Wow, I'm so honored and blessed that my card was chosen as the fav for last week's color challenge!! Thank you so much, Vicki, and thank you, Karen, for mentioning it! Your color choices are marvelous!!
Karen- what nice colors! I used a lawn fawn set that I love, along with die cut hearts and some paper piecing. Added a double bow twine tie for my embellie. Here's Sending Hedgehugs

This card sort of evolved as I ran with the color combination which reminded me of summertime. Really stretched my creativity on this one - very different than most cards I make! Details for how I created it can be found at the link below.
My colors aren't exactly like what Karen picked - but I did with what I had. I hope that is okay. Great challenge!!CC593 Get Well Wishes

A wonderful color combo, Karen! This past week I was helping at my DD's high school marching band camp - I'm exhausted and I wasn't the one marching in the hot sun!
