CC345 - BLUSHING ROSE LIMEADE...YUM! - 10/18/11

[Karen B Barber]

Hello everyone!!

Happy Tuesday, and Happy Color Challenge day!!! I HAVE TO TELL YOU, I DID THIS ALL BY MYSELF TODAY....NO HELP FROM VICKI.....THE LINKS ARE A BIT FUNKY BUT I DID IT ALL BY MYSELF!! SUCH A BIG GIRL.....SO PROUD!!!!! REJOICE WITH ME!!!! ;)

My last color challenge choice - Cherry Calypso Mustard set me back severely in the self esteem department......whine, whine, whine, complain, complain, complain, I wanted to ask you all....."You wanna a little cheese with that whine???" ANYWAY.....I decided to take it all easy on you this month....with a pink, pinker and green combo.....who can't handle pink, pinker and green, I ask ya???? So.....drum roll.....the super simple "challenge" that probably won't even BE a challenge this month is: (which also happens to fit RIGHT in with our breast cancer awareness theme this month....)

BLUSHING BRIDE
REGAL ROSE
LUCKY LIMEADE

MIX it all UP and you get......BLUSHING ROSE LIMEADE!!! Sounds YUMMY, right????? And for dessert, and every one knows, Life is short and you should eat dessert FIRST, how about some GOLD EMBOSSING?????? HOPE you enjoy this combo.....I figured I would give you a nice easy week and maybe I could win a popularity contest this week giving you such easy colors....and it would help me recover from last time, and get back to my usual over confident self!!

And guess what guys??? Remember last time I was in the middle of remodeling and redecorating my new stamp studio and my husband said he would give me a month to have it as messy as my old one?? My husband was wrong, it's been over a month and my brand new stamp studio remains CLEAN!!! And I am stamping in it too!!!!

Here is the design team this week who made samples to inspire you in my no brainer, pink, pinker and green challenge!! Please don't even ask why my links come out so funky - don't go there.....I am clueless but if you click on them the samples come up and that's just gonna have to be good enough!! I stink at this, remember?????

Karen, I have to admit that I made this card before I read the color challenge for today -- but how fortuitous. While my colors are not the SU colors listed, they are close enough to qualify.

Thank you Karen ... you're a sweetie ~ <3

Here's Mine.

[TrishG]

Fun colors Karen. At first I thought you meant Rose Red. Good thing I double checked!
Way to go posting ALL BY YOURSELF!

I was glad I came into today with nothing pre-decided. After I saw the colors I thought I should try something with a stamp set I haven't used in a while. These colors make the perfect baby girl card! One more for my stash.

Thanks for the color challenge each week.

Here is my card for today's color challenge. I liked these colors. My card turned out to be a card you would give to someone who has breast cancer, because of the pink ribbon of hope on it. Here is my card: CC345 by skitter - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers
