Okay, I cannot just list this color combo without some "what fors!" It sounds terrible. However, the results are just splendid if I do say so myself! I was playing around with what is left of my combo pack of In Colors. I glanced over and Rich Razzleberry was right beside Dusty Durango and I felt a spark. Actually, I think Dusty loves Razzleberry 'cause she is rich! Another story. I put them side by side and thought there are possibilities if I could find the perfect third color to go with. So Saffron WON! So glad that color is staying! Well, I had my trio, then I had to make my card! I am just thrilled how this color combo looks together! I am sure you will be, too! Just give it a chance! Go beautify the gallery!
CC271: Dusty Razzleberry Saffrons!
Dusty Durango
Rich Razzleberry
So Saffron
Neutrals of Choice
This week's dessert option: Stenciling!
Starting to see more and more where people are using the negative spaces of their die cuts or punches to stencil backgrounds, frames, or decorative accents to their cards! You can use medium of choice...(i.e. chalk, airbrush, ink, etc). You can create simple looks or layer on the colors for richer detailing.
I asked Kelly and Stacy to sample with me today!
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 CC271 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!
Never in a million years would I have thought of these colors together, but they really do work! Thanks for the challenge, Betty! MY CARD

Wonderful challenge colors, Betty. This AM I just wasn't "with it", but did have occur what I consider a "happy accident" when deciding to use bleach on my dull orange paper. Thanks for another "thinking cap" challenge. I did enter the poll. Thanks again, for wanting our opinions.
Yikes, this was a tough one 4 me. That's why we call them challenges, right? Funny, I always thought the challenge was how much schtuff we could fit in our studios! Thanks for the stretch, Betty.

Great color challenge. I would have never put these these colors together but they work beautifully! Thanks for the challenge!

I haven't done a color challenge in I don't know how long so I combined it with the sketch. Of course you have to make sure you don't have purely pomegranate out instead of rich razzleberry!! LOL I did go back over with the razzleberry (sunset).
This is a great colour combo! I thought I had included the dessert option, but I must have confused it with something else, because I thought it was encouraging words! lol oh well!
