I love this set and personally have over 100 hydranges in my garden. I wanted to make a Christmas card with the set and after playing with colors etc. for over 2 hours, here is what I came up with. It is much more shimmery IRL as the background for the hyd is gold and the blooms are embossed with clear EP. Next one I think I'll make the leaves darker for more contrast.
Blooms: 1-blush blossom, 2-mellow moss, 3-vvanilla craft, 4-encore gold
Leaves: 1-antique linen, 2-mellow moss, 3-artichoke
Urn: 1-going grey, 2-smokey grey, 3-basic grey, 4-Bravo burgundy
