Bits Blitz February 2026 – Day 7

Happy Saturday friends!

Well I did it! One whole week of using up my bits! I must say that I’m pleased that I can get back to creating bits now – it’s quite a challenge coming up with designs that are still ‘me’ while using lots of bits!

I actually have two cards to share today:

First up is the card I created with the reject card base from my Day 3 card. While making that card, I felt that I had stuck the Altenew Linear Crossroads a little too high for die cuts that I had chosen to use. I didn’t want to waste it – it would be wrong when the whole point of this week is to address my unused piles rather than add to them. So, I chose a branch from the Pinkfresh Sakura product suite and added a sentiment and some stickles for a CAS and importantly Royal Mail-able card for a crafty friend.

Next up is a card using the Pinkfresh Studio Flowers for the Soul washi images. I added the Birch Press Design Calen die to my card base and some trim from the Heritage Lace die set. The sentiment is from the Simple Joys set.

Thanks for stopping by!

Bits Blitz February 2026 – Day 6

Hi there!

It’s Day 6 of LucieG’s Bits Blitz! Day 6 already! It’s been a great relied to finally use my bits this past week – it may sound odd but I can feel the burden of past crafty me being lifted! I can start to look forward and I am so looking forward to colouring images and yes, creating a fresh pile of bits!

Today I used some die cut washi images from Pinkfresh Studio’s Whimsical Blooms product suite with a fabulous frame die that I picked up in the recent Sizzix sale. The frame reminded me of a fabulous older Taylored Expressions embossing folder called Weathered, so I pulled it out and used it for my background! The sentiment is from the Enchanting Flora product suite.

Bits Blitz February 2026 – Day 5

Hi there!

It’s Day 5 of LucieG’s Bits Blitz!

I’m so happy to report that EVERYTHING on this card (apart from the glitter bow and dots) came from my bits pile!

However, this card was not easy for me. I find arranging die cut pieces extremely difficult and I spent AGES filling the heart with different permutations of images from the Pinkfresh Studio Bloomscape suite. I’ve started taking photos of each possible design and even when I decided on a way forward, I tweaked it as I assembled it!

I wanted to create floating images so I added a layer of acetate behind the heart window and then mounted the panel onto an acetate card. There’s a LOT of foam tape on this card – definitely not one for the Royal Mail!

It was almost impossible to take photos of this card, but I git there in the end!

Bits Blitz February 2026 – Day 4

Hi there!

It’s Day 4 of LucieG’s Bits Blitz!

Today’s bits of choice are from the Pinkfresh Enchanting Flora product suite! This was a wonderful set of images to colour when I got it, but I think I got caught up in the rush of Christmas because I never used them on a card. I kept adding images to this card and ended up using all but one of my stamped images! Even then though it was a struggle because I kept wanting to save some for ‘later’…. which is exactly how I got myself into the bits overload in the first place!

That fabulous background is by Tim Holtz for Sizzix and I used a Waffle Flower Studio sentiment to complete my card.

Bits Blitz February 2026 – Day 3

Hi there!

It’s Day 3 of LucieG’s Bits Blitz which I feel I should rename LucieG’s Pinkfresh Bits Blitz because once again I have used up Pinkfresh bits!

The images are from the Keepsakes from the Heart and Sweet Blossoms product suites.

I used the Altenew Linear Crossroads die to ground my image and a sentiment by The Greetery.

Thanks for stopping by!

Bits Blitz February 2026 – Day 2

Hello!

It’s Day 2 of my Bits Blitz which I talked about in this post.

Today, I decided to make one more entry for the current Pinkfresh Studio monthly challenge which has a theme of ‘Geometric Genius’.

I used the Garden Trellis background die that I got free with an order last year and added some bits from the Flowers for the Soul products suite that I remember creating as soon as I received it. Don’t know why I never got round to using them!

The sentiment is from the Hope You Are Smiling set.

Thanks for stopping by!
