Challenge #369 - Colors

Hello everyone!  Welcome to a new month of challenges at CAS Colours & Sketches!  I'm Wei, and I'm excited to be your challenge hostess this month.  If you're new here, we hope you'll join in the fun and creativity.  If you're a returning participant, we're glad you're back with us again!

We're kicking off our May challenges with a color combination for you to try:

Challenge #368 - Sketch

Wow, it's hard to believe April is almost over!  We realize it's been - well, to put it nicely - an interesting month for a lot of people, as our countries, cities, and states adjust to new policies to help us through the coronavirus crisis.  We hope all of our participants are doing well, staying safe and healthy.

We have one last sketch challenge for you this month.  You're welcome to use it as it's drawn, flip it mirror-image, or even turn it on its side.

Challenge #367 - Colors

Hello there!  We really enjoyed seeing all the awesome cards our challenge participants created with last week's sketch challenge!  It was great seeing some new people taking part in our challenge along with our regular participants!  We hope you'll join us again this week.

This week marks the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, and we have some cheery nature-inspired colors for you to work with - the green of grass and leaves, the yellow of sunshine, and the blue of sky and water:



For our color challenges, you must use all of the stated challenge colors.  We've used Stampin' Up color names for reference; however, you may use any companies' products for your cards as long as you match our colors as closely as possible.  You may also use white, ivory, black, greys, browns, or metallics 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 colors.
