Hey everyone. Today I’m participating in the My Sweet Petunia and Pink Fresh studio blog hop. There are amazingly talented people on this hop full of inspiration.
My cards today feature products from Pink Fresh Studio. Of course I would not have been able to create such beautiful cards without my handy Misti stamping tool. My first card I used the Take Pride stamp set and the Botanical Circle from Pink Fresh Studio. Using my Misti I double stamped the image to achieve a rich black image. Next I pulled out my Copics and colored pencils to fill in my flowers.
Once I was complete with the coloring I fussy cut out the image. I placed the Botanical Circle dies onto a piece of card stock and ran it through my die cutting machine to emboss the image onto to the card stock. Placing my floral image onto with foam dots for added dimension. Adhered this panel to a white card base ad added a few enamel dots using my nuvo drops.
My next card features the gorgeous Scripted Bold Sentiments 1 stamp set from Pink Fresh Studio. I pulled out my Misti to stamp the large hooray onto black card stock with versa mark ink. I sprinkled the sentiment with gold embossing powder and heat set it. Once completely heated, I fussy cut the sentiment out.
The background of my card was created using gold striped vellum paper. I think this makes a striking background for my sentiment. Die cutting the vellum and a black piece of cardstock with a stitched die finishes off the boarder of my panels. I popped up the sentiment and added a few nuvo drops to pull in the white from the card base.
My Sweet Petunia and Pink Fresh Studio are each giving away a $50 shopping spree. Make sure to comment along the hop for your chance to win. Winners will be announced on the My Sweet Petunia and Pink Fresh Studio blogs next Friday. Good luck everyone.
Just love an embossed card – brilliant idea for these dies, Dana! and what a gorgeous backdrop to your wreath. But, I have to be honest… you had me at this sentiment!

As always your cards are just beautiful Dana!
Love the embossed background and those beautiful flowers on the first card and the gold striped vellum sets off your sentiment perfectly on the second one!
First time here and I love your projects… I’ll definitely be back again and again.
Beautiful! I love the foil, I really need to break out my foils! Thanks for sharing.
The wreath card is lovely with the pop up and coral background. The gold, velum card is cool!
Love your cards Dana. Popping the second up on black cardstock was very impactful! Thank you for the inspiration!
I love that wow factor of the stunning gold and simple black. Gorgeous
I like the colors you chose for your flowers. The peach and yellow are great together.

Great dry embossing with the Dies.

Beautiful cards !! Thanks for the inspiration !!
Beautiful cards, and fabulous sentiments. I’ve never seen either sentiment set, so thanks for highlighting them– gonna have to spend more time than I already do looking at PFS products. And I agree– the Misti has proven to be a worthwhile investment– couldn’t get even half the consistency or quality w/out it. Thanks so much for sharing your creative talents on the hop (and introducing me to some items I’ve clearly missed!). Take care and stay safe!
Such pretty cards. I really like the first one with that large die embossed for the background and your stamping and coloring. Love your color choice!
I am newer to stamping and have never thought to emboss on black paper. I love it! It is so striking and really makes your sentiment pop! Both of your cards are beautiful!
Gold embossed vellum for the win! Awesome cards!
Stunning cards! I love that beautiful wreath centered over the pretty embossed panel…what a perfect frame! Black and gold is always in style!
Awesome cards. Loved the gold striped background
Wow, Dana! Your work is just spectacular! So gorgeous! Thanks for giving me so many great ideas and for showcasing the new items.
Both cards are fantastic. Thanks for the inspiration.

Wonderfully eye-catching cards, Dana! I love them both!! Great use of colour and gold on the second card! Thanks so much for the great inspiration! Take care! 🙂
My favorite part of your designs is the gold embossed, fussycut sentiment. Very nicely done. Thank you.
Love the big sentiment for its size and the small sentiment for what it says. Great set!
i really like the wreath card, it is very versatile
Your cards are beautiful! And you are to be commended on you amazing fussy cutting skills!
Absolutely beautiful, both of them! Thanks for such gorgeous inspiration!

