Default CC155: Black Rock Elegance

Alrighty! Here's a fabulous elegant color combo for you! It was suggested by GGRStamps - she saw a card by gbedwright that is beautifully elegant and passed it along my way! No sample from me yet, I'm still recovering from being out of town this weekend and having my Dad destroying my house with the boys, lol! I am definitely doing one tomorrow though - this card is beautiful and I have to try it!

CC155:

Blasic Black

River Rock

Whisper White



CC155 Gallery


gbedwright's sample


Please put CC155 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!

What great colors. Thanks Emily. My card was super fast and easy but looks so elegant. At least to me it does. What do you think?

Sounds like I'm in the minority here, but when I saw the challenge colors my first thought was EW. The cards posted so far are pretty, but I'm stickin' with my initial reaction here--River Rock and I do NOT get along!

The few cards I saw before I started mine were all going in an elegant direction. Not me, I went for grunge, desert BDUs to be specific. Here's mine.

It's not an Easter card, but I did use this challenge to make a sympathy card for a friend of mine. I hope it brings her some comfort.

It isn't Easter
