Simon Monday Challenge - Think Pink

Here is Simon Monday Challenge - Think Pink, below is the challenge photo:

And here is the card I created to attend this challenge:

I used Simon Says Stamp's Wirework Hearts 3D embossing folder to create a background blended with pink and purple ink pads. I also highlight the embossed area with a touch of Altenew's Pearl Shimmer Relief Paste. For the card front, I white embossed the flowers (from Penny Black's Enchantingly stamp set) on the heat resistant acetate and sandwiched it with a slim rectangle card base. I stenciled the faux stitches with Concord & 9th' Kristina's Finishing Touches stencils set, and stamped "happy birthday to you" with Avery Elle's Handwritten Notes stamp set. Below is another look of the card when you open it:

Here is Pinkfresh Studio October 2026 Challenge - Fall Foliage, below is the challenge photo:

 

And here is the card I created to attend this challenge:

I was inspired with Jennifer McGuire's clear card and created this partial clear card with Pinkfresh Studio's products. I stamped the foliage (from Pinkfresh Studio's Delicate Foliage stamp set) on white cardstock and used the matching stencils to blend in the colors. I also used the gold metallic pen to color some of the leaves. Then I used the matching die to cut out the foliage. I used a long oval die to cut out the bottom of white card base and sandwiched a clear acetate in between the card base and the oval border of white cardstock. I attached attached the die cut foliage on the front panel. I used Pinkfresh Studio's Charming Stitched Florals coverplate die to cut on a purple cardstock and attached it on the backside of the card. I gold embossed the greeting (from Pinkfresh Studio's Heartfelt Chapters stamp & die set) and die cut it out with the matching die. I attached the greeting on top of the card front. Finish the card by attaching some purple glitter gems on card front and on the acetate. Below is another look of the card:
