Stampin' Up! Around the Bend Birthday Card

Hi and welcome to another round of the colour creations blog hop. 
For this weeks blog hop, we are focusing on the colour, Blackberry Bliss.
If you remember, from previous years I like to work with the color coach Stampin' Up! provides to add a challenge to my card creations.
This week, I have chosen blackberry bliss, lost lagoon and flirty flamingo from the colour coach to work with. 

I used Favoured Flowers DSP from the clearance rack for the main part of my card this week along with the Around the Bend dies. The sentiment is from Simply Said stamp set and I used rhinestone basic jewels to finish my card. I used the lost lagoon and the flirty flamingo in the flowers which is why I picked this colour combination over any of the others. For a colour I really struggle with my card came together quite quickly. I was most surprised and very pleased!

This colour combination is so unexpected but it works so well! Who knew Calypso Coral would look good with Blackberry Bliss? You are right to be please with this gorgeous card.

What a gorgeous card Ros. I love the colours chosen but especially love the use of the bendy dies to create the decorative edge!

[Kathryn Ruddick]

Great card Ros. That DSP is perfect for the design of the card and showing off Blackberry Bliss.

[CHRISTINE BLAIN]

I really like the look of the "holey" detail on the Around The Bend edge die-cut, on the highly patterned DSP, Ros. This unusual colour combination works really well on your lovely card.

Stunning card Ros

[Theresa Gerrard]

Unexpectedly great colour combo Ros and great idea to use the paper from the clearance rack to feature Blackberry Bliss. You should be very please with the outcome!

[Kate Morgan]

So pretty, Ros, with the Around the Bend dies creating that lovely decorative edge. That geometric patterned paper is beautiful as the backdrop for your flowers and sentiment. Lovely card!

[Rachel Palmieri]

What an unexpected colour combo but it works! Nice to see those dies in use again too.
