I forgot to post..whoopsie! I created a page to document my parent’s 51st anniversary in 2018. I love to scrapbook pics of them. They are so cute together!

After being away from scrapbooking for two years I have returned and entered Januarys challenge, I chose Februarys challenge as my inspiration.

I attempted the September Layer it up Challenge. Thanks for hosting!

I attempted the September Lauer it up Challenge. Thanks for hosting!

Thanks for making this challenge so flexible! I went with April- Flowers because I adore the big floral in Nothing But the Best set. I used words from Beyond Happy. I love that you have matching dies for that wonderful sentiment set.

I always like January with all the challenges. Mostly because I sometimes play along but never photograph my cards or upload them. It gives me a 2nd chance. I like the challenge more than the posting part. Love the inspiration from everyone! So pretty! I think some themes in the future that would be fun are, wreaths, butterflies, nature, sympathy, birthday.

I was guided by a sketch in creating my layout. The stamp-die-foiling plate-stencil (although I didn’t use the stencil on my layout) set is very helpful in creating a cohesive design for my layout. I love the PFS patterned papers’ subtle color. Makes me want to add more of their patterned papers to my stash.

Enjoyed this challenge and using PinkFresh inks, stencils,, stamps, dies, and embellishments!

20 Jan 2024 Donna Phelan

This is a great Challenge, A Year In Review. I am pleased to say I have completed 3 more scrapbook pages! YAY! PFS make it soooo easy to make beautiful pages! Future Challenge? How about a true Anything Goes! Sparks would fly! lol Happy New Year!

18 Jan 2024 Cynthia Baldwin

Great challenge – thank you! I’m still catching up from last year’s scrapbook pages. <3

18 Jan 2024 Patricia Manhire

I am excited that I can use my favourite floral stencils and dies to make a very beautiful card with Pink Fresh Studio products.

18 Jan 2024 Karin @creakarts

What a great year was 2023 and how fun is this months challenge! My card is based on several months, March/April/August/September/October.

17 Jan 2024 Rita Kegg

Hi! That was hard work to figure out how to do this but I’m thinking I’ve done it all now. I posted a set of cards I made for my pastors wife on instagram for the April flowers challenge using painted peony mix. I posted a second entry making valentines cards in a box using painted dalhias, tuberose and painted peony mix. On instagram I have more pictures but couldn’t link more than one. I hope I can remember how I did this so I can do it again another month.

Some ideas for challengings would be Washi tape, other than a card, fancy fold cards and press plates. Thanks!

16 Jan 2024 Greta H

It’s always fun to review all the challenges and pick one to use for a January entry. I used a couple of my all time favorite PFS products: Lush Vines and Dainty Blossoms. Thank you for the continued challenges!

14 Jan 2024 Christine/aheartfeltcard

I entered my card and think it fits well with the August 23 challenge. I love your beautiful products!

14 Jan 2024 Milla

It’s my first time taking part, I loved the challenge! I used my newest Pinkfresh Studio stamp and went with April 2023 theme of flowers :)

13 Jan 2024 Sue Symens

So fun to look back through the challenge year. Rainbows are always a favorite color combo for me!

12 Jan 2024 Maria Giselle B.

Can you mix the challenges, e.g. use the March theme and November colors on a project? Thank you.

12 Jan 2024 Jennifer Ingle

I am excited to be joining the challenge this month! I pulled out some fun florals that I have been wanting to play with and I really loved the result!
