Happy Friday, friends! Today is a super exciting day, as we are celebrating our 5th birthday over at Pinkfresh Studio! This is such a milestone for our small business! I have been working for Pinkfresh Studio for almost a year and a half, and it has been such a huge blessing in my life. It is my true dream job, and I am so grateful to have found it, and my friendship with Kinnari, the owner of Pinkfresh.
SHOPPING PROMOS
There is so much to go over, but first - why don't I share the awesome shopping promos we have going on! First up is this free die with ANY purchase from the Pinkfresh Studio store. It will automatically load into your cart!We will be offering FREE shipping in the USA on orders $25+, or discounted shipping for our International friends! Just use the code:
FREESHIP5THBDAY
This promo is valid until Sunday, April 7th at 11:59pm. The code will deduct $5.50 from your order, which is the equivalent of free U.S. shipping, or discounted International shipping.
Now, I will put the rest of the blog hop & GIVEAWAY info down at the bottom of my post, but how about we get to my projects for today? I've created some birthday themed projects using lots of stamps & dies from our January release. I actually created these long before the birthday event, so I didn't use the #5 on any of my cards. I assume there will be plenty of them along the hop today! :)
I've done all my stamping & watercolor/watercolor smooshing using the same inks (linked below) so all the colors would coordinate. I've just been loving the combo of pink, blue & yellow - it feels so springy!
I also added pops of gold to each card, either by heat embossing or in the form of gold glitter paper. I'm a huge gold fan, and I add a touch of it to most of my cards! And if you know anything about me, you know that I LOVE dimension - so I popped a lot of my layers up with foam adhesive.
I've used my favorite Arches watercolor paper for all of these cards. It's not bright white, so instead I've used colorful card bases in place of my usual white. I hope that you like my cards for today!
