CC239: Mellow Whites
So this week I am incorporating one of my favorite things. I love the look of white ink on kraft or taupe cardstocks. So this week, I am giving you a little bit of wiggle room - much as I want to convert the masses to the beauty of kraft cardstock.....this week I am giving you options! Enjoy!
CC239:
Mellow Moss
White
Kraft or Taupe (any sandy, taupe-ish shade!)
My Sample #1
My Sample #2
CC239 Gallery
Please put
CC239 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 !
As always, I am open to suggestions for future color challenges! Please pm me if you have one. DO NOT SEND ME AN EMAIL!! If you do not include a sample, it is harder for me to use it! I will probably not respond, as I get several, but I save them for future reference!

Hey Emily, I saw your two card samples before I actually saw this post up, so I did my card in what I thought were the color for today.

Thanks Emily, I am going to have to try this. I have been stuck in a Christmas card rut and these colors don't yell Christmas to me.

Emily, these colors are so pretty!
I had to use Soft Suede as my card base. I didn't have 12x12 Kraft cardstock. Sorry! I also had add a touch of pink for my butterfly.

I do like this color combo. I really like it with the pop of black you added Emily, but I didn't add the black onto mine.
Thanks for looking at my
