*NEW* Pinkfresh - February release

Life Right now has a STRONG In a Creative Bubble Vibe - like it really looks like she designed it.  I like it, but it feels like someone copied her style.

I like a couple of pieces in the Happy Heart collection, especially those tiny alphas, but I like quite a lot of the Life Right Now collection. That will definitely be added to my wishlist.  I really like that they use ok, instead of okay on so many of the pieces as I usually end up tossing the pieces with okay unless I can easily cover/cut off the last two letters.  And I love that ticket paper.

Yep, Geralyn has co-designed collections for Pinkfresh for the past few years and regularly so. Usually one line in spring and the Christmas line. I'm 99% certain this is another case of her being on the design team. Her name will appear along the other designers when Pinkfresh reveal the line on their blog. Kelly Purkey had a wonderful line with Pinkfresh last year as well. They are not ripping off, they are literally paying them to bring their aesthetic to 12x12 lines. I love Pinkfresh for doing this!

I'm digging Life Right Now. The ephemera pack is a must for me but I need to start thinking whether I'd really need the paper or not. I've been extra minimalist lately. I love that this line covers so much, especially for pandemic life: mental health, self-care, road trips, up/down/just ok, food, binge-watching, home life. This is really smart and could constitute the basis for someone's yearly PL album, come to think of it. 

I'm not sure what pieces I'd snag from Life Right Now, but I like it way better than other releases we've seen posted so far! Also, I'd like to hug her for including purple.

From Happy Heart I like the floral ephemera and the mini alpha stickers.

Life Right now I love the colors - especially in the floral ephemera pack. The chipboard stickers and puffy stickers also caught my eye.

Plus the enamel dots always get me. One of my favorite ways to add a little something to a project.

I like the weekend wanderings paper for my millions of walks in the neighborhood since covid.

I love PF! Early on I was buying many of their lines, but these feel like so many of the others they’ve released in the past 2-3 years, heavily floral, heavily pastel, heavily pink. I wish they’d go back to the more abstract organic and geometric feel with unexpected color combinations they started with. The lines I am thinking off the top of my head are Super Cool and Indigo Hills. Those were useful for almost anything I had to scrap. Life Right Now feels very much like their recent “neutral” lines, so not a must for me.

It is weird to me that the more aware of gender spectrums and stereotypes the world becomes, the more stereotypical and typical our choices of products, in crafting and across the all retail options, are becoming. It seems as if we are moving backward, rather than progressing in offerings and options.

I really like a bunch of the papers from Happy Heart, but I just placed an order to ACOT yesterday. I'm going to see if my LSS can order the 12x12 pad for me. She doesn't usually order from PinkFresh for her store stock, but I think she still has access to it.

Thanks for the links!

That was my first thought - although the ephemera doesn't have the layers of graphics that Geralyn typically uses, the papers/designs certainly do feel like her.

And I'm doing a little happy dance - I like BOTH these lines. Somehow, even though pastel/spring isn't my normal vibe, PinkFresh really got it right! I'm also digging the PHRASES they've chosen for the ephemera - usable stuff. And that paper in "Life right now" that is all cut apart strips/phrases - love that.

I love the Happy Heart embellishments but the papers don't do anything for me.

I like the Life Right Now papers better but the embellishments don't appeal to me that much.

Happy Heart is pretty but I'm not usually drawn to pastels. 
The colors in Life Right Now are calling my name. I'd buy a lot of that collection. 

I LOVE Happy Heart!! ❤️ I would definitely buy that one if it were a digital kit.

Not into Happy Heart at all. Life Right Now is ok but I would love to see more examples of how people use that style of product (aka very graphic, large word prints, etc). I shy away from PF because I’m not really sure how to use it.

I like the colors of life right now. I LOVE the slow days cut apart ticket paper, but I’m still going to hold off until I move ( or at least try to )
