HelloColorChallengeFans! It's Tuesday and time for another color challenge. #585 on the charts for us!
Let's start with the fave from the CC584 gallery last week. This beautyfrom Jo aka reddyisco really stood out.
The flowers have a beautiful watercolor look to them. And, the background sponging is gorgeous.
Congrats Jo ! The code to add the badge to your blog is attached below, and your card also will be pinned on our Pinterest Challenge board. Check it out here.
Now onto this week's challenge. I chose a subtle, a regal and a metallic.
Are your ready for some wild cherries trimmed in gold?
Wild Wasabi
Cherry Cobbler
Gold
Neutrals: Vanilla or White
Dessert: anything goes. For any new players this dessert option is just an optional item that you can include on your card. It's a little twist to the colors.
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 CC585 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge, use a comma to separate them) so we can find your card!
Thank you for having me as a guest designer this month. It's been so much fun! Lucky for me that I was chosen in a month with 5 Tuesdays. I hope to be able to do this again sometime.
These colors are so vibrant and cheerful; I had a a wonderful surprise yesterday, of meeting a biological cousin and her husband who were traveling through Arkansas on their way to Florida. (I am adopted); so it was such a wonderful surprise and I made this card to send to them.

For today's color challenge, did a "gathered curtain" so as to not cover my little white bird, peering at the mixer- maybe cookie dough for the oven?- and added a vintage style kitchen tool canister, along with sequins for my abstract balloons- all 1960s style. Here's Retro kitchen

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
life is something that happens only when you run out of cardstock
My green is rally Gumball Green I think, but I wanted to use up some of these retired dsp stacks I have sitting around. So I substituted. But definitely still the same color theme.
Thanks for letting me get a few Christmas cards caught up Mary! Good as Gold by pvilbaum - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Help me please. I'm trying to figure out which background color shows the dress best. I want to delete one or the other. I don't know how to change out the picture after it's been posted without deleting the specs and comments.
