Good Tuesday Morning,Color Lovers! It is my pleasure to be your hostess again this week! We have some festive colors for you, but first, let's celebrate our favorite from last week.
Karen was our hostess, and she chose Birthday Balloons by Toni aka ravengirl.
Karen said, "I love how translucent these balloons are, and the soft sky background really sets them off."
Congratulations, Toni! 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.
And now, back to our challenge. This week's colors are:
Tranquil Tide Silver Pool Party
This week's Dessert Option is "Christmas in July." This is a great opportunity to get a jump on your Christmas cards!
And since it's a new month, we have the pleasure of having two amazing designers join us in the Color Challenge in July. We are pleased to welcome Heather aka justampin' and Linda aka bubblestx4. Heather was the favorite from CC610 and Linda was the favorite from CC606.
Please keep in mind, 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 CC642 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge, use a comma to separate them) so we can find your card!

tranquil silver pools-- the name suggests mercury (danger!) or harry potter unicorn blood (danger! danger!!). How my mind works. Anyway, here's my Christmas in July card: CC642 blessings

I went with an ocean scene, using a reverse die for my stencil "window" (thanks M.E.!) and adding some texture with 4 fabric strips overlapping each other. Background is my DD's socks project from a favorite yarn store in Anacortes, Washington. Here's by your side
