Welcome to October's Colour Combo blog hop! Our colours for today's hop are Coastal Cabana, Basic Gray and Real Red. My first thought was to create a Christmas card using the Penguin Place stamp set but my nephew loves penguins and I needed a card just for him!

Colour Combo Blog Hop - September

Hello! Welcome to September's Colour Combo Blog Hop. Autumn is my favourite time of year. Doesn't this month's colour combo of Blushing Bride, Cinnamon Cider and Mango Melody give off fall-ish vibes?
Thinking of fall had me looking over my stamp collection to see what one would be the best fit for these colours. After a few that might have worked (Enjoy the Moment and Tasteful Touches stamp sets), the Season's Blessings stamp set and Seasonal Basket dies ended up being the clear winner.

Hello and welcome to my blog in this month's Colour Combo Blog Hop. Our projects for this blog hop use Gray Granite, Bermuda Bay and Gorgeous Grape.
Have you tried the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder before? It was available in the Jan-Jun Mini Catalogue and has carried over to the Annual Catalogue. I went digging through my embossing folders yesterday wondering what one I should use. It was hard to pick between the Painted Textured and the Tasteful Textile embossing folders. The best thing to do when you cannot chose between which embossing folder to use is to make a sample of both in the colour you will use. Then you can put the embossed cardstock down and place the items (without gluing them down) over top to see which one you prefer. Add the piece you don't use to your stash so that it's ready to go or make a 2nd card using it while you have all the items out. Then you'll have a few cards ready to send out for the time when you need it!

Colour Combo Blog Hop - March

Welcome to March's Colour Combo Blog Hop! We are creating projects using Mango Melody, Petal Pink and Terracotta Tile this month.
These colours make me think of spring and it certainty feels like spring the past few days here in southeastern Ontario. And of course spring made me look ahead to seeing flowers. The most recent addition to my stamp collection was the Pretty Perennials stamp set with its assortment of flower stamps.
Thank you for stopping by! Next up in the hop you will visit Donna Lester.

Welcome to February's Colour Combo Blog Hop using Flirty Flamingo, Pacific Point and Soft Sea Foam. This one was a little tricky for me as I'm not a fan of Pacific Point! I posted a poll last week on Instagram and everyone else who voted likes it so maybe I'm in the minority? But it works so well with Flirty Flamingo and Soft Sea Foam so maybe I'm starting to like it more? Maybe. What do you think of Pacific Point?
Product List
Since today is Valentine's Day I wanted to share a card using the Nothing's Better Than stamp set. Each of the coloured panels measure 3-3/4" x 1-5/8". Stamp the images before adhering the panels to the card and when stamping them push the 3 panels together so that the stamped image overlaps multiple colours.
