Here’s the next in the series of cards created with Pink Fresh Studio’s “Fleur 1” stamps and dies. This one turned out to be really difficult to photograph, but I think this photo ended up without too much glare.
The frames were die cut from glossy black cardstock, and the light reflected off of them so that in some of the photos, the frames appeared almost white. The skinny frames are from Altenew, and I adhered them at angles before adding the three blossoms from “Fleur 1.” The sentiment is from an older Papertrey Ink set “Sending You.” Another very CAS card. The cardstock color is correct in the first photo but got washed out in the second one. Lighting is such a problem in this old house!
I was happy to find the “Sending You” stamps. I found the dies as I was cleaning out and organizing, but couldn’t locate the stamps quickly. It’s a set that originally came in a CD case, and so was stored a bit differently. I’ve repackaged most of them, but not that one. I finally have all my dies inventoried. All the dies associated with a stamp set are filed with the stamps now. It should prevent any duplicate buying which has happened occasionally in the past. I have quite a few stand-alone dies as well, and I organized them by category (Words, Nature, Animals, etc.) or by company. From my days on a design team for an internet store, I have a nice collection of Spellbinder dies, and of course, there’s the Papertrey Ink collection of stand-alone dies.
I’m popping this in the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge which is “Anything Goes.“
I like the graphic lines the frames add to the sentiment font and the florals. Two cards in a row with yellow card stock! Does this mean you’re tired of winters’ grays?
The flowers look like cosmos, and in Japan I’ve seen a variety which does bloom orange!
I like the off set frames … I don’t think it’s just your house for the lighting, so many grey days without any sunlight.
