Default CC948 So Let's Calypso in the Meadow (05-16-23)

Hello Color Challenge Fans! It's Tuesday and time for another color challenge. #948 on the charts for us.

Before we discuss this week's colors, let's take a look at Chris' favorite from last week. She chose Janine's aka Jay_Bee's Surprise Box card.

Chris said: "
Where I live we’ve just begun to get a taste of spring and summer but Janine’s Christmas card, in non-traditional holiday colors, really had me admiring her sparkly snow. I loved the contrast of the striped packages with the stenciled rainbow grid. Her beautifully colored card simply exudes Christmas Joy - any time of year".

Congrats Janine! Your card will be pinned on our Pinterest Challenge board. Check it out here.

Now onto this week's challenge.
Are you ready - so let's calypso in the meadow?

So Saffron
Calypso Coral
Mossy Meadow
You are always welcome to use the neutral shades from Stampin'-Up in addition to the challenge colors. You can find the list of neutrals here.

Dessert Option: Designer Paper

This week's featured designers


Mary aka MaryR917
Jeanne aka Penny627

CC948 Gallery


Please keep in mind that while we refer to Stampin' Up! colors these are simply color reference points. Feel free to use whatever colors you have that are most similar. We want everyone to play!

Please put CC948 in your keywords so that we can find your card. If you have more than one keyword separate them with a comma.

Default CC948 Floral Thanks

Great color challenge, thank you! I unearthed a vintage Paper Pumpkin kit from October 2015 and used the watercolor paper for my background, using my MISTI to stamp my flowers and then the sentiment on my banner. Here's Floral Thanks

Heart CC948 Simple Moments

Came back for a second card, this time inspired by the roosters we saw on Mother's Day at the heritage park here in NW Washington. Went with green and black plaid designer paper for dessert. Here's Simple Moments

Here's my card for this pretty color combo, unfortunately my middle paper shows gray in the picture but it's really green as close as possible: A Sweet and Simple Note
