Welcome to week 25 of our 2021-22 Colour Creations blog hop! Tonight we are showcasing Mango Melody, a vibrant orange from the Brights colour collection.
Although the dominant colour on my card is Mango Melody, as they say on Sesame Street, “This card is brought to you by the Adhesive Sheets and the Artistic Dies”!
By adding an adhesive sheet to my Basic White card stock BEFORE die cutting the large leaf die several times, I’ve turned this die cut into a sticker. This makes it super easy to chop these branches up and adhere and easily reposition the leaves to the Mango Melody cardstock layer. There’s no fiddly glueing or worrying about glue showing on the cardstock.
Here’s another photo of my Mango Melody card, showing how this colour can either yellowy orange or a darker orange from different angles or in different lights.
Now it’s time to hop on over to our next participant, the lovely Andrea Sargent – I can’t wait to see what Andrea has made this week!

I’ll be back with another Christmas card next Monday. In the meantime, wherever you are in the world, stay safe, stay calm … and keep on crafting xxx
Very dramatic look with the white leaves on a bright bold colour. A little ray of sunshine.
Adhesive sheets for the win with all these lovely leaves on your card, Cathy. I love the black panel with white embossed sentiment (love that font) and creates a lovely dramatic effect using black and white with Mango Melody xx
Oh wow. I love your Thank you card Cathy. The white and black against the Mango Melody is quite dramatic. Aren’t the Adhesive Sheets wonderful to use with fine die cuts. I usually forget to add them prior to die cutting and regret it later. I loved your Sesame Street reference. Xxx
Striking is definitely word of the day for this card! It’s gorgeous, and the pop of black really makes the card sing.
Oh wow, Cathy … your card is simply striking! I love how you’ve showcased Mango Melody, whilst also making those beautiful die cuts the star of your card. Love the Sesame Street reference; it made me laugh. 🙂
A gorgeous ‘thank you’ card, Catherine. The white and black against the Mango Melody background is just so striking! The white embossed sentiment is a standout! Just beautiful.
