Here is my card for the Colour Challenge. I did not have the right pink or red (not having much SU stock), but have used something pretty close. I have also used some of the images that I was sent from Peggy...they are so different from anything that I have, so I am loving working with them!
I used chalks, so the colouring is in the right shades, in the photo it is a bit hard to tell the pink from the red, but it is easy IRL - I don't know about you, but I always find it hard to get red to look right in photos!!! I also used some of the ribbon I picked up from the garage/yard sale many months ago...there was 50 metres of it - now there is only 49.8 - well, a slight exaggeration there! The images have been attached to the card wth 3D foam, to give more dimension to the card.
I am loving these challenges as they make you think about colour combinations that you might not normally put together...very good to 'stretch your borders!'
Thanks so much for stopping by, please feel free to leave your 'footprints' in the form of comments - I really value what you have to say!!!

Great colors and details ~ TFS!

shall humble themselves and pray,
and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways,
then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins,
and heal their land.* II Chronicles 7:14
