Hello everyone!!

I picked up the Pinkfresh Studio Joyful Day product suite in a Black Friday sale. After passing on a beautiful leafy Stamptember collaboration back in 2023 (the one that got away!), I seem to have acquired MANY of their leafy products in 2025!

When I saw how the four stencils worked, I wasn’t too sure how best to use them… then I saw an amazing card on the Pinkfresh website  The designer used a darker shade at the opposite end of each section of leaf – something that I would never have thought of doing but which gave an amazing impression of depth!

I chose another combo from my new inspiration book and got blending. It took a little while and I need a bit more practice, but I like how the leaves turned out! I added a few sequins and a sentiment from the Fluttering Butterflies set to complete my card.

This is my second project that I’m entering into the January Pinkfresh Studio monthly challenge. The theme for the month is ‘Year in Review’ – and I have chosen the June 2025 theme of Rainbow Reverie!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone!!

Another day, another Pinkfresh card! Today’s new and unused product suite of choice is the Stylized Florals die and stencil product suite.

I love Pinkfresh’s die/stencils combos – they make it super easy to create beautiful ink-blended die cuts as the stencilling/blending is done before the die cutting where those fabulous little details are also cut into the image.

I chose a fabulous colour palette from my colour book, pulled a lot of Pinkfresh inks and got blending! Before I cut the images I added some gold splatters. This set makes creating the floral swags very easy because once the die cutting is completed, you just have to adhere the images onto two branches that provide the base layer. No agonising over the configuration! Yay!

The background was made using the Pinkfresh Gatsby die which I got free with this order… and which may have contributed to me placing the order!!

The sentiment is by Creative Expressions.

Hi everyone!!

Another day, another Pinkfresh card! Today’s new and unused product suite of choice is the Garden Bouquet set which I picked up deeply discounted in an amazing Black Friday sale.

I wanted a bright and cheery card to a friend and totally stepped outside my comfort zone with the orange and yellow colour combo! I added an Altenew vase and adhered the images to a background panel that I had cut using the Charming Stitched Florals coverplate die, which I bought at the same time.

I had originally centred the vase and wasn’t going to add a sentiment. Then I decided to move the image to the left which opened up a great spot for a small sentiment – this one is by The Greetery.

Not much dimension on this card – just a few layers and stickles rather than gems. I really don’t know what Royal Mail is doing with these cards but at Christmas, all gems on every single card I received had been forced through the envelope (it’s quite a testament to the glue used that they were still in situ I suppose!).

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!!

Back to my recent Pinkfresh Studio purchases today and I’ve chosen the cheerful image from the Humbled and Grateful product suite. I had a lot of fun colouring this image in a slightly different way today because I decided to focus the colour at the ends of the petals – I really like how it turned out!

I adhered it to a panel that I had cut with the Stitched Diamonds Coverplate die (another Black Friday bargain!) and added a sentiment that was lurking in my sentiments box.

It’s a little early in the month for me to commit a project to the January Pinkfresh Studio monthly challenge but as we can add three entries I’m going to link it up. The theme for the month is ‘Year in Review’ – and I have chosen the April 2025 theme of Floral Frenzy!

Thanks for stopping by!
