Default CC781 Very Basic Red (03-03-20)

Hello Color Challenge Fans! It's Tuesday and time for a new color challenge. #781 on the charts for us.

Before we discuss this week's colors, let's take a look at Chris' favorite from last week. She chose this beautiful Stargazer Lily card from Joanne aka sleepyinseattle.

Chris said: "Joanne's richly colored lilies against the textured background with a pop of white vellum for her greeting just about had me singing hallelujah"!

Congrats Joanne! The code to add the favorite badge to your blog is located at the bottom of the post. We will also feature your card on our Color Challenge Pinterest board. See that here.

And, since it's a new month we have 2 new guest designers. Joining the team and sharing some amazing paper artist skills with us is Roberta aka stampin'nana and Jen aka jennifrann. Roberta was our fave from CC748 & CC779. Jen was our fave from CC726 & CC738. 

Now onto this week's colors. I have chosen some basic colors that should produce some outstanding cards.
 
Are you ready for a very basic red?


You are always welcome to use the Stampin'-Up neutral shades in addition to the challenge colors. You can find those colors here.

 Dessert Option: Use your favorite shade of green

Our color divas this week



Also, even though 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 CC781 in your keywords section (and if you have more than one challenge use a comma to separate them). We want to be able to find your cards!

Great colors Mary. I needed to use up these last 2 already cut poppy die cuts from my stash so they did not get damaged.

Mary this was a great time to get the holidays started. The green is in the leaves, but hard to see.
