Hello, Pinkfresh friends! Hope your week is off to a great start! It’s TaeEun here today with a thank you card. The October challenge was my inspiration for this card.

The Pinkfresh Studio October challenge is all about Fall Leaves! I made a stenciled Leafy Background and added some die cut branches and gold hot foiled sentiment. I picked three colors from the challenge color palette to stencil my background. The colors I chose are an unusual mix for a Fall card. But they match surprisingly well together! 

I started off by stenciling the Leafy Background in Lavender, Ocean Breeze and Marigold. After the stenciling was done I cut a circle from the center of the panel using a small die from the Fancy Circles die set.To add a purple circle mat to the Fancy Circle piece, I cut a solid circle from some white cardstock and ink blended it in Lavender. 

I adhered the negative die cut background panel on a white cardbase, added the purple circle panel to the center and foam mounted the circle panel which was cut from the stenciled background on it. 

I cut two Leafy Branches, once from some white cardstock and the second one from some gold cardstock. I cut the white one at the middle and added the branches to the right edge of the circular panel as shown in the picture. 

The Sentiment was hot foiled in gold using the Sentiment Suite Thank You Hot foil plate. I cut it using the Sentiment Suite Thank You die and foam mounted it on the center of the card. 

Lastly I finished off the card with some Gold Metallic pearls.

I hope I was able to inspire you to play along at the October 2022 challenge! One cardmaking entry and one memory-keeping entry will receive a $50 gift card to the Pinkfresh Studio Store! The two winners will be randomly selected based on these two categories.
