It is my pleasure to be your hostess this week. We have some bright, holiday colors for you, but first, let's celebrate last week's favorite!
Roberta was our hostess, and she chose Exercise? by Anne Harmon aka jdmommy. Roberta said, "Anne is a Master at creating comical cards & her crazy birds just made me giggle! I love the scene she created and the way she water colored those birds! Their googly eyes are a hoot! Thanks, Anne, for taking up that extra challenge, too!" Congratulations, Anne! The code to add the badge to your blog is attached below, and your card also will be pinned on our Pinterest Challenge board. Check it out here.
And since it's the first Tuesday of the month, we have two wonderful new Guest Designers with us. Our March guesties are Joanne, aka sleepyinseattle, and Julie, aka asweetjewel. Joanne was with the team many moons ago, and she was also the Fave from CC596. Julie was the Fave from CC595. Welcome Joanne and Julie! It will be such fun to have you with us this month!
And now, back to this week's Challenge. This week's colors are:
Emerald Envy Whisper White Gold
For the dessert option this week, let's make a card to celebrate St. Patrick's Day!
Please keep in mind, 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 CC625 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge, use a comma to separate them) so we can find your card.

Had fun using this week's colors for my sunshine colored card, with a fussy cut butterfly, along with a recycled light green heart. Added some paper layering, 2 large brads for my flower centers, and a set of kelly green twine bows to accentuate my fancy corners. Here's Make Lemonade

Had fun embellishing this wonderful sunny card from a fellow SCS gal- added the gingham ribbons, colored the flower, and added the mini circles with the beehive, wood grain, and bee. Finished by coloring the honeycomb dry embossing. Here's Hap-Bee Birthday

Went with a pair of affectionate owls on a "tree branch"- made from the clean portion of a Starbucks' food wrapper- and added some kelly green borders and curry yellow eyes and some leaf elements. Here's Loving Owls

Revisited this week's color challenge with dessert- combined it with the die cut masking challenge today- using a dc shamrock, with green ink sponged around it (thank goodness for painter's tape!)- added a fussy cut gift label, with a lacy mini dc border, and green patterned washi tapes! Finished with a button/twine combo. Here's Happy Shamrock, in honor of St. Patrick's Day
