CC294 Breezy Blushing Cake(10-26-10)!: Cards & Color Combinations

sleepyinseattle · 10-25-2010, 07:57 PM

I am very happy to host my first ever challenge! Thanks for the opportunity to share in the joy of this fun challenge with this wonderful community of stampers.

CC294: Breezy Blushing Cake

Baja Breeze

Blushing Bride

Crumb Cake

Neutrals of choice

This week's dessert option: Pearls or Lace You can use either or both. I love the little bit of elegance and romance these items add to a card or project.
.

Blushing Bride is a peachy pink, a bit darker than the Blush Blossom and a bit lighter than the Pretty In Pink. A nice in between shade.
The Crumb Cake is the same as the Kraft.

Cool Color Combo! It was fun. I'm not good at vintage cards like Joanne is, so I took it another direction. Thanks for the great color combo, Joanne! You rock, Sistah!

blessingsX3 · 10-26-2010, 06:30 AM

well, I don't have blushing bride but I think I may have time to play in the challenge today. So, is it more of a peachy color like blush blossom or more pinky like pink pirouette or pretty in pink?

sleepyinseattle · 10-26-2010, 06:54 AM

Hi Janette,
Yes, it is a peachy pink. A bit darker than the Blush Blossom but lighter than Pretty In pink.

Crafty Math Chick · 10-26-2010, 07:10 AM

Hi Joanne, Can you help me know which old SU colors are a close match to Blushing Bride and Crumb Cake? Thank you!

sleepyinseattle · 10-26-2010, 10:01 AM

Hi Kittie,
Blushing Bride is a peachy pink, darker than the Blush Blossom but a bit lighter than the Pretty in Pink. Crumb Cake is Kraft, just re-named. Hope this helps.

Here's my card for today. I didn't have the Blushing Bride cardstock so I improvised by airbrushing with my Copics.
