Welcome to the July challenge at Pinkfresh Studio! You all created such amazing projects for last month's challenge, and we can't wait to see what you create this month! This challenge is for ALL papercrafters - including scrapbooking, cardmaking, minis, journals, notebooks & more!

If you haven't checked it out yet, we featured our Top 3 Cards & Layouts, plus the prize winners from the June challenge on last week's post! Who knows...maybe it will be YOU this month! You never know unless you play along! :)

June is all about the SHIMMER & SHINE!

Anyway you would like to add a bit of shimmer or shine to your projects works - it can be hot foiling, heat embossing, foiled paper, bling, sparkly splatters, glitter, metallic paste - or anything else you can dream up! Don't forget that many of our diecut ephemera packs come pre-foiled, and those count too!

The following ink shades are the best matches for the colors in the challenge: Ballet Slipper, Warm Buff, Olive, Evergreen, and Peach Fuzz.

As always you can use just the theme, just the colors, or use both for your projects! Here is some inspiration for you from our amazing team:
