Hello colorchallengechampions!! It's Tuesday and we have a brand new color challenge lined up for you. It's #488 on the charts for us.
First, we have our color challenge favorite from last week. Becky, as hostess was to pick her favorite. She selected Julie Gearinger's "you are there" card.
Becky said: "Beautiful in it's simplicity. The sponging and touch of spritz are perfect details to accentuate the flower."
Congrats Julie. The code to add the badge to your blog is attached below and your card will also be pinned on our Pinterest color challenge board. Check it out here.
Now onto this week's challenge. It's about "all abloom". Our gardens here at the Marsh household are in full bloom and there is quite an array of color. So I am giving you quite an array of color this week.
I am choosing 7 colors and you can pick 3 to work with or use all 7 of them. Just let us know your choice.

Blushing Bride
Daffodil Delight
Island Indigo
Lost Lagoon
Mossy Meadow
Pistachio Pudding
Strawberry Slush
Whisper White (our neutral this week)
Dessert: is all about summer - so have your creation reflect summer- flowers, beach scene, garden scene, summer fruits- you get the idea
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 CC488 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.
Wow, thanks so much Becky for the honor of choosing my card as your weekly favorite and thanks Mary for letting me know!! You have made my week- hugs to both of you!!!

This reminds me of going to the candy store as a kid and picking one of the lipstick candies, one of the licorice whips, etc..only with colors! FYI-my grandpa would give me a nickel to go to the "little store" and that nickel sure bought a lot back then.
Mary- great challenge- I used all the colors as they went well together- my stamped images come from ANM's Classic Winnie The Pooh set- added some dc hearts and washi tape. Background is the pink and blue pillowcase I sewed for my DD. Here's Pooh Parade

burgers and hot dogs grilled very rare-- Who'd use strawberry slush and blushing bride to color bbq meat?! Eh. I just wasn't in the mood for flowers...
What a palette of colors to choose from today! I limited mine, but am very impressed by those who have included them all beautifully in their cards today!

Thanks for the pretty colors to choose from. I chose yellow, hot pink, and light pink. I don't have Stampin' Up Card Stock, so I used my favorites from MFT: Lemon Drop, Razzle Berry, and Pink Lemonade.
