The theme for this month's Hop is BUTTONS!! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I couldn't not play along this month *giggles* I sort of changed the theme to Hawaiian Shores and buttons as I really wanted to start trying different color matches with Hawaiian Shores.
On my first card I worked some True Black and Pure Poppy with Hawaiian Shores. I used patterned papers from Black & White Basics, Prima chipboard, Making Memories pins that matched perfectly, Hawaiian Shores ribbon, Pure Poppy buttons, and a sentiment from Asian Fusion. Not sure about the Vintage Tea Dye that I inked the edges of the card with - but whatev - LOL
On my second card I went with Raspberry Fizz and used patterned papers from Raspberry Fizz Mix, Prima chipboard, some Hawaiian Shores buttons and the sentiment from Asian Fusion. And do you love that ribbon?? I got this ribbon from Courtney Baker's new shop: Practicing Creativity Designs and it matches Hawaiian Shores perfectly!
I went a little outside the box on my third card and tried Dark Chocolate with Hawaiian Shores. I paired Chocolate Remix patterned papers with some pretty cream eyelet trim that I picked up from A Million Memories, Prima chipboard (it really does go with everything - heh), and Hawaiian Shores ribbon and buttons. I finally got me one of those 2-way glue pens and put a couple of strips of glitter across the top of my card just for a lil' sum-sum up there. Not sure if this one is my most favorite color combinations ever, but I'm all about trying new things - sometimes you hit it, and sometimes you miss it - ha!
Thanks so much for stopping in.
See you on the Hop!

Wow love how you showcased HS as well as the buttons for the Blog Hop. It's such a yummy color isn't it? Im so sad cuz I bought the 12 pack but as soon as I opened my box I was in LOVE. Next order I will get the 50 pack!! Then I can try pairing it with other colors like you did. Beautiful job on all the cards!

Hard to pick just one of your beautiful cards. but I'll go with #1.
All gorgeous! You have a definite way with unique color combos, but the first is my fave for sure. LOVE the terracotta buttons.
Okay, now that I know how HS looks with RF, I WILL get it someday! I like seeing it with different combos than I would use!
