Challenge #131 Colours

Hi, it's Jane welcoming you to a new month of challenges. I'm really excited to be the hostess for this month and I'm hoping you'll enjoy creating with my choices. As always the first challenge is colours and I've included one of my favourite purples in this mix.


We've used Stampin' Up colour names for reference; however, you may use any companies' products for your cards as long as you match our colours as closely as possible. You may also use white, ivory, kraft, or black for your card base and layers, for image outlines, or for sentiments. However, in order to be considered for our weekly winners, you must not use any other colours.

Here is some inspiration from the design team to get your creative juices flowing:

Each month, the names of all the Weekly Winners for the previous month are put into a draw.  The name that is selected is invited to be a Guest Design Team member for an upcoming month of challenges.  

Our Guest Designer for July was chosen from our May 2015 challenge winners, and I'm super delighted to announce it's Stephanie Poteet from Mama Bear Ink.  She is an amazingly creative card maker who regularly links up to our challenges and I know you're going to love her work.  Here is what she's made with this week's colours:

Challenge End Time:  6:00 p.m. Eastern U.S. time/11:00 p.m. London U.K. time Wednesday, 8th July 2015.

Weekly Winners - Color Challenge #129

Thank you to everyone who participated in last week's challenge!  It seemed like our colors really did pose a challenge since there were fewer than usual entries.  Sorry about that! 

Because of the smaller number of submissions, the Design Team is recognizing only two cards as our Weekly Winners.  We felt these two came closest to using our challenge colors while staying clean and simple in style.  In order of entry into the challenge, we congratulate:



Well done, ladies! Please feel welcome to copy our winners' badge and display it on your blog:


If you haven't played along with us yet this week, there is still time to join in our current challenge: #130 - Sketch. You have until 11:00 p.m. London U.K. time /6:00 p.m. Eastern U.S. time Wednesday, July 1 to link your card to the challenge post. We'd love to see what you create!

Challenge #130 Sketch

Hi everyone! Today is the last of my challenges for June, and it's a nice simple sketch! The blank space above the ribbon element leaves a fab blank canvas for you to stamp on, emboss, etc. Just remember to keep it clean and simple.


Feel free to flip or rotate the sketch when creating your card.
