Welcome to the Color Fusers Blog Hop and January 2026 Color Challenge!
If you’ve already started the blog hop you should be coming from the talented Heather Thomas’s blog post. If you’ve just joined in, make sure to do the full hop and see all the wonderful projects created by the Color Fusers Design team! The color scheme for the January 2026 Color Challenge includes Petal Pink, Lost Lagoon, and Gold.
Today’s project features the Friendly Foliage Bundle and the Lasting Linen Stamp Set.
I’ve create two versions of my card, one with and one without the Lasting Linen stamp set.
I love this image stamped and heat embossed in the gold on the black! So dramatic right? The Friendly Foliage dies were used to cut out the negative space around the image only inside the rectangle. There’s another die that allows you to cut around the outside of the rectangle and foliage, making this a fun set of dies to play with.
The focal piece is popped up on dimensionals for some added interest. The sentiment is heat embossed with gold embossing powder and popped up on glue dots.
Here’s my second variation of this card. I simply used the Lasting Linen image on the Petal Pink layer for some added texture.
What do you think about the added texture. Comment if you prefer one variation over the other.
Here’s another closeup.

I like the card with the linen stamp on it better. It seems to mimic the impression left from the gold embossing.
