Pinkfresh Studio “Gather & Bloom” Release Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to  Pinkfresh Studio “Gather & Bloom” Release Blog Hop !!!

If you’re coming from the Pinkfresh Studio blog, welcome! I hope you had a chance to check out the full release before hopping over here.

It’s release day at Pinkfresh Studio! From a cozy corner to a beautifully set table, the new Gather & Bloom Release from Pinkfresh Studio is all about the little details that make everyday moments special! This collection brings together charming lifestyle illustrations, delicate florals, intricate decorative elements, and playful geometric patterns. I especially love how it combines cozy, inviting imagery with versatile designs that can be used in so many creative ways. There’s plenty to mix, match, and explore, making this release a fun one to get creative with!

I’m sharing two cards created with some of the beautiful products from the new Release.

My first card features the Gathered in Gratitude and the Heirloom Patchwork product suites from this release.

To start, I stamped the Gathered in Gratitude images in Detail Black and colored them using the coordinating stencils in the following colors.

• Stencil 1: Waterfall, Bay Leaf, Grassy Knoll, Wisteria
• Stencil 2: Sky Blue, Wisteria, Bay Leaf
• Stencil 3: Coral Reef, Peony, Clementine, Bay Leaf, Grassy Knoll
• Stencil 4: Bay Leaf, Grassy Knoll, Warm Buff
• Stencil 5: Raspberry Bliss, Clementine
• Stencil 6: Raspberry Bliss, Hydrangea, Mulberry Blush

After the stenciling was completed, I die cut all the elements using the coordinating die.

To create the background, I used the Heirloom Patchwork stencils and die.  I first die cut a A2 sized white panel with the Heirloom Patchwork die, then added color with the coordinating  stencils. For this card, I used only two of the four stencils so that some areas of the background would remain white. I wanted to bring in a bold red accent to coordinate with the wine elements, which are one of the main focal points of the card, so I chose Peony and CandyApple. 

I adhered the finished background panel to a white cardbase, then added back some of the small die cut pieces after inking them in Candy Apple.

To create a table for the stenciled elements, I used the Heirloom Nested Frames dies. For the larger piece, I first cut a white panel with the Leafy Loops coverplate die, then die cut it again with one of the Heirloom Nested Frames dies. I cut the smaller piece from white cardstock using a smaller die from the same set. I adhered the larger piece to the card as shown, then added the smaller one on top with foam tape for dimension.

Next, I arranged the stenciled Gathered in Gratitude elements over the table, attaching some of them with foam tape for dimension. The sentiment from the Gathered in Gratitude stamp set was stamped in Detail Black, die cut, and stacked with three additional die cuts before being added to the card. 

To finish the design, I added five Magenta Glitter Drops.

The second card showcases the Cozy Corner product suite and the Stitched Heart Lattice Press Plate from this release.

I started by pressing the Cozy Corner image in Detail Black, then colored it using the coordinating stencils in the following colors.

• Stencil 1: Coral Reef and Peony for the cushion and book, Peach Fuzz and Warm Buff for the rug, and Bay Leaf and Grassy Knoll for the plant
• Stencil 2: Sky Blue, Waterfall
• Stencil 3: Waterfall, Paradise
• Stencil 4: Wisteria, Lavender
• Stencil 5: Hydrangea
• Stencil 6: Doe, Gathered Twigs
• Stencil 7: Sunshine

Before I started stenciling, I checked where the light from Stencil 7 would fall and kept those areas slightly lighter while coloring. This helped the yellow glow feel more natural and gave the scene a softly illuminated look. Once the stenciling was complete, I die cut the image using the coordinating die and set it aside.

For the background, I created a loose watercolor wash on Premium Watercolor Paper using  Peach Fuzz, Seaside and Lavender Premium Liquid Watercolors. After the watercolored panel was dry, I added splatters of Lavender and white opaque ink. 

I then cut the panel with the largest die from the Nested Rectangles: Diagonal Stitch die set and dry embossed it with the Stitched Heart Lattice Press plate. 

I adhered the finished panel to a white cardbase, then foam mounted the Cozy Corner image on top.  The sentiment from the same set was pressed in Detail Black, die cut, and added to the card. To finish the design, I added three Ice Clear Drops along the ray of the light for a little  sparkle and to emphasize the soft glow in the scene.
