COLOR CHALLENGE #4

The colors for this week's challenge said feminine. Since Mother's Day falls prior to our May Color Challenge, I thought I'd get you all thinking about cards for the women in your life. 

When I looked at this I saw:

Smokey Slate

Tip Top Taupe

Chocolate Chip

Blushing Bride

Flirty Flamingo

I chose Flirty Flamingo, Tip Top Taupe and Chocolate chip. I brought in Very Vanilla for my 'basics color'.

Flirty Flamingo for the base with a Very Vanilla mat. Falling in Love designer series paper and the So In Love Stamp set. Both the paper and the stamp/ die set are from Stampin' Up! and on our retired list. If you like these pieces, grab them now. After May 31, 2017, they will no longer be available. Here's a link to my SU blog where you'll find a link to my on-line store.

The die is cut from Tip Top Taupe then I stamped the image in Chocolate Chip.

RULES:

There aren't any rules. You may use any company product you like. My only request is if you use a stamp or something special, link to the company so we may add to our stash, too :-D

Remember... you can add a neutral light color to any of the color challenges. You also don't have to use all the colors from the Inspiration Photo. Pick a minimum of THREE and have some fun. Link to your post (Please use a direct link to THE POST - not to your general blog link. Need assistance, just email me and I'll help)

Show us your COLORS!

COLOR CHALLENGE #1

Now that the studio is mostly organized and I can create, I want to spiff up the blog a bit.

I have been Pinning color combinations on Pinterest for a couple of years. So I'm going to begin sharing those.

Beginning this week, I will post a Color Challenge the 3rd Monday of every month. By February I hope to have a linky system set up that we can link you up directly. In the mean time, I invite you to play along and post a link in the comments section.

Please share the blog post link on your blog. (I hope to also have a blog button in place by February) so others can play.

I chose this sketch from my PP- Sketch It! Pinterest Board. The link to PaperSecrets no longer works:

And here's my card:

The closest I could come to the colors:

Wisteria Wonder

Elegant Eggplant  (ink)

Night of Navy

Perfect Plum. 

I had planned to us Blushing Bride but the color tones just fell in to place as they were.

I used DCWV One Upon A Time DSP, the sentiment is from BYOP (SU) and the moth is from 7-Gypsies.
