November 2026 Challenge: Cozy Vibes & Gratitude

Happy Sunday, Pinkfresh fans! November is here, and we're embracing all the little things that make this time of year so special! We loved seeing your beautiful creations for last month's challenge and can't wait to see what you come up with next. As always, this challenge is open to all papercrafters, including cardmakers, scrapbookers, and anyone who loves getting creative with paper!

Our November challenge theme is Cozy Vibes & Gratitude! 🍂 Think warm colors, cozy textures, heartfelt sentiments, and all the things that make you feel thankful. You could create a card to let someone know how much you appreciate them, scrapbook your favorite fall memories, incorporate our challenge color scheme, or use images like mugs, candles, cozy blankets, and autumn foliage. There are so many ways to interpret this theme!

Our newest Gather & Bloom release has some wonderful products that fit this challenge perfectly! We've linked a few product ideas at the end of this post to help spark your creativity, but you're welcome to use any Pinkfresh Studio products you already have in your stash. We can't wait to see what cozy, heartfelt projects you share with us!

Quick reminder: You can enter up to 3 new, never-before-seen projects in each month’s challenge.

Check out yesterday’s post for the October challenge winners and Top 3 Projects. Maybe you will be featured next! Ready to join the fun? Let’s get crafting!

For those inspired by the color scheme, here are the best matching ink shades: Persimmon, Peony, Sweet Mustard, Sage, Lush Forest, Candy Violet.

✨ Remember: ✨
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!

Let’s see what you create! 💛
