I'm so excited to be creating with these stunning products from Pigment Craft Co. As I mentioned in my video, this new Canadian company launched in March 2021 and I'd been coveting literally everything they've released! I decided to make two cards using the same products and colours to show how you can get two completely different looks. 

I started with the Delicate Floral Background Stamp and Stencil Bundle. On this first card, I stamped the background with black dye ink. Then I used a variety of blender brushes and the following ink colours to fill in the background with the coordinating stencils: Catching Rays, Bellini, Coral Cabana, Cummerbund and Daydream. All of these products are linked in the supply list below. The stencils are so perfect for days when you don't want to colour or maybe you're not keen on colouring to begin with. I just love the results!

I also used the Delicate Floral Fillers and Daydream ink to create a splattered look between the flowers. This was exactly what I was hoping for and it was perfectly controlled! Next, I used the Stacked Sentiments: Best Ever stamp set and Stacked Sentiments: Best Ever coordinating dies to create the floating sentiment.

First, I die cut the sentiment from black cardstock, then heat embossed best ever in white. I layered day using WOW Calypso embossing glitter but it was too sheer on its own so I added a second layer of white on top and added two more layers of Calypso on top. It's so sparkly and beautiful! The rest of the sentiment was stamped with black pigment ink on vellum and clear embossed.

For my second card, I stamped the Delicate Floral Background on kraft cardstock and used the following inks with blender brushes and the coordinating layering stencils: white pigment ink, Bellini, Coral Cabana, Samba and Daydream. I adore the look of white pigment ink on kraft and this colour combo would make a lovely holiday card!

This time, I used the best friend ever sentiment from the Stacked Sentiments: Best Ever stamp set and Stacked Sentiments: Best Ever coordinating dies. I love word dies and this set offers the perfect combination of multi-coloured stamping and die cutting. I stamped these words using Coral Cabana, Daydream and Bellini.

I re-cut the die from black and silver glitter cardstock and adhered them together by offsetting each layer to create shadows, allowing the sentiment to pop off the background. To finish, I trimmed the panels down and adding strips of cardstock as a contrast to the base and complement the sentiments.

I hope you were inspired by these products from Pigment Craft! Please continue reading to discover additional giveaways, gifts with purchase, new Canadian shops and a ton of crafty inspiration from my fellow Canadian YouTubers.
