Pinkfresh June 2019 Challenge




I was the lucky winner of a fabulous give-away from Pinkfresh Studios recently … the entire release of their fabulous Essentials collection of dies, and these fabulous jewels and crystals! 
Pinkfresh Studio May Essentials Release Blog Hop

Every set is amazing... I've used a few today to enter the June 2019 - Mix & Match Challenge.  I will be honest, though the big JOY is cut from Indigo Hills paper, that die is not from Pinkfresh Studios - it may disqualify my card, but since this is a 'new baby' card for first-time grandparents, that is truly the perfect word!  If you look very closely, you'll find the family in the little nest I've created within the O - three little jewels!

Here are the Pinkfresh products I've mixed & matched:
Braided Tag
Dainty Blossoms
Lacey Edgers 1
Fancy Label Frames for the tiny tag and
Pretty Paisley stamp set for the sentiment
Indigo Hills, and Felicity collections of papers

Ready for my little card?


Thanks for stopping by today … now I must get back to my butterflies, and bluebirds!  OH have you heard the news?  We have [as of now] over 100 Monarch caterpillars in different stages of their magical metamorphisms!!  AND four baby Bluebirds in the box!  I sure wish you all lived in my neck of the woods!

Oh my, how fabulous to have that happy package coming through the mail, Michele ... and what a delicious confection you created! You have such a wonderful eye for colour and detail and there's so much sweetness to take in here ... what a gorgeous card! There's my favourite word again, sooo beautifully 'dressed'! Great news about the butterflies and birds ... no doubt there'll be photo's shared at some point! Hugs, Anita :)

What a lucky win, Michele! You'll have loads of fun with all of the dies and crystals! Your little card holds a lot of JOY! How fascinating that you are raising butterflies and bluebirds! We've had some bluebird fledglings in our yard. They are so sweet with their spots! Don't see many Monarchs here though. Just once in a while.

Between your job as a cardmaker, naturalist and laundry, you must be busier than a one-armed paper hanger. But let's talk about this fantastic card. That Indigo Hills patterned paper is perfect with the "joy" diecut. Only you and your nature loving heart would think of adding that precious nest in the "O"...adorbs.

Marcia Hill said...

Oh how I love this sweet little card Michele! The shape, all the die cutting, the colors, your little family nest in the middle of the "O", the DSP,...I love it ALL!! :0)
