Welcome to today’s challenge with the Crafty Collaborations group! If this is your first time hopping with us, we are thrilled to have you here. We are a collective of demonstrators from the USA, Canada, and beyond, sharing our inventive ideas to spark your creativity. If you’ve hopped with us earlier, we’re delighted you’ve returned to soak up more inspiration. And if you’re new here, Welcome! Let’s dive right into the hop!
Today’s hop is a color challenge. We are using a color scheme.

Since Pale Papya and Pacific Point are retired, we are allowed to exchange them with another color, we also have the option to use all of the colors or just a few of them.
I am using the Les Shoppes 12″x12″ Designer Series Paper. The colors in the paper are perfect for this challenge. For the Pale Pappya, I am using Petal Pink as its substitution, the image contains Balmy Blue which is the substitution for the Tahitian Tide and Pacific Point colors.



Step-by-step instructions:
- Cut Petal Pink card base to 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4″
- Cut a piece of designer series paper 4″ x 5-1/4″ and adhere to the card front.
- Cut another piece of designer series paper 4″ x 2″ and adhere half an inch down from the top.
- Now choose the house and fussy cut it out and with dimensionals, add it to the card front.
- Add three 2023-2025 In Color Dots in the color of Copper Clay.
- Using the Cajun Craze ink pad, ink “Happy Birthday” from the Go-To Greetings stamp set to the bottom right of the card onto the designer series paper.
- Add a 1″ x 4-1/4″ of designer series paper to the inside bottom of the card, leaving some space between the bottom of the card and the designer series paper.
- Fussy cut an image of choice and adhere it to the inside of the card, slightly overlapping the designer series paper.
How fun is this card? It is just adorable! Now let us hop on over to Jana Secord of Crazy Stampin’ Lady and see what she has in store for us:)
