I had so much fun digging through my stash of Pinkfresh Studio products -
new, and old!
This second take on their beautiful inspiration for February 2022
starts with the gorgeous Stitched Scallop Rectangles cut from a deep red card stock. I kept the whole thing intact with a strip of double-sided tape on the back - handy for sticking it to my A2 card base.
Next up, the first thing I ever won from Pinkfresh - sadly I don't think they offer any more - this gorgeous heart die called Now is the Time. The detail is amazing!
Then another little stitched heart in pink* embellished with a sweet little bloom from
their Pretty Paisley set - also where this sweet itty bitty sentiment came from. A dash of gold metallic pearls, and a snippet from the Dainty Blossoms and done.
The whole card has a bit of 'folk art' look to me - and I love it! Hope they do, too!
I have had such fun 'shopping my stash' for a few challenges this week. I hope it encourages you to take another look at what you have in house!

ReplyDeleteClever girl. All those Pink Fresh products dovetailing into this lovely Val-(or Gal)entine. You've even used all the colors of the inspiration board. That filigree blue heart is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWhat a striking card, Michele. Well done.
ReplyDeleteAll of the die cutting is fabulous...bright and bold!
ReplyDeleteYou have had a busy and very productive week, Michele! Another beautiful entry for Pinkfresh! What a pretty heart!
ReplyDeleteI love aqua and red together and the gold kicks it up a notch! You've married the old and new together perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI went right on eBay and found the heart die... you know I just have to have things. Gorgeous card. I so love the little bit of gold both embossed and blinged.
ReplyDeleteThose PF products look great all layered together, Michele. Beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteoooh, what a sweet valentine colour combo Michele, it's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYou ARE a smart shopper of your stash, Michele! This is gorgeous and a wonderful combination of die cuts! I saw Bonnie's card which was made mostly of her snippets last night and I thought I should go through my stash. And today, you inspired me to do it more!

This is so different from your other PF challenge card but just as gorgeous! Keeping that deep red panel of die-cuts altogether was genuis!
