment we used Lea’s Ornate Uppercase & Heather’s Lowercase Alpha dies. I added a coordinating embossed sentiment from the Simply Sentiments: Hello set.

Here’s the Craft Hour Live replay if you haven’t seen it already. There were so many lovely familiar faces joining us live. I had the best time, but I’m not gonna lie, I was pretty nervous to do a live for the first time. Jeff was such a wonderful host. I’d join him again anytime.