Great colors. I love the embossed design. Beautiful cards.
Two very different cards, both lovely!
Both are lovely cards. I like that embossing on your first card with the sentiment in the circle. The gold card is so elegant.
Wow, love that first card!
Love both cards! Beautiful coloring on the flowers and the second card is fabulous for so many occasions, man or woman… makes me think of graduation or weddings.
Wonderful cards! That sentiment on the first card is priceless!
These cards are so gorgeous! Especially the last card! That one is my favorite.
This card is very classy looking.
These cards are absolutely gorgeous, Dana!! I adore the embossed background on the wreath card…what a great idea!! And of course, the gold is glorious!!! 🙂
Good idea with the novo drops. It really did co-ordinate with the white card base.
Lovely cards! I really like what you did with the botanical wreath stamp. Thanks for sharing.
What incredible cards!!! I especially like the first card. The background really compliments the botanical circle.
That embossing makes such a lovely background
Wonderful variety in your cards. I love them both!
I never think to use the die to emboss. Brilliant!
These are both terrific, but the sentiment on the first card is extra special!
Your cards are both lovely. The gold striped one is a real celebration card!
Gorgeous design and stunning details. Love the embossed wreath.
Pretty cards! Love that vellum background with the gold. Works perfectly for your creation!
Beautiful cards! I love the first one with that pretty floral design and the embossed background!
Both cards are beautiful! The embossing behind the floral wreath is gorgeous, and I love that gold striped vellum paper!
Just beautiful. I really like your first one and combining the embossed background and then the raised wreath with the sentiment in the middle!
I love the gold stripes.
The gold card is a perfect choice for the sentiment, “hooray”.
Love the extra texture the embossing adds on the first card! Beautiful!
Beautiful cards! I particularly like the wreath with the embossed background. Very clever and I love the dimension and texture!
Your cards are gorgeous! I love the gold and silver one!
Gorgeous floral design, and I also love the beautiful black and gold card, Dana. I really “need” those fabulous sentiments.
Fantastic cards! I really love the sentiment on your first card.
love how creative you are, Dana with the products – your cards are just gorgeous 🙂
Two different, yet beautiful cards! The peach floral card is my favorite. The embossing in the background really adds dimension to the card. Great idea!
Beautiful!
Gorgeous cards. I love the embossing on the first one and those striking gold stripes on the second. Amazing!
Both cards are so beautiful! The gold is so striking!
Such cute cards! I especially like the 1st one.
Two lovely cards. Pinkfresh has some great products in their lineup
The coral card stock and gorgeous and with the imprint on it and the floral wreath on top a very nice combination. I like your choice of where you put the dimension on the wreath and not the sentiment.
Fabulous cards with even more must have supplies, this blog hop is stupendous!
Love your cards! The botanical embossed circles makes a perfect background. Oh that vellum background is GORGEOUS too.
I looove the black and gold combination! wow! stunning! 🙂
Gorgeous set of cards, both are so unique.
Both cards are great!
The stitched rectangle with the combination of the Gold and Black makes for a classy card!
Thanks for sharing.
Lovin’ the bold gold card! Both are great!
Pretty cards! Nice embossed background and lovely wreath! TFS
I am a fan of your work. Beautiful cards.
First visit Dana and your work is gorgeous. I don’t know how we existed without our Misti’s. So far I just have the Mini but am leaning toward purchasing the bigger one. Thanks for these, beautiful work.
Love how you used the die to create your base for the first card. So creative! And love those gold stripes! Thanks for sharing these great ideas with us!
It’s always great to see things I already own in cards. I’m definitely going to try embossing my Botanical Circle in cards, especially with ones I use these great sentiments on. Thanks for the ideas.
Love that first card’s
die background! Both
cards are lovely.

Your cards are lovely and I appreciate you sharing details of how to accomplish these looks. Thank you!
Oh my, what beautiful cards. I love the dry embossing on the first one. It adds an elegant touch like nothing else. By the way, I really enjoy your You Tube channel. Thanks!
Okay.. at first glance I was so impressed with the precision of your gold embossing on the vellum. (Tee hee I understand). But the botanical emboss, that’s yours and terrific… I have those dies from PinkFresh and definately will be trying that! THANKS. This is the perfect stamp for the Misti… lots of bits that may need a second or more touch and done…perfection every time!
Awesome cards I love how you impressed the die in the 1st one to create interest underneath the floral wreath. I also love the gold elegance of the 2nd.
Gorgeous cards! I really like both of your creations. Thanks for sharing.
Striking cards that are so pleasing to my eyes. Thanks for sharing.
