I'm so happy to be kicking off a new year of color combinations with this week's Color Challenge: Melon Mambo + Mango Melody + Granny Apple Green with any blue for dessert. As you may be able to see, I chose Coastal Cabana for my blue. The Mango Melody shows up in the glimmer paper rainbow. When I looked at it's description it says the pink is Magenta Madness - but it matches my Melon Mambo paper perfectly so I'm going to call that good...
I loved the way the gold foil made the colors pop. It was kind of hard to get the gold embossed words to be easy to read in the photo while getting the shine of other elements. It reads: "a little something to brighten your day".
Thanks for taking a peek. I hope you can join us in starting off the 2022 color challenges!

Well, I would have been in love as soon as I spotted your swiss dots bg, but that bright, colorful rainbow immediately drew my attention. Love all the glitz and glimmer on this card. So perfect with your sentiment. Wonderful card.

Wow, the rainbow is fantastic! It's so fun to step away from the traditional ROYGBIV. The glimmer paper was the perfect choice. What a unique way to use the challenge colors!

Super idea to use the glitter paper for your rainbow! I did not buy this bundle, you are causing me to reevaluate! Very refreshing after all the cold weather! TFS
