This month’s Pink Fresh Studio Challenge theme is Tone-on-Tone & Monochrome Magic. ✨ Pick a single color and bring it to life by layering different tones and shades—or explore the tone-on-tone technique for added depth and dimension. To spark your creativity, we’ve provided a color palette to choose from—just pick one hue as your star and let it shine!
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!
My card today would fit into the Anything Goes Challenge but I feel it can also fit into the Monochromatic Magic theme as I have used purples and grey colours with a touch of silver for a soft and subtle colour palette.
My Project
My card is a standard side folding 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ card with a twist. I have trimmed the front panel down and added a lace border and a grey plaid strip tone on tone card to the front panel. I have hot foiled the Magnificent Magnolia image on white cardstock and coloured it with purple and grey inks. I added some purple inks to the leaves to keep with the tone on tone theme and then added it over the front edge.
For the inside back of the card I have used the Magnificent Magnolia Press Plate to add some interest on the panel by using grey ink on the grey card to tie in with the plaid front and floral image.
I added silver accents with the lace on the front panel and also with the base layer of the sentiment panel on the inside back panel. The sentiment has been reverse hot foiled as well to allow it to stand out on the white background.
Finally, I have added silver pearls to the front and back of the card as shown.
