Default CC194: Going Really Vanilla

Hello! In honor of Thanksgiving this week, I thought I'd choose a more *fall-ish* color combo. This one was suggested by chrisations.ink - she saw this combo on a card by Petal Pusher. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!


CC194:


Really Rust

Going Gray

Very Vanilla




Petal Pushers's sample


CC194 Gallery





Please put CC194 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!

This was a great challenge. I used my craft very vanilla ink which had been hiding for over 3 months. I also found my heat gun (lost in a box after moving).

Thanks for a fun challenge.

I'm afraid I need to say "pass" on this one. I don't have Very Vanilla and Going Gray yet.

WOW. Very cool color combo. Will play later today after a bunch of last minute running around to do and kicking out a strange cat that's inside my house for some reason.

I just got the word that my card was used in the color challenge. The color combo was inspired by furnishings in West Elm catalog. Wowie . . . I'm so excited. Thanks.

This was somewhat of a limited challenge for me as well because I really wanted to use my cuttlebug, but already had it packed. So here is just some genuine stamping on this card that added the texture and pattern to the card:

I like the idea of doing different color combinations.

I will have to see if I have those colors in my paper selection. I definitely don't have them in my ink selection.

Or I might have to go to the scrapbook store.
