Welcome to week 26 of our 2021-22 Colour Creations blog hop! Tonight we are showcasing Melon Mambo, a vibrant pink from the Brights colour collection.
Inspired by the colour combination I loved on some now retired Designer Series Paper, this week I’ve paired Melon Mambo with Blushing Bride, Night of Navy and Basic White.

The Night of Navy Cardstock layer really makes the white and both the pinks pop, and using the Pierced Blooms dies makes for a very quick and easy card. I love making this type of card – it’s sort of like creating a 3D DSP!
The only stamping on my card is the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set – I chose this sentiment because it fitted perfectly into the the sentiment die cut from the Pierced Blooms dies.
Classic Matte Dots are Adhesive-backed enamel dots with a matte finish that come in four colours: Basic Black, Basic Gray, Very Vanilla and Basic White, which is the colour I’ve used on my card today.
The beauty of this design is that it can be made in any colour combination and for any occasion, depending on the sentiment you use.
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Kate Morgan – I can’t wait to see what Kate has made this week!

Pierced blooms are a gorgeous choice, and look so happy sitting on Navy.Beautiful card Cathy.
A gorgeous “3D DSP” card Cathy. Navy, White and Pink x 2 is a gorgeous colour combo and works so well with the Pierced Blooms. The new Matte Dots are brilliant on the flowers. Delightful. Xxx
Aww, Cathy, I love these Pierced Blooms dies and totally adore your colour combination. Blues, pinks and white is just perfect and I love those matt dots too!
Striking and stunning card Catherine, Melon Mambo really pops on the navy
Oh, how wonderfully pretty! The pink and white flowers look amazing against the navy background. A really gorgeous card.
Such a beautiful colour combination, Cathy … the navy sure does make the pinks pop. I just love the Pierced Blooms Dies, and love the way you have used them. Gorgeous texture!
Gorgeous and stunning, Catherine. My all time favourite die set! Snap on using the new matte dots, and in white too! Love this card.
