CC622 Watermelon & Mints at Night (02-14-17)

[MaryR917]

Hello Color Challenge Fans! Welcome to this week's challenge. It's #622 on the Charts for us!

Also, the team would like to wish a Happy Valentine's Day to all our stamper friends here on SCS.

Let's start things off by announcing the favorite card from the CC621 Gallery. Maura was our hostess and she chose this Cat Valentine card from HowdyHeidi.

Maura said: "There are so many great elements in this card - the sassy cats, the jaunty angle of the stitched panel, the polka dot hearts, the twine, and the fabulous background - and the ending result is such a fun, whimsical card! I love it"!

Congrats Heidi! The code to add the badge to your blog is below. Your card will also be featured on our color challenge Pinterest board. See that here.

Now onto this week's challenge.I haven chosen 2 in-colors and a regal.

Are your ready for "watermelon & mints at night"?

Joanne, it's reminiscent of Sage Shadow.

Love these colors! great for a woodland scene- for my fox and buddy- maybe a badger? got a aspen tree embossed panel from my stamping buddies, added some die cuts and coloring. Remember this children's book title? Just in time for Valentine's Day Here's Love You This Much

Wishing for a warmer climate- so I made this tropical scene, complete with sun umbrella, beach, and a large orange fish. Added an orange doily and mint green washi tape for my embellishments. Here's Tropical Thanks
