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!

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!
