Colour Combo Blog Hop - May

Welcome to my first hop with Colour Combo Blog Hop.
I am so excited to be a part of colour challenges as they
make you use colours you wouldn't normally use together.
There are 8 including myself hopping today, so buckle up
and get ready for the colour ride of your life...
Hope you are inspired by this colour combination...If so give it a try.
You may have started with me or you may have
just joined me from Tracey Lewis's blog

 Pear Pizzazz, Pool Party and Peekaboo Peach are all colours that are I use regularly
BUT not very often together.  Wonderful colours aren't they?

Peekaboo Peach is leaving our colour collection at the end of May...

Little bit sad about that BUT don't worry there are plenty of new ones to replace it.

So I was at a loss what to make until I saw the inspiration from this picture
in the current catalogue PG 131, sitting side by side I knew it would work.

Where does your inspiration come from?

Then I started looking at designs and found one
in the soon to be released catalogue...I can't show you the inside of the catalogue yet,
BUT if you are Demo you can see it on PG 19, if you are a customer the
New Annual Catalogue will go LIVE June 1.

Sorry that the photo colour is a bit off today we have a gloomy day,
and that you cannot really see the texture on the background layer.

 Full Instructions on how to make my card

to create your card base.

Step 2 Cut Peekaboo Peach cardstock to 10cm x 14.3cm.

Step 18 Adhere this banner over the top of your ribbon.
This is what your card should look like... Hope you like it!!!

I just whipped up a quick card using the Babywipe Technique
and these 3 colours...OMG!!! These colours look AMAZING together.
You simply add drops of re-inkers onto a folded baby wipe and using any stamp
you create your own coloured impression.  Added some leftover pieces from the
above card and YAY!!! another finished card... I think I will give these to my team <3
