Monthly Challenges

May 2021 Challenge

May 2021 Challenge

Welcome to the May 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 April challenge on yesterday's post! Who knows...maybe it will be YOU this month! You never know unless you play along! :)

May is ANYTHING GOES!

This month our challenge is truly an anything goes challenge! As long as your project features predominately Pinkfresh Studio projects, link it up! This month is all about flexibility and enjoying the creative process.

We've picked colors from our ink colors, but they are just an example! You can use ANY COLORS you would like, as this is an ANYTHING GOES challenge. Check out our Cutfile Shop for some great inspiration, and we also have some great freebie cutfiles that you can use on your projects in our Facebook Friends Group. We would love for you to join, hang out and grab all our freebie cutfiles to use on your projects!


The sky is the limit, and we can't wait to see your challenge projects. This can include layouts, cards, tags, notebook spreads, mini albums, DIY decor...anything that is papercrafting related. As always, you are welcome to use just the theme, just the colors or mix them together and use both!

**CALLING ALL CARDMAKERS**

We are going to pick an additional winner of a $25 gift card code to our online shop to anyone who shares with us that they are sending some cards into Scrapbook.com's Cards for Kindness Initiative!

All you have to do is take a quick photo of you packing up your card(s), the package of your card(s) (don't forget to black out your address) or of you dropping it off at the post office/post office box. Here is how to share it: 

1. Blog about it, and post it as an extra link in the link list below.

2. Post it to your IG feed, or in your IG Stories. It is IMPERATIVE that you tag the follow accounts in your posts or stories: @pinkfreshstudio, @scrapbookcom, & @cardsforkindness_official. Also be sure to use the hashtags: #pinkfreshstudio & #cardsforkindness. Doing these items will make sure we see your entry on IG!!

Be sure to follow all directions given on the Cards for Kindness page. I know all our friends at Scrapbook.com will be so excited to receive your gorgeous cards! You get ONE additional entry for participating in our Cards for Kindness challenge, so please only do ONE post for it. Thank you!

Fun to have Anything Goes—thank you! Generic themes are great so everyone can play with the PFS products they have. I’m hoping to add some layering stencils to my stash soon.

I played with the Some Days Collection. The yellow patterned paper with the big bold numbers is sooooo awesome! It was hard for me to use it. I just wanted to hoard it. LOL

I had all the colors lined up, and ready to go, when my friend let me borrow her collection of your gorgeous layering stencils – oh yes, I have my own stash, too!
Hanging Garden was such a joy to ink – thanks, Marcia!
