Happy Tuesday and welcome to this week's color challenge. It's #434 on the charts for us. I am your hostess this week and have chosen a neutral, a regal, and an in-color for our color palette.

We are also running a contest for the next 2 weeks. See all the details below.

Are you ready for a Christmas Cake with a Green Cherry?

Dessert: It's Christmas in July

Contest Details: How would you like to be a guest designer with the color challenge team? Or would you like to be a guest hostess with a 4 month term?

All you have do is play along in this week's as well as next week's challenge. And you have to do the dessert option for both weeks. The team will select 4 winners as guest designers. Two (2) of you will guest with us in August and two (2) of you will guest with us in September.

The grand prize winner will be a guest hostess starting in September and run through December.

This week's challenge card has to be in the gallery by Friday, July 12. Next week's challenge card has to be in the gallery by July 19. We will notify the winners by July 26.

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 CC434 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

Smile CC434 Country Dream

Mary- awesome colors! I am dreaming of my trip to Montana to see my kids - and so I used SU's Farm Life set, along with a die cut, embossed evergreen. Added some brads and ribbon for pizzazz. Here's Country Dream

My 2nd CC434 card. I really wanted to try a lighter version of the color combo and do like how it turned out. Thanks Mary for challenging colors and helping us get more Christmas cards in our stash :p
