Color Challenge by Mistake

As I was working on my cards for the last color challenge, I happened to notice some ink pads and scraps of paper sitting next to each other and thought, 'Hey, those would look really good on a card!'

So here's our next color challenge already!!


Old Olive
Pink Pirouette
Baja Breeze
Not Quite Navy


I'm really excited about this one, so let's see what you can come up with! And remember, my letter coloring above is only approximate - I can't enter the true RBG for the colors. Hopefully it's just enough to give you an idea of what colors we're using.

If you don't have the current In Colors (08-09) but are still interested in trying this, email me, and I'll give you some alternative colors to use based on what you have available!

4 AM Challenge Examples

My whole family has been hit pretty hard with sickness this week, so I wasn't able to get my cards done as soon as I had hoped. I'm just proud that I even found time to get them done! So here they are:



Sweet Stems Stamp Set


Zoofari Stamp Set


Zoofari Stamp Set
(I had to cheat a little on this one, and use Kiwi Kiss ribbon
because I didn't receive my Old Olive ribbon until late last night!)

4 AM Challenge

So it's 4am and I'm wide awake with my son who has decided he would rather be up playing than sleeping! I was noticing a really cute shirt he had on the other day, and I thought the colors would be perfect for a color challenge. It's been quite some time since I've done any sort of challenge, so what better time to start than now!

Colors:

Old Olive
Pacific Point
Chocolate Chip


Since I haven't made my card yet either, let's say the 'deadline' is Friday. Make your card(s) using these colors and then send me a picture so I can see what you've come up with! I will upload my picture as soon as I get it done (maybe tomorrow?) to be used as an example.

Good luck and I hope you all have fun with this!!

Look-A-Likes

Here are 4 cards that use the same stamp sets, similiar layouts or main elements, colors, and accessories. Just by changing up these key elements can dramatically change the look or feel of your card!
