HelloColorChallengeFans! Welcome to this week's challenge. It's #900 for us and we have some fun planned for all of you.
Before I introduce the colors for this week, let's congratulate Jennie aka craftyjennie as the fave from last week. LeAnn was the hostess and she chose Jennie's Bragworthy Birthday card.
LeAnn said: "I love the softly stenciled background... providing the perfect backdrop for the humorous sentiment! The patterned paper adds the finishing touch to creating an awesome card design! This is a great card showcasing this week's colors"!
Congrats Jennie! The code to add the badge to your blog is attached below. Your card also will be pinned on our Pinterest Color Challenge board. See that here.
Now onto this week's challenge. I asked the team to pick a favorite challenge that they hosted between #801-#899. So we are giving you 6 different color combinations this week. Pick your favorite from the chart below and create a new card.
We are also offering some prizes this week to celebrate #900. Each hostess has come up with a little prize package that will be awarded to her favorite card.
We are offering Stampin' Up Stamp sets, a Paper Pumpkin kit and a Stampin' Up embossing folder + designer paper and matching cardstock.
And, we also have a grand prize to offer: a selection of CottageCutz dies worth $90.
To be eligible for a prize, we do have some rules for this challenge:
1. Your card has to be a new one. 2. You can use your neutrals of choice but you can't add other colors to the combos listed below. 3. On your keywords useCC900 + the other challenge # of the combo you choose. That way the hostess will know you played in her challenge. 4.To be eligible for the grand prize, you will have to create a card for each of the color combos and include the dessert option. So that will be 6 cards in total.

Thanks to the hostesses and all the challenge participants for a fun way to use colors and design elements in new ways. It’s fun to browse the gallery today.
For Karen's lovely color combo I made this mouse in a teacup themed card- for the dessert option of scallops, my framing around the mouse works along with the half doily peeking out from the bottom of my card. Here's a little hello
