Colour Creations: Cajun Craze

 Hi!


Thanks for joining me for the new Colour Creations Blog Hop. This week we are making Cajun Craze the star of the show. It's a terracotta colour, which I don't use much. It's one of those colours that I don't reach for, but definitely has a space in the SU colour range.

I was recently convinced that I *had* to have the Stitched Greenery die, and now that I've used it, I think it was a good decision! It really adds an oomph to my Very Vanilla background.

I used Forever Fern on my main panel - don't the leaves look great in Cajun Craze? The sentiment is from Sweet Strawberry, and I snuck in the retired Stitched Shapes dies as a matt for the panel.

I used the same two stamp sets to complete the inside of my card. I was quite pleased with how my card turned out, even though I find Cajun Craze a bit of a tricky colour.

Next up on our Cajun Craze Blog Hop is the AWH Team leader, Claire Daly.

    The leaf stamped images with the stitched greenery die are a great combination. Purchasing the die was definitely a good decision.
