It is time for another SCS Color Combo! This one is rich and fabulous! The expresso is seriously a deep rich dark coffee color. The blushing bride is a bit richer than blush blossom to me. Riding Hood Red I always thought was a richer version of ruby red. Anyway, you really cannot go wrong with Blushing Riding Expresso! The trio is so RICH! LOL! Make something marvelous for the gallery! I know you will!

This week's dessert option: Use something NEW! Tell us what it is as we may all NEED it we just do not know it yet! LOL!
I asked Barbara 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 CC282 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!
THanks Betty, off to find those colors and some stamps.

BACK after CONVENTION, finally back!! It took me a whole week to recoup enough to be challenged!! Here's my color challenge today which I could NOT resist when I saw these wonderful colors!!
I finished this late last night but was too tired to post it, so here it is. What a great combination of the new colors, Betty. Can't wait to see what everyone else has done with them.
Thanks for another lovely challenge. I used the closest colors I could find, with a bit of green thrown in. My dessert is this very pretty SU DP sent by a member of WishRAK.
I wasn't going to do this, then found a scrap of red ridinghood. So, here is mine!
My dessert option was some felt ribbon I picked up a sale on Saturday. I really played with this one. I am practicing distressing. I think the card looks better than photo. I just couldn't get a good photo of it!
Thank you for letting me play!
I love these colors together! Reminds me of the Bella paper from a couple years ago.
My early espresso photographs close to black -- it's much warmer in person.
Thanks for the challenge, here's the card!
I hope this passes muster, Betty. I used choco chip as I have no espresso and I used Pretty in Pink in place of the Blushing Bride. I really need to order some new colors!!
