CC372 - MORE EARLY PARTIES....4/24/12

[Karen B Barber]

Hello my stamping cohorts!~

Colors for today:

More Mustard
Early Espresso
Pool Party

AND FOR DESSERT THIS WEEK - Designer paper - either make your own, or use some of your pretty stash!

Someone asked for the colors early and I went out on a limb and chose these three colors BEFORE I tried making a card with them, and so I will be honest, I struggled with my own colors this week!! I thought they seemed to go together so well, and they do, but it was just a hard week for me! I ended up creating a CAS card, but it took me ten times longer then if I had made one my own style! Bwahahahahahaha.....CAS for me is CAC, Clean and Complicated....oh well.....here is some inspiration for you from our design team:


VDutcher - Vicki Dutcher

Karen B Barber - yours truly

and our guest designers who have done SUCH an AWESOME job this month....I will miss seeing your wonderful creations each and every week so therefore you have to keep on playing in this challenge every week, okay??

Have fun with these colors-they really do look nice together! 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 CC372 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge use a comma to separate them) so we can find your card!
