Default CC226: Tempting Apricot Caramel Breezes!

I’m so excited to be this week’s guest hostess for the Color Combination Challenge! Thanks, Emily!

I love blues and browns, and my very favorite color this year is Apricot Appeal, so I took this opportunity to combine them for this week’s challenge and used FOUR colors:


CC226:

Baja Breeze
You can substitute Bashful Blue

Tempting Turquoise


Apricot Appeal



Creamy Caramel


If you would like to use just 3 of these 4, that is fine!

My Sample

NANCYRUTH'S Sample
CC226 Gallery




Please put
CC226 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, Emily is open to suggestions for future color challenges! Please pm her if you have one.(emilymomto3boys) DO NOT SEND HER AN EMAIL!! If you do not include a sample, it is harder for her to use it! She will probably not respond, as she gets several, but she saves them for future reference!

Tempting Turquoise and Baja Breeze are two of my favorite colors. To have them both in a challenge is a bonus. Thanks for guest hosting, Faith.

I look forward to pulling out the Apricot Appeal - a neglected color recently, that used to be a favorite. Thanks for the challenge!

Well, I had the challenge title in my head (Tempting Apricot Cocoa Breezes) instead of looking at the list of colors, and used Close to Cocoa instead of Creamy Caramel. Oh well!

Here is my Embrace Each Moment~

Thanks, Faith, for filling in and for such a great CHALLENGE!
I don't know if I'll have time to play along.
I looked at the title and my first reaction was - no way - yuck
But I had to check out the gallery and REALLY like those colors together.
Thanks for challenging us to try something different.
Sometimes one color by itself is hard to like and use, but when you find the colors that go with it then it works out awesome!

Very Pretty color combination, thanks Markie's Mom! I have been wanting to use my Flock Together DSP and when I saw today's color challenge, I knew I had to break it out. I tend to lean towards brighter color combos, so it was nice to work with the pastels. And glitter, I'm not really a glitter girl, so this was fun.
