Holiday Cards with Pinkfresh Studio

Hello, friends! I hope those of you in the United States had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday with family and friends! Now I am definitely ready to dive into my holiday card making and I know my Pinkfresh Studio Christmas Wishes papers, stamps, and embellishments will be featured LOTS in my cards this year. I just love this collection! I have two holiday cards to share with you using the collection today!

For this card, I used the stamps, layering them to create the wreath and then stamped the sentiment in a nice, crisp red. I then used the puffy stickers (MY FAVORITE!) to add details to the wreath, placing the dove in the center.

For this super fun card I let the awesome patterned papers be the star! I then added a strip of striped accent and a rubber sticker (my OTHER favorite), for the sentiment. This card was ridiculously simple, but I seriously love how adorable it turned out! 

Have a Happy!

Happy Thanksgiving Eve, everyone! Today we have a brand new challenge over on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge blog and it is a great one for this holiday weekend! It's ANYTHING GOES time! The Design Team is featuring Altenew products this week. You don't have to use them to play along, but if you have some we'd love to see what you do with them!

Hello by Jennifer Ingle #JustJingle #SimonSaysStamp #Altenew


I pulled out the Altenew Quilled Elegance stamp set along with a set of Altenew dye inks to create my card for today. I love that these inks come in cubes so I can get lots of colors without a lot of cost! YAY! I did a little smooshing on watercolor paper for the color and then added the image in black ink over the smooshed ink. I colored in the letters using the Wink of Stella black brush. This has gold glitter in it, making it a perfect match for these warm color tones.

Hello ( detail)


I love how that Wink of Stella adds so much sparkle to the finished design! A simple strip of paper form the Lawn Fawn Let's Polka 6x6 paper pad finishes off the card.


Now it's YOUR turn! Create something NEW and fabulous and link it up over on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog for your chance to win a $50 Gift Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp store! Woot! Woot!


Have a Happy!

Because Intense Watercolor Makes Me Happy

Hello, folks! It is a glorious rainy day here in Boston! That is okay, though, because we have a brand new Simon Says Stamp Challenge for you today and I pulled out some intense watercolor for my card! Yup. That's right, watercolor doesn't have to be soft and subtle. It can be all about the color! Our challenge this week is to create Thinking of You cards and the Design Team is showing of Hero Arts products this week! You don't have to use Hero Arts to play along, but if you've got some, we'd love to see what you do with them!

Thinking of You


I created this awesome background using a KP Hero Arts background stamp, embossed in white on watercolor paper. I then loaded on the warm, fall color tones in random fashion for a happy, inviting look. I stamped and embossed the sentiment on vellum and wrapped it around the background panel so it would stand out, but not take away from the colors at all.

Thinking of You by Jennifer Ingle #JustJingle #HeroArts #SimonSaysStamp #PinkFreshStudio


A simple puffy sticker from Pinkfresh Studio finishes off the card with just a little added texture and visual interest.



Now it's YOUR turn! Create something fabulous inspired by the Thinking of You theme and link it up to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge blog for your chance to win a $50 Gift Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp store! You know you want that voucher! Get creating! And... hey, here's a wild and crazy idea... after you link it up your photo, pop that card into an envelope, slap a stamp on it and send it to a friend!

Have a Happy!

Turkey Card by Jennifer Ingle #SimonSaysStamp #Thanksgiving #JustJingle


I decided to have a little fun with this one. I created my own turkey using the leaves from the Simon Says Stamp One With Nature Set and then added a fun sentiment from the Thanksgiving Table set. I used all Simon inks for this one, too. I absolutely LOVE my Simon inks! For reals.
