Default CC585 Wild Cherries Trimmed in Gold (05-31-16)

Hello Color Challenge Fans! It's Tuesday and time for another color challenge. #585 on the charts for us!

Let's start with the fave from the CC584 gallery last week. This beauty from Jo aka reddyisco really stood out.

The flowers have a beautiful watercolor look to them. And, the background sponging is gorgeous.

Congrats Jo ! The code to add the badge to your blog is attached below, and your card also will be pinned on our Pinterest Challenge board. Check it out here.

Now onto this week's challenge. I chose a subtle, a regal and a metallic.

Are your ready for some wild cherries trimmed in gold?


Wild Wasabi
Cherry Cobbler
Gold

Neutrals: Vanilla or White

Dessert: anything goes. For any new players this dessert option is just an optional item that you can include on your card. It's a little twist to the colors.

Our color divas this week

Mary aka MaryR917
Maura aka Beesmom
Diane aka Dcknit
Kia aka Kiagc

CC585 Gallery

Please keep in mind, too, that while we list SU colors for the challenges, these are just color reference points. Use the closest colors you have. We want everyone to be able to play!!!

Please put CC585 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge, use a comma to separate them) so we can find your card!

Beautiful color combo, Mary!

Thank you for having me as a guest designer this month. It's been so much fun! Lucky for me that I was chosen in a month with 5 Tuesdays. I hope to be able to do this again sometime.

These colors are so vibrant and cheerful; I had a a wonderful surprise yesterday, of meeting a biological cousin and her husband who were traveling through Arkansas on their way to Florida. (I am adopted); so it was such a wonderful surprise and I made this card to send to them.

Here's one for me - even though my mind says"Christmas", I needed mushroom-themed cards for a customer; I think it works okay!

Hi Mary, thanks for the challenge...I first thought Christmas (which I might do later) but then thought of this.

Heart CC585 Retro kitchen

For today's color challenge, did a "gathered curtain" so as to not cover my little white bird, peering at the mixer- maybe cookie dough for the oven?- and added a vintage style kitchen tool canister, along with sequins for my abstract balloons- all 1960s style. Here's Retro kitchen

HI Mary:

I have a question I have been wanting to ask for a long time. What is the recognized RGB code for gold?

I have RGBs for almost all SU colors current and expired) and most of the Tim Holtz Distress colors. I know many paper crafters will use a gold foil.

Thanks
Brent

My green is rally Gumball Green I think, but I wanted to use up some of these retired dsp stacks I have sitting around. So I substituted. But definitely still the same color theme.
Thanks for letting me get a few Christmas cards caught up Mary!

Help me please. I'm trying to figure out which background color shows the dress best. I want to delete one or the other. I don't know how to change out the picture after it's been posted without deleting the specs and comments.

I like the black best but it is still better IRL.

Help ...
