I have another very quick and easy shaped card made using just a die and a hot foil sentiment from Amazing Paper Grace. For this card I have used the Amazing Paper Grace Filigree Rectangle Etched Dies to both create the base card and make a frame for some beautiful pattern paper from Mintay. The elegant hot foiled sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Heart Felt Sentiments Hot Foil Plate Set added the perfect sentiment to complete the card. And of course an Amazing Paper Grace card is not finished until pearls are added to the decorative filigree die.
Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.
Here is my final submission for the Pink Fresh Studio November 2024 which is about ‘Thank You’ and the ink shades that are the best matches for the colors in the challenge are: Waterfall, Begonia, Mimosa, Citron & Storm.
This card is full of lots shine and sparkle with glitter, glitter card and shiny reverse hot foiled butterflies. For the sparkle I have die cut the background die from the Pink Fresh Studio Stained Glass from Pink Fresh Studio Ivory Glitter cardstock. I then die cut the frame from the Pink Fresh Studio Fancy Rectangle Frame out of gold cardstock.
I stamped and heat embossed the roses from the Pink Fresh Studio Garden Roses Stamp with fine gold embossing powder. The roses were coloured with the challenge inks before the image was die cut with the coordinating die. I added the roses over the gold frame with the bottom left of the flowers under the frame to give the feeling that the flowers were growing through the frame. The frame with the flowers were then added to the front od the card with foam strips and tape.
I added the hot foiled sentiment to the front over the flowers using scrap card for more dimension.
The butterflies were reverse foiled using the foil left over from the previous butterflies that I had foiled and once die cut I added two butterflies around the sentiment with foam squares.
To complete the card I sprinkled some glitter to the flowers and gold dust gems around the flowers and frame.

This week I have a simpler card to share with you made using one of my favourite Amazing Paper Grace dies – Tallulah Frill. This die set is just so beautiful and one I reach for a lot when I want to make timeless and classic cards that will become keepsakes. I have not been able to do much cardmaking lately, but I have been learning how to colour with Copic markers through some classes at Kit and Clowder which I am really enjoying as I have always loved colouring. So I decided to combine my love for cardmaking with my love for colouring and this card was the result.
The image I have coloured here is a digital stamp from Beccys’ Place and the Amazing Paper Grace Tallulah Frill die set went perfectly with it to create a pretty lacy frame to create an elegant card that can be kept to decorate a mantel or table.
Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.
My Project
I have made a top folding 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ card base out of white cardstock and then matted a lifht teal card on top leaving a narrow white mat.
I downloaded the digital stamp onto X-Pressit Paper and then coloured it with Copic markers. I trimmed this to 4 1/8″ x 2 7/8″.
I die cut two outer decorative frames using the Amazing Paper Grace Tallulah Frill die set and one decorative edge out of white cardstock. I added the decorative edge die behind one short edge of the frame before adding the second frame beneath the first frame. I then adhered the coloured panel behind the frame, making sure the white does not show behind the small lacey edge inside the frame. This frame was then added to the card front.
To complete the card I added clear Wink of Stella to the flowers and cup and pearls to the decorative frame.
I have just purchased a new hot foil machine so of course I had to try it out and yes I am much happier with this machine. I really love the border hot foil plates from the Amazing Paper Grace Delicate Impressions collection by Becca Feeken. The Amazing Paper Grace Diamonetta Background Hot Foil Plate creates the perfect background to add some gorgeous fussy cut coloured flowers from the Amazing Paper Grace Sweet Blooms Border Hot Foil Plate. Add these to a very pretty decorative floral border and a ‘heartfelt’ sentiment and the card is complete.

My Project
For my card I have cut a piece of cardstock 6 3/4″ x 8″ and scored at 5″ along the long side leave a front flap of 3″. I die cut the decorative floral border from the Amazing Paper Grace Graceful Floral Border Dies out of white cardstock and adhered the side under the front flap. I cut a piece of white cardstock 6 3/4″ x 2 7/8″ and adhered it to the underside of the front flap hiding the end of the decorative border. I then cut a piece of gold cardstock 2″ x 6 3/4″ and adhered it to the right side of the inside back of the card. I cut a piece of gold cardstock 6 1/2″ x 2 3/4″ and adhered it to the front flap. I cut a piece of white foil friendly paper 6 1/4″ x 2 1/2″ and foiled it with with Amazing Paper Grace Diamonetta Background Hot Foil Plate with gold foil. This was then applied over the gold panel on the flap. To finish the panel I die cut decorative edges out of gold cardstock using the Amazing Paper Grace Graceful Floral Lace dies and adhered them to the panel to add a decorative finish to the panel.
I hot foiled the Amazing Paper Grace Sweet Blooms Border Hot Foil Plate onto Hammermill white cardstock with gold foil. I then coloured the flowers and leaves with Copic markers and fussy cut the images out. These were then added over the diamond background within the border as shown.
To finish the card I hot foiled the sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Heartfelt Sentiments in gold foil on white cardstock and diecut it with the coordinating die. I also die cut two plain sentiment dies from white cardstock and stacked all three dies together with the foiled sentiment on top. This was then added to the front of the decorated panel on the card.
Today I am sharing a quick and easy Thank You card featuring the Pink Fresh Studio Anemone Magic washi tape flowers and dies. These flowers were left over from card kits I made for my friend Meetu at Krafters Cart where I will be teaching some classes at SENZ in Auckland next weekend. I love the Pink Fresh studio Stained Glass die and here I have die cut two dies and adhered one upside down to create a new look for my background. The round Stitched Scallop dies created a frame for the pretty flowers and I have finished the card with a hot foiled sentiment and vellum butterflies.
My Project
For my card I have made a tent fold 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ card base out of white cardstock. I have die cut two dies using the Pink Fresh Studio Stained Glass die and adhered them together by putting one the opposite way to the other to make a wonderful textured background. I then die cut the circle die using the Pink Fresh Studio Essentials Stitched Scallop Circles die and adhered it to the front of the card. I added some flowers around the circle and added a hot foiled sentiment to the centre of the circle from the Pink Fresh Studio Perfect Sentiments set. To finish the card I added a couple of vellum hot foiled butterflies from the Pink Fresh Studio Small Butterflies Hot Foil Plate and Die sets.
This card was so quick and easy to put together.
