Pinkfresh Studio February 2020 Background Stamp Release Blog Hop (+GIVEAWAYS!)

17 Feb

Good morning!  I’m excited to be a stop on the hop for the Pinkfresh Studio Background Stamp Release Blog Hop!  Pinkfresh Studio is debuting nine gorgeous rubber background stamps and I have projects to share using two of them!

Hello by Jessica Frost-Ballas for Pinkfresh Studio

First up is the beautiful Floral Shadow stamp!  I started by simply blending shaded lilac, wilted violet, picked raspberry, abandoned coral, scattered straw, and wild honey distress oxide inks randomly over a panel of strathmore bristol cardstock.  Once I was done blending the edges I splattered the panel with water and then set it aside to dry.  Once it was totally dry I stamped the Floral Shadow background stamp with versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder.

Next I die-cut the Hello from black and pink cardstock and adhered them together.  I arranged them over a tangle of black thread using foam mounting tape and adhered it to the card panel.  I stamped the smaller sentiment from Just Because onto the same pink cardstock with versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder before adhering it to the blended panel to finish the card!

Sending Good Vibes by Jessica Frost-Ballas for Pinkfresh Studio

For my second card I couldn’t wait to color the Lemon Lush stamp!  If you’re a regular reader you remember that I mentioned a lemon obsession last week! 😉 So to start I stamped the Lemon Lush onto Arches cold press watercolor paper with versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder.  Then I taped it to my work surface and watercolored it using my Karin Brush Markers!  I added color two ways: the first by coloring directly on the image and blending it out with a clean, damp paintbrush and the second, by scribbling the marker on my glass mat and picking up the diluted color with a damp brush.  I just love how gorgeously vibrant these markers are!

Next I die-cut the sentiment from vellum and yellow cardstock and adhered them together.  I arranged them on the panel and adhered them with vellum adhesive.  To finish the card I added a few yellow enamel dots!

And that’s it!  All of the new background stamps are now in stock over at Pinkfresh Studio and this week they’re running a shipping special so head over and shop early for the best selection!  I’m sure some of these fabulous stamps will sell out quick!

To celebrate the new release Pinkfresh Studio is giving away the full release over on the Pinkfresh Studio blog as well as their instagram account.  AND every hop stop is giving away a $25 gift card!  The more comments you leave, the more chances to win!  Winners will be announced on the Pinkfresh Studio blog on February 24th!  You should have arrived from Heather and Kristina is your next stop.  You can also find the full hop list below!
