Hello friends! Today I’m over Picket Fence Studios Blog sharing this card where I’m featuring the Geo Pineapple and Pineapple Collage Stencils, Something Sweet Stamp Set for my sentiment, Rose Gold, Daffodil Yellow and Leaf Green Paper Glaze.
Let’s begin! I started by placing the Pineapple Collage Stencil on top of a panel and using the Life Changing Blender Brushes I applied the ink. I used the following colors from LDRS Creative: Key Lime Pie, Olive Branch, Lantern Yellow and Iced Tea. They work really awesome by the way!
Then, I placed the Geo Pineapple on top of this background and I applied Rose Gold, Daffodil Yellow and Leaf Green Paper Glaze. I spread the paper glaze and also I pat using the same spatula to create more texture.
Also, to speed up the drying process I used my heat tool on top and got those wonderful bubbles that completed the texture on this card. Once it was dry I added some Nuvo drops for a final touch on the pineapple.
Finally, I stamped the sentiment from Something Sweet Stamp Set using the Black Hybrid ink. I adhered a white card base at the back and this card was finished. I really hope you got some inspiration and try these stencil and paper glaze. Have a wonderful day!

Hello friends! Today I’m up at Picket Fence Studios Blog sharing this birthday card using 4 different colors of foils to use with the Picket Fence Studios Happy Day Foiled Impression and Cutting Die. Additionally, for the background I used Points of Interest Stencil and One Year Older Stamp for the sentiment.
Let’s start! I placed the Picket Fence Studios Points of Interest Stencil on top of a white panel and applied Distress Oxide inks using Life Changing Blender Brushes. I removed the stencil and let the panel dry. In the next picture you will see the inks used on this card.
Once the panel was dry, I trimmed down a little bit the edges and adhered a white card base at the back.
Next, using the Gemini Foilpress machine I foiled the Happy Day Foiled Impression Die 4 times with different colors of foil. Then, I die cut all the pieces using the coordinating dies.
I stamped on my panel the Happy Birthday sentiment from Picket Fence Studios One Year Older Stamp Set using Hybrid Black ink and heat embossed it using WOW! Embossing Powder.
Finally, I added all die cuts on top of the background using foam double sided tape and a few sequins and this card was done.
Thank you so much for stopping by and have a marvelous day!!!
