Hello friends! I am excited to be hopping along with the Pinkfresh Studio June Release Blog Hop! I have created 4 different projects today using the gorgeous new Folk Floral Stem Sets.
** Affiliated links are used where applicable at no extra charge to you.**

For my first card, I created a 3.5″ x 8.5″ slimline card featuring the gorgeous Folk Floral Stem Hot Foil along with the Floral Folk Stem Die. I used my Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil Machine to first hot foil two separate Folk Floral Stem flowers onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I then used Copic Markers to color my flowers and the coordinating die set (and Spellbinders 6 Platinum Die Cutting Machine) to cut them out.

Copic Colors Used:
- Purples: BV0000, BV000, BV02, BV13
- Yellows: Y13, Y15, V12
- Greens: YG01, YG06, YG17, YG67

Next, I created my card base by trimming a piece light yellow cards stock to slightly larger than 3.5″ x 5.5″. I then blended a mix of Pinkfresh Studio yellows inks (colors are listed in the links below) from both the bottom left and top right corners, starting with my darkest color and then fading to my lightest one. Once dry, I then trimmed this piece down to 3.5″ x 8.5″ to cut off any dark ink stains on the sides of my card stock. I then added a few white and reddish yellow ink splatters with a size 4 round paint brush and some diluted ink and stamped my sentiment. Lastly, I added my flowers to my background with 3D Foam Adhesive Tape for a nice pop of dimension.

For my next project, I combined the same stamp and die set that I used above along with the new Dotted Scallops Coverplate Die. I absolutely love the subtle but gorgeous look of this coverplate! Prior to die cutting with this background die, I trimmed a piece of light pink card stock to 4″ x 5.25″ and lightly blended it with a few Pinkfresh Studio pink inks. I layered this piece onto a 4.25″ x 5.5″ white top folding card base.

This time, I used the Folk Floral Stem Stamp and stamped it onto another piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I used Copic Markers to color my image and the coordinating die set to cut it out. For my sentiment, I used the new Heart Smiles Stamp and Die Sets, and heat embossed my sentiment onto a piece of black card stock before cutting it out.
Copic Colors Used:
- Pinks: RV00, RV52, RV55, RV66
- Teals: G000, BG11, BG13, BG49
- Yellows: Y13, Y15, V12

For my last two cards, I also stamped my floral image with black ink. However, on one card I used Copic Markers and on the other one, I used the new Folk Floral Stem Stencil Set along with some Pinkfresh Studio Ink to color my image.

For this card, I used Copic Markers to color my image. For my background, I blended the inks from the Island Oasis Premium Dye Ink Cube Pack onto a piece of light teal card stock. I once again used some 3D Foam Adhesive Squares to add my image to my card and trimmed off any flowers/leaves that were hanging over the edges of my card with a sharp pair of scissors.

Copic Colors Used:
- Teals: G000, BG11, BG13, BG49
- Greens: G40, G43, G46, G99
- Yellows: Y13, Y15, V12

For my last card, I used the new Folk Floral Stem (4 piece) Stencil Set to color my image. I made my card into a mini slimline card measuring at 3.5″ x 6″. I ink blended my card background with the same Island Oasis Premium Dye Ink Cube Pack that I had used for the card above.

Inks Used:
- Pinks: Sparkling Rose, Raspberry Bliss
- Leaves: Ocean Breeze, Mermaid Cove
- Yellow: Sweet Mustard

But I see that you, too, were taken by that Folk Floral set! Your cards are GORGEOUS!!!!! SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! Love the vibrant colors and especially the COMBINATIONS of the colors. WOW! You rocked it!
