"I love you Handsome" card
I don't make masculine cards very often, but I love how this one turned out! I love that we included the word "handsome" in our Phrase Builder: Hello die set, and that is how this card came to be. Here is a list of the stamps, dies, ink & jewels I've used to create this card. You will find my list of tools & such at the very end of the blog post.

The steps to creating this card are quite easy! I stamped the chevron background with our handy Pop Out Nested Chevron background stamp in the ink colors linked above, which includes all the layers cut apart for easy multi-color stamping. I left out one of the layers to leave room for the sentiment, then diecut it it with the Ornate Banner die set. I also created a matching blue frame with the same die set and layered it to the front.
The diecut word is cut from gold foil paper, then stacked with a couple layers cut from white cardstock. I diecut the shadow layer from vellum, and adhered them all together. Then I layered it at an angle within the open spot in the chevron background. Using my MISTI, I stamped the first part of the sentiment from our Simply Sentiments: Hello stamp set in Detail Black ink. I mounted the entire chevron piece to an A2 gold card base, then accented with our Jewels Mix to finish.
I reach for our Essentials die sets for pretty much every single card that I create, whether it is a Pinkfresh Studio card or not. They are affordable, versatile, and they were designed to give you those beautiful edges and finishing touches that only a die can provide. Definitely grab your favorites at 15% savings this weekend! (I do apologize that the set I'm using on this card is sold out. Be sure to sign up for a restock notification if you are interested in it. Never fear though, because there are lots of other amazing Essentials that are part of the sale!) If you have any questions about this card, leave them in the comments and I will be sure to reply.
Before you move along to the next stop on the hop, I wanted to invite you to follow me on social media. I would love to be crafty friends!
Have a great rest of your day!
