This week's colors for the color challenge are so bright and springy...Should make us all feel a little warmer. We are to use Costal Cabana, So Saffron, and Tangerine Tango, with Baked brown sugar and vanilla as our neutrals. I showed the colors to my DH, who made some comment about a bright Easter egg. Anyways, went off to do my thing... and a while later mentioned I had made a "man" card with those colors. Well, he had to see it to believe it! I used the bright challenge colors to sponge the sunset BG and used baked brown sugar for the main image and the other details.

Sometimes the DHs are a bit clueless... I love that the challenge colors are sort of taking a back seat to the neutrals - sometimes I have trouble making the challenge colors work for me, and this is a really great, creative solution!

Super masculine card. We could all use a few more of those.

I love the sponging and the big brads/domes!
