Rainbow Smile Card

This is a fun little card that I created to enter into the Pink Fresh monthly challenge for September. The theme is rainbow so I created a simple background using rainbow foil that would showcase that amazing smile die. I think that the smile die is my favourite word die from Pink Fresh! I use it so much in both my scrapbook layouts and cards.

Rainbow Love Scrapbook Layout

This is an 8x8 layout that I made to add to my daughters Great Grandmother memory album. In order to keep me on task to finish my kids albums (before they are 50) I am choosing to create pages for each of the kids following a Pink Fresh Challenge. 
This week I created this layout page following the theme rainbow in the September Pink Fresh Studio Stamps monthly challenge. I used the free digital cut file to create the title for the page. I also used the amazing dainty blossoms dies to cut those gorgeous florals. I can’t believe what great cuts those dies made. I love dies that cut out super delicate items with ease!

Pink Fresh Floral card

This card came together right away, however I refused to stick it all down thinking that it wasn’t quite right. But I finally felt ok with it and stuck it down exactly how I had planned it all along. How crazy is that?!
I used the Pink Fresh inks for the first time (I treated myself while at a local scrapbooking store). What amazing inks these are! The background heart paper came from my Let’s Stay Home paper pad and that sentiment strip came from the ephemera pack. 
I know exactly who I will be sending this card too.

Pink Fresh Rainbow floral layout

I had a chance to play in my craft area tonight and this was the layout I came up with. 
I just had to document one of our many trips to the nursing home to see our 105 year old grandmother who (pre Covid) we use to visit 2-3 times a week minimum. Now we are unable to visit until we are no longer a “community of concern”. One of the many amazing nurses snapped this photo from inside while we were visiting and sent it to me. Technology has definitely been a saving grace for us during this tough time. Lots of phone chats through the window. 
I used the collection Let’s Stay Home which I just recently was able to pick up from my local scrapbook store. I really enjoy this collection. I also cut some flowers from some of the papers as well. And for the first time ever I bought the ephemera packet that goes with this set. I have never bought those before - but after seeing everyone using them I decided to get it to give it a try. I am quite happy with how it all came together. 
My background is created using those gorgeous Pink Fresh Studio watercolours.

Pink Fresh Floral card 1

Today I am sharing a card that I created for the Pink Fresh August monthly challenge. Following the prompt of florals this was a card that I created using a free cut file found on the Pink Fresh Studio Fan Page on Facebook. Of course I enjoyed using those amazing Pink Fresh Studio Water colors to color the beautiful cut file.

MFT Summer School Day 4: Ombré

Day 4’s homework assignment was all about ombré (which I love). I used the lovely sea foam type color and made this card super simple using just 1 strip of ribbon in the darkest shade and then the 3 sentiments using the MFT happy die.  I do have to say that whenever I get a freebie from MFT I find that it is an absolute treasure! The happy die was a free add on when I spent a certain amount and It is easily one of my go to sentiment dies! Love love love this die!


I also really like this gorgeous ribbon. It is so sparkly and glittery- I think it needs a close up.




So there you have it! I know that I did not post these homework assignments in the proper order but I did it and greatly enjoyed my week of homework to be able to say:

MFT Summer School Day 2: Rainbow

I decided to do something a bit different for this days homework assignment. I used the MFT floral die Fresh Cut Flowers to cut a bunch of the flowers (no stems) from the 7 rainbow colors ROYGBIV and then placed them on my card. I then cut some leaves to help balance things out and finish off the card. My son pointed out to me that there is no black in a rainbow. Sadly I do have to agree with him that in the photo the Indigo coloured flower does appear to look black - but honestly in person it looks much better.





I will be entering this the the following as my homework for day 2.
