CC85: sandy violets

[emilymomto3boys]

WOW! This is the first color challenge suggestion that I had sent to me in the form of a RAK! How fun! Anyway, I had to use it right away, because....how sweet is that?!? So this week's challenge was suggested by JusColorado, who sent me the attached card! It isn't in her gallery, so I am just attaching it here. Enjoy!

CC85:

pixie pink

vintage violet

sahara sand



Please put CC85 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge use a comma to separate them) so we can find your card! If you need help uploading click here!

As always, I am open to suggestions for future color challenges! Please pm me if you have one. Including a sample is always appreciated! I will probably not respond, as I get several, but I save them for future reference!

I just happened to pop over here and there's the color challenge - thanks Emily, another great one!!!

[raduse]

Oh my gosh, I'm second???? I just stopped in for a minute. Cool card Emily you lucky stamper.

[golly]

Thanks for this color combo. Hope to have time tomorrow. .Glad to have a push to use the vintage violet.

[JusColorado]

Emily...I can't believe my card is up here for inspiration. How cool is that? Now I have to go create something else. I love an excuse to stamp!!!

Here's mine for this week.....had to squeeze this one out during a bathroom plumbing disaster. (DH thought he could fix a drippy faucet and ended up flooding the bathroom and yelling for help cause the water was spraying everywhere and he couldn't shut it off.....fun times.)

Pretty colors Emily!!!

[Lala]

I love the card JusColorado, and how thoughtful. Putting all of our feelings of appreciation into a card for Emily! Exciting challenge with all 3 colours being a bit of a challenge, even seperately, for me!
I've only justed popped in on SCS, myself, for a quick tea before bed and thought I'd take a peek at the last weeks colours and there this was...what a bonus. I'll enjoy checking back when my week wears on and see what everyone does!
thanks for the inspiration,

[Wendybell]

How am I gonna make a FALL card out of those colors?? (I'm kinda in a fall mood right now.) That's why I guess we call it a "challenge"!

[lacyquilter]

Oh, fun. Will see if I get a chance to play tomorrow afternoon.

[Rachelhope13]

Nice card Justine!!! I wouldn't have thought of this combo...I'll have to try it tomorrow

[Angela R.]

great cards, but i don't have VV!!! what should i use instead???

[JusColorado]

Angela...I think Night of Navy would be pretty with this.

[jtkshaw]

Pretty colors! Will try them tomorrow!

Thanks Emily. I love vintage violet. I had used it all day Monday with Roses in Winter, so I intentionally avoided that set for this card. I hope y'all like it!

[JusColorado]

Here's mine. I am up way too late! Thanks, Emily, for choosing my card for inspiration. I'm really honored.

I hear ya Justine about being up too late, it's almost 3am here in PA. Anyway, here's mine:

Flowers for My Friend

Karen, check out how similar it is to yours!!

[allee's]

Great colors, Justine and Emily! I finally broke down and got the vintage violet just last week. Now I'll have to crack those packages open and see what I can come up with!!

[bensarmom]

Pretty cards and great challenge ladies. Can't wait to play later today.

[stampkat]

I have both the VV CS and stamp pad and have yet to use them! Thanks for the challenge--hope to get to one when I get home later today.

Just dropping in to let everyone know my husband is doing better. He may have to have a second surgery today or tomorrow but the antibiotics are doing their job right now. I came in and looked at everyone's fan cards last night but was too tired to comment. If there is no surgery today I may come home early enough to play in this challenge to relieve a little stress. It is so interesting to me how much I have missed my friends on this site over the last week. Please keep my husband in your prayers today. Thanks to all of you for that!!!!! XOXOXOXOX

[smitty2004]

[crooked river]

Oh Kittie, how awful! Sending hugs and prayers your way.

[Soozie4Him]

Jan, use some eggplant instead of violet - close enough!!

[NANCYRUTH]

Gallery at Splitcoaststampers Gallery at Splitcoaststampers are mine! Thanks for the challenge!

[BadSherry]

Great colors but no sahara sand -- what's a good substitute?

[bambi64]

Sound like great colors but no Vintage Violet here! (maybe I can sneak mom's!)

[diana11460]

My thoughts and prayers are heading your way Kittie - hope your DH is feeling better real soon!!

Here's my card. I didn't have sahara sand paper, but I did have the ink - go figure! So I substituted kraft for the sahara - seems like a pretty close match to me.

Sassy!

[stampincuzILuv2]

nice color combo!

Don't have either sahara sand (it's on its way!) or vintage violet. I'd have to go way out to sub so I'll just look at all the pretty cards you make for inspiration!

[dawnmercedes]

Same here holly...I"m out 2 colors...and for once, they aren't rich regals...hehe.


I'll see if I can't catch up all some of the challenges that I've missed....but it's going to be a busy day for me!

[Anna741]

Good challenge, Emily! I was skeptical since I'm not a fan of Pixie Pink or Vintage Violet, but I'm happy with the result...
