I am Back!

 

It has been a few weeks since I have posted.................

Today is the day I am posting my card for our One Plus Twelve challenge in 2026.  This is year number 8.  For this challenge, we are to use just one stamp, to make a card every month and post on the 3rd of each month.  For this year, I picked a Pinkfresh Studio set called Amazing Things.  The set includes a stamp set, matching dies, a 5-piece stencil set and a better press set. I am excited that I get to use this set every month for all of 2026 and have so many options.   

For my card this month, I used the press plate with gold hot foil for the image.  I then brush blended the image with the stencil set using shades of pinks and greens with Taylored Expression inks. I then die cut the floral image with the matching die and layered twice. The background is a Pinkfresh Cover Plate called Diamond Lattice with a gold metallic frame cut from Taylored Expressions Frame in Frame Die Set.  The sentiment is also from the same set and I used the same gold foil and die cut.  I added some Pinkfresh Gold Metallic Pearls around the image.
