Default CC66: Retro

This week's color challenge was suggested by Mytime. I think it is really pretty and looks kind of retro. We've done some of these colors together before, but not all three at once! So here you go....

Color Challenge 66:
old olive
taken with teal
elegant eggplant

Here is mytime's card sample

Please put CC66 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge use a comma to separate them) so we can find your card! If you need help uploading click here!

As always, I am open to suggestions for future color challenges! Please pm me if you have one. Including a sample is always appreciated! I will probably not respond, as I get several, but I save them for future reference!

I'll have to make mine tonight -- off to the airport -- I'm not sure about these colors -- I'll have to see them in front of me -- I'll have all day to think about them, which is a good thing!

Heather and Tracy, even though your cards are still pending, I can see the thumbnail underneath the description and they look so cute! I love Island Blossoms!

I might have to skip this one since I don;t have EE or TT cardstock. I'll check back to see what your all doing though! Interesting color combo!

I hope I get a chance to play with these colors tonight. I never would have considered putting teal in with the old olive and elegant eggplant, but, after seeing MyTime's card, I thought the teal really set the other two colors off very nicely.

Cool colors!

Here's mine - I posted it under the wrong stamp set, though - I always confuse Cool Cat with The Cat's Meow...

Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

I used a faux mosaic technique using double sided tape and white EP.

Here's another one I just did - a more simple card - love these colors!
