I struggled a little with this week's color challenge at Splitcoaststampers, though I guess that is what makes it a challenge. The colors are Pacific Point + Lemon Lime Twist + Flirty Flamingo. Dessert is ... wings. I substituted Light Granny Apple Green for Lemon Lime. I also found you can add a little yellow if you want it to be more, well, lemony. My card almost didn't get its wings until I remembered the birds from the January Paper Pumpkin kits. Can you find him?
I hope you join in! This combination is challenging, but fun.

This turned out great Chris, I would have never know you struggled with these colors (took me a while to figure out what I wanted to make as well, just sayin'). Love the sassy bird you added too!

I am very attracted to these SU stamps that have words and images, but it would mean i'd have to color and that is not my forte. but like you said, if it isn't a challenge, why do it? I think you did a marvelous job with the colors, so perfect.
