Colour Creations: Mango Melody

 Hi!


Mango Melody sounds very tropical, doesn't it? I tell you what, I could do with some tropical right about now! It's been cold, wet and gloomy here for days, and we are only a month away from the start of summer. Brrr! I will have to be content with the colour Mango Melody, which is the feature colour for this week's Colour Creations Blog Hop.


I'm using another Brian King colour combo this week, which pairs Mango Melody with Smoky Slate and Basic Black.  I was determined to use my Dots & Spots Die, as I purchased it a while ago, but have been yet to use it.

Doesn't it create an awesome background? The black really pops!

I pulled out my Tech Support stamp set to play with. I think it's the grey in the combo - I'm old enough to come from an era when all computers were grey and so it just goes with Tech Support. LOL! I really  love this sentiment, but I always seem to split it so that I have something appropriate to go on the inside of my card.

I roughly stamped the keyboard stamp on the Stylish Shapes circle on the front of my card, and then carried it over to the inside. I deliberately stamped the image on a lean - there's no way I'd get them all lined up and even without a massive amount of effort, so my trick is to do it deliberately wonky!

Thanks for stopping by, but please keep on jumping around our Blog Hop tonight - there's lots more to see, starting with the lovely Rachel Woollard.

Bye for now,

  1. Oh, I love what you are creating with this stamp set. I love your thinking by stamping on an angle too and the grey computers, LOL. Great colour combo, Tina, Black was a great choice!

  2. Love the colour combination and the "deliberately wonky" stamping, Tina - all my stamping looks fine when I stamp it, but then when I look at the photos it is always "un-deliberately wonky" - might have to try to be deliberately wonky from now on! That Tech support sentiment makes me smile every time.

  3. The Dots & Spots Die makes for a fantastic background, and I love the black peeking through. I'm older than you, so remember computers all being beige, LOL. Great colour combo to work with, Tina, on your fun card.

    1. I think you are correct - they were beige, not grey. Maybe I'm thinking of game consoles instead?
