Hi friends! I’m joining Pinkfresh Studio today for their Essentials 3 Release Blog Hop. There is so much inspiration being shared today by amazing crafters. You will find the full blog hop lineup listed below, as well as details for giveaways on today’s hop!

I made three cards to share on today’s blog hop. These first two cards feature the new Radiating Background 1, and Diagonal Stitched Squares. I picked coordinating card stock to match the beautiful Home For The Holidays pattern paper.

I kept the above pink card simple, using a die-cut sentiment from Classic Holiday Words as a single accent.

I picked white card stock for my second card, matching the white background in the pattern paper. I die-cut JOY from Poppy card stock with letters from Adore Alpha die set, and added a sentiment from Merry Days stamp set.
For my third card, I paired Diagonal Stitched Squares and Teardrop Tag With Fillable Elements together.
I die-cut several colors of card stock with a die from Teardrop Tag With Fillable Elements, and used pieces to color my scene. I stamped a sentiment from Delicate Wreath, and framed the scene with a Diagonal Stitched Square.

I hope I have helped with ideas for you with this fabulous Essentials 3 Release. Thanks so much for joining me today.
