Colour Creations: Granny Apple Green

 Hi!


Welcome to a new week of the Colour Creations Blog Hop. This week we are featuring Granny Apple Green, a lovely green from the Brights colour family. I think it's my favourite of all of the SU greens (not counting Mint Macaron!).


I once again went with a Brian King colour combo. I loved the mix of bright colours - such a happy combination.

I've been wanting to try this fancy fold for a while - only I can't find a name for it! I got the instructions off Beth McCullough's blog, however, she didn't give it a name. It's some kind of gatefold, as you pull on both sides of the card to open it up. I used the Hostess Celebrate Everything DSP to decorate the card.

Here's a top view of the card, so that you can see the folds. Maybe it's some kind of double z gatefold card? If you know the name, let me know please!

Here is the inside of the card. I've stamped the card using one of my current favourite stamp sets, Simply Fabulous. I've also used my Stylish Shapes dies on the front of the card.

The nexts top in tonight's blog hop is my lovely friend, Rachel Palmieri. Make sure you jump on over to her blog to see the Granny Apple Green gorgeousness she has waiting for you.

    Granny Apple Green looks great with Polished Pink (a few of us had that idea!), and I like the little Highland Heather touches you've added, Tina. Great choice of paper to cover your card front!

    A gorgeous fancy fold card Tina. I love the fold - it is similar but different to something else I have seen, so I can’t help you with the name. I love your colour choices and the use of the DSP. Xxx

    What a clever fold - at first I couldn't work it out, but I'm glad you showed us! Great colour choice having that bold Polished Pink to go with the Granny Apple Green DSP.
