Sara Mishler
Hello! I’m Sara and I'm from Western Pennsylvania. I am 40 years old and the mother of 2 boys and 3 dogs. I work at home, homeschool my boys, and take care of my elderly grandfather. I love to read, and I like to cook, but I’m not a fan of laundry or dishes! I also love being a creative artist in this industry! I like to try all.the.papercrafts and mixed media. I enjoy teaching what I’ve learned for the last 18 years I’ve been creating, mostly on my YouTube channel but I have also begun creating my own classes for my website. I’ve been a part of the community at A Cherry On Top since 2013 and can’t wait to get started!

XOXO Valentine's Day Card
Hello crafty friends! It’s Channin here and today I’m creating a bright and cheery Valentine’s card featuring several products from Pinkfresh Studio.
To create this card I first hot-foiled a panel of white cardstock with the Modern Design Blocks hot foil plate in Aura foil. I then foiled the leftover foil with the Solid hot foil plate onto white cardstock and then set the panel aside.
Next, I ink blended over the first panel with the Modern Design Blocks stencils and several Pinkfresh Studio inks (Clementine, Passion Fruit, Bubble Gum, Berrylicious and Raspberry Bliss). When I finished ink blending the panel I trimmed it down to 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” and adhered it to the front of an A2 top-folding white card base (4 1/4” x 11”; scored at 5 1/2”).
I then hot foil another panel of white cardstock with the Nested Rectangles hot foil plates in Aura. I then die cut the frame with the Nested Rectangles coordinating cuts and adhered the frame to the card front with foam adhesive.
Next, I die cut “XOXO” (both layers) out of white cardstock with the Jeff Alpha dies. I then adhered the layers together with foam adhesive and then adhered them to the card front. Next, I stamped a sub-sentiment from the Beyond Measure stamp set in Versamark embossing ink. I poured gold embossing powder over the sentiment and heat-set it. Next, I trimmed the sentiment down to a strip and then adhered it to the card front with foam adhesive.
I die-cut the second foiled panel with the smallest heart die from the Nesting Hearts Dies twice to create two gold hearts and adhered them to the card front with foam adhesive. Lastly, I finished the card by adhering two Sparkling Champagne Metallic Pearls to the hearts.
I hope you enjoyed my card. Thank you so much for stopping by!

Channin Pelletier
Hello! I’m Channin Pelletier and I live in sunny Arizona with my husband and our two sweet daughters. I’m a long-time stamper and paper crafter. I actually started paper crafting back in junior high by carving my own stamps from erasers to make handmade cards and scrapbook pages. However, over the years, cardmaking has definitely become my favorite crafty hobby! It’s difficult for me to nail down my style, I’m a bit of a chameleon! I love clean and simple designs, coloring flowers and critters, and even constructing interactive cards! But overall I love trying to come up with designs that are unique or unexpected!
I’d love it if you would check out my YouTube channel, Blog, Gallery, or follow me on Instagram!!
