CC265: Certainly Tempting Suede!

[gbedwright]

I have a CC story for you this week! I stop at the mailbox at the end of my drive and peruse all the junk mail. Among the stash of junk was a flyer from Vera Bradley pocketbooks. Now, I am not sure if this is a new print or not, but I took one look at the Sitting in a Tree pattern and thought if that is not soft suede nothing is, and it sure looks like certainly celery and tempting turquoise are paired with it. I personally thought it had possibilities. I thought I would share. Now, I am including a picture of the colors and the link to the Sitting in a Tree pattern. However, I do this because many have asked for a color reference point. Do not want you to feel like you have to get inspiration from the pocketbooks as anything goes with these colors.

Sitting in a Tree

CC265: Certainly Tempting Suede

Certainly Celery

Tempting Turquoise

Soft Suede (close to cocoa)

Neutrals of Choice

This week's dessert option: Crimping! Use those crimping tools. Create a fun background, focal point, or embellishment with some crimping!


I asked Corie and Sallie to sample with me this week! Thanks so much!

Please keep in mind, too, that while we list SU colors for the challenges these are just color reference points. Use the closest colors you have. We want everyone to be able to play!!!

Please put CC265 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge use a comma to separate them) so we can find your card! If you need help uploading click here!

I will be hosting the color challenges for the next few weeks. If there is a color combo you want to see using any of the new in colors, please pm me with the link to the card. Try to stay within three color choices. Thanks so much!

I'm still waiting for this sinus headache, sore throat and ear infection to go away despite being on antibiotics for two days and I have to be in St. Louis this weekend for a Copic certification class! I'm just miserable! I made a card anyway. Thanks for the challenge Betty. God bless you ladies and have a wonderful day.
