A beautiful border for holiday cards from Pinkfresh Studio

It’s the Magical Holiday release day for Pinkfresh Studio and I’m sharing two cards using the namesake products from this release. I’m sharing two cards in my video today, the first one uses the Magical Holiday Press Plate and coordinating stencils.

For my second card, I used the Magical Holiday Stamps and the same colors to create this design:

I simply made two identical designs and simply flipped them and stacked them.

Here is my video showing you how the cards came together:

    Cathy…that card looks like your kind of card. The simple white with beautifully done elements. I am loving those sentiments. Great job.

    This is so incredibly versatile. It can be the focus of a card or a background or it could even go on an envelope. A must have.

    Clean and simply beautiful. It was interesting to see the difference between using the betterpress and a stamp. Is the betterpress ink different than other inks?

  91. Lori Spitzer says

    Hi, Cathy — Of all the cards I have seen from you over several years, this is in my top 5 faves. It’s GORGEOUS. So beautiful! The colors are perfect. The CAS aspect is perfect. WOW! I remain in awe! Thanks to Pinkfresh for inspiring you and, by extension, us!
