May 2026 Challenge: Striking Stripes
Happy Sunday, Pinkfresh fans! 🌼 We loved seeing all your beautiful entries from last month, and we’re so excited to kick off a brand-new challenge. Whether you enjoy scrapbooking, cardmaking, journaling, or mini albums, everyone is invited to join in!
The theme for May is Striking Stripes! From bold and graphic to soft and subtle, stripes offer so many creative possibilities. You can stencil or ink blend them, cut them from colored or inked cardstock, go for thick or thin lines, straight or diagonal designs, or even use patterned papers with stripe elements—anything goes as long as stripes take center stage!
Quick reminder: You can enter up to 3 new, never-before-seen projects in each month’s challenge.
Check out yesterday’s post for the March challenge winners and Top 3 Projects. Maybe you will be featured next! Ready to join the fun? Let’s get crafting!

We can’t wait to see how you interpret this fun and versatile theme! For those inspired by the color scheme, here are the best matching ink shades: Opulence, Sparkling Rose, Coral Reef, Olive, and Summer Shower
✨ Remember: ✨
Our monthly challenge is an Anything Goes Challenge: While the theme and colors are here to inspire you, feel free to enter any NEW project that primarily uses Pinkfresh Studio products. Whether you use the theme, the colors, both or none—it’s up to you. At the end of the day, we just want you to get crafty and have fun!
Let’s see what you create! 💛
