Leaf Circle Thanks


There is a new challenge over on the Pinkfresh Studio blog, and I thought I'd give it a try.  For the October 2026 challenge, the theme is Fall Foliage, and they gave us the following colors as inspiration: Clementine, Begonia, Regal Kiss, and Spanish Moss along with Black and Gold.  

I pulled out those ink colors and did some ink blending on regular white cardstock.  Then I pulled out my Floral Circles and die cut my ink blended panels with the leafy circles and then glued them to similarly sized black circles.  Next, I die cut the Thanks (Basic Sentiments set) from another ink blended panel.  After I ran a black cardstock panel through my Empress with the Stitched Diamonds coverplate, I adhered the three circles (the middle is on foam tape) and the Thanks.  I really wanted to add some gold splatter but these ink blended die cuts are so vivid and striking against the black cardstock.  I didn't want to take the focus away from these gorgeous fall colors.

Have you played in the Pinkfresh challenges?  Check them out and give it a whirl!
