Challenge #395 - Color

How can it be November already? Hi! I am Shannon and I will be your hostess for the month.  Temperatures in the mid 80's in my tiny corner of the world, don't exactly exude the feeling of Fall/Autumn. However, the brightly colored falling leaves, my kids finally in school full time, and Halloween party planning done....sights and sounds confirm Fall is definitely here. That said, I am going with a Fall inspired color scheme for this first week of November.

For our color challenges, you must use all of the stated challenge colors. You may also use neutral colors; however, the challenge colors should be the most noticeable ones featured on your card. We use Stampin' Up color names for reference, but you are welcome to use any other companies' products as long as you match the challenge colors as closely as possible.

Our design team has created the following cards to inspire you:

Design Team Call and Challenge #394 - Sketch

We are looking for some new members
to add to our Design Team!

Our blog is dedicated to creating greeting cards in the Clean and Simple style of crafting, alternating between colour challenges and sketch challenges. Design Team responsibilities include designing cards for our challenges and sharing them on your own blog, commenting on challenge entries and voting for our Weekly Winners each week, and acting as our host and creating challenge ideas for at least one month during the year.

If you would like to be considered for a position on our team, you must have participated in last week's color challenge and this week's sketch challenge so that we can see your work in both types of challenges. Please add the letters "DT" after your name when you link your cards for the two challenges, and make sure that your cards follow our Challenge Rules. Applicants will be contacted during the month of November.  Our new members will join us as our Guest Designers for our 400th challenge in December and start on the team full-time in January 2021.

 

Hello friends!  It's Julie once again.  Today's challenge ends my month of hostess duties and we're finishing up October with a new sketch.  

Sketches are definitely up to personal interpretation however the idea behind this one is to use nine items of any one shape.  (For example, stars, hearts, triangles, etc.)  Do feel free to mix and match colors/patterns, flip and/or rotate the sketch to your liking.

Our design team has created the following cards to inspire you:
