Welcome to another CTMH Product Spotlight Blog Hop! This month we are featuring color...specifically the wide range of colors that Close To My Heart has to offer in cardstock, markers, inks, and embellishments. If you came from Wendy's blog, welcome. If you are just starting here, then keep going, your next stop is at the bottom of my post and you will circle back here when you have gone through all the participants this month.
CTMH offers 60 different colors to choose from, each grouped into seasons. Each of the colors within that season coordinate beautifully with each other...but have you ever mixed and matched your seasons together? Unlikely color combinations can sometimes lead to that wow! factor you were looking for. Don't be afraid to play with a little color.
Last year, Jeanette Lynton, the founder of CTMH, featured different color combos each Monday on her blog. You can check out all the great combos she created here. I chose one of those color combos to feature today. The combination of Tulip, Juniper, Cocoa and Desert Sand gave me just the right pop of color I needed for this card:
I love how the colors blend and lend a deep, sophisticated feel to the card. I hesitated creating this card to share with you only because the stamp sets that I used are all retired. I decided to use it in the end to make a point that when you see a stamp you love...you need to snatch it up. These sets are among my most used for pretty much every occassion. If you have them in your stash...pull them out and give them some love. I used Cottage Floral, Curly Greetings and the background was created with Magic and Serendipity.
Your next stop is Corina...head on over and see what wonderful color combos she has to share with you today.
Thanks for stopping by -
