The sneak peek for today involves new Designer Series Paper, a new stamp set & new framelits.
It is difficult to get a good photo of Melon Mambo. It is more mellow than it appears in the picture. Okay, on to the sneak peeks! First, the sentiment is from Layering Love – available June 1, 2016. No fussy cutting for this girl. The Sweet & Sassy Framelits (available June 1, 2016) are a fun new set that will create beautiful layers. This is a phenomenal set with 15 dies! Yippee – let the layering magic begin.
The base card is Melon Mambo which is layered with Basic Black Cardstock & Pop of Pink SpecialtyDesigner Series Paper. The color palette makes for a dynamic contrast. A strip of Melon Mambo Cardstock is embossed with the Happy Heart Textured Impressions Embossing Folder & placed near the top of the dsp.
The final touch is a trio of Melon Mambo Candy Dots added to balance the strip of embossed card stock.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Remember that if you have any questions about my card, I am only an email away & I love to chat with my blog readers.

I love the card for the layout and stripes etc. It is just plain fun. I need to get over this dread of the mambo thing. I guess in my thinking it is just the wrong color. Melon to me is more orange colored like a cantaloupe or muskmelon. Not a hot pink. This color is not even watermelon colored. To me it sounds like it would be more the flamingo color than the new color is. I know that is goofy thinking but that is the only way I can come up with it. So, my little brain is calling it a different color and it can cope with that! Now I am trying to decide which is my favorite aspect – the candy dots, the embossed hearts or just the script on the heart’s sentiment? The next question for my little brain to ponder – are they going to price the framelits out of my price range? True, you will get more bang for the buck but I have to justify the outlaying expense.
Oh well, questions for another time for now I will just smile and enjoy the hot pink and black card. Fun and colorful! Love the layering!
I love black and pink together. The embossed heart strip makes it pop!
