Cheery Orange

Wow, it's a while since I've updated my poor little blog. I started making cards to order for friends & acquaintances and I find it leaves me little time to join in the challenges I love so much - or even to stop by my favourite blogs. When I saw this week's CASology challenge I decided I really needed to find time to play along because I love using orange on cards. I needed to make a couple of cards for my auntie's birthday, and this one features orange and hot pink. I love that combo.



I masked the card base to stamp my orange hexagons (from The Stamps of Life), but unfortunately some ink bled through. Any advice other than 'use more more post-its'? The sentiment is from WaltzingMouse.

Thanks for stopping by!

    This is so striking with the bold orange and sooo hot pink! Isn't it frustrating to get ink-bleed ... I eventually settled on masking tape instead of post-its ... as long as I'm careful lifting it off, it works really well. Anita in France

    Love the orange and hot pink together -such a fun card! Ink billed used to drive me nuts but I was finally told to try Eclipse masking tape and it works great! Thanks for playing along at CASology this week!

    Love this fun colour combination! And I guess I'm going to be trying masking tape - I find post it notes unreliable too! Thanks so much for playing along with CASology this week!
