Default CC791 Delight in the Mambo and Calypso (5/12/20)

Hello Color Lovers! It is my pleasure to be your hostess again this week. The Color Challenge team sends you our best wishes for your good health and safety. We hope you can find some time to join us this week and make a card to lift your spirits, and then send it to someone to lift theirs!

Before we get to this week's colors, let's celebrate last week's favorite!



Stef was our hostess, and she chose Finished Netflix by Jen aka Jennifrann.

Stef said, Jen's card, with the cat lady undoubtedly spending a lot of time binge watching Netflix, made me laugh out loud and is perfect for these times!

Congratulations, Jen! 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, on to this week's colors!

Daffodil Delight
Melon Mambo
Calypso Coral



Did you know that you are always welcome to use the Neutral family of colors from the SU palette in addition to the challenge colors? You can find those colors here.

For the dessert option this week, make a Thinking of You card.

Here are some samples to inspire you:

Barbara aka bejoyce
Chris aka inkpad
Sandie aka sistersandie, Sample 2
Linda aka Holstein
CC791 Gallery

Please keep in mind that while SU colors are listed 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 CC791 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge, use a comma to separate them) so we can find your card.

I am playing Challenge cardmaking, and hopefully, doing some catching up, as well. This is a sympathy card for an SCS cardmaking friend whose Mom passed away in late February.

To get the effect I was looking for in my ink-blending, I found some colors had to be blended in over and over to darken them enough, and others, like the Calypso Coral only need a light touch in applying oir it got darker than I wanted.

Here is my card: Bringing Comfort in Loss!
