08.19.23 Pinkfresh Studio Go For It Stamp - As You See it Challenge

 Stayed up a little late as I wanted to ink up some of my newest Pinkfresh Studios lovelies.  


I found this challenge very intriguing.  I have never joined in before, so Hello to you if you happen to pop by!  Using FLORAL with the great Beautiful Blossoms Challenge - Yay!!! Also adding to the Colorful Options Yellow-Green!


Of course I focused on shades of yellow and built upon that.  These lovely blooms sang to me to be colored like the sun dances on them. 

















Pinkfresh Studio Supplies:

They are not the "newest" of the new.  Some are older sets and just new to me.


The upside of moving your family to be closer to other siblings and other family, downsizing and starting fresh, is embracing the new financially feasible and frugal lifestyle. LOL.... More humble, slower pace.  Eating at home more, stretching your dime.  Having to re-focus on what matters.  This happens in crafting too.  I am practicing narrowing my scope of "collecting."  


Unfortunately I had to take advantage of Ellen Hutson's retirement sale.  I am happy that she is shifting her focus on what matters most as well.  I am also glad that a lot of other people have begun to shift and change to realize that life is short, you live it once, live it to your fullest.  Do what matters to you, your heart.  Embrace following your dreams, your heart desires.

Oh wow, Kimberly, this is so fresh and lovely! Beautiful stems and coloring, and I love your vellum "shadow" behind! Those green embellies are the perfect finishing touch! Thanks so much for playing at As You See It!

I'm a huge fan of PFS and their dainty florals. These are so pretty and the bright yellow is cheerful, love the embossed background too! Thanks for playing along at The Beautiful Blossoms Challenge, we appreciate the support!

This is so fresh and summery, Kimberly! I love the florals and their vellum shadows, too, but I really like the quilted background, the patterned paper you chose, and your bold sentiment! Thanks for cooking up our recipe at As You See It Challenges!

Hello and welcome to AYSI! So glad you’ve found us, with your gorgeous creations to share. This one is just springtime on a card. The daffodils are darlings, so brightly coloured. The wee vellum shadows are a great touch. Thanks for sharing with us at As You See it.

This is a stunner for sure! The flowers are beautiful and look real and having the vellum behind really makes them pop! Combined with the arch and the embossing - your card is perfect! Thanks for joining us at As You See It!
