I like Lovely Lilac, Pixie Pink, and Cool Caribbean.
Here's a little something for your amusement...I usually pick one color that I want to work with, and then look for color challenges that feature that color. So here's a quick way to find them...I've also attached my personal CC record so you can see what I'm using as a source document. There are a few "bonus challenges" and such on there in addition to the regular ones. Whoops, I just noticed I haven't put last week's color challenge on there. Other than that, it's up to date :mrgreen:
I betcha Sexy Hubby built these spreadsheets as a bribe to have some laundry done! Probably while he was a work....Snort!
Well, since the CC isn't up yet, I was going to make a Lovely Lilac card, but that will have to wait for tonight, and HOPEFULLY the CC will be up by then!
(I think we should have an unofficial color challenge! Make something using Lovely Lilac)
Lisa, I agree that lovely lilac is a very lovely and underused color. I have searched the color combo and came up with this today since the CC was not loaded yet I thougth I would make my own.
Here is my DIORAMA SEA LIFE.
Emily, like some of the other challenge hosts will gladly appreciate suggestions with examples, so make something in the color combo you like, upload it and send it to her as a suggestion. I bet you will see it soon.

Thanks Christy...I will check them out!
Good thing you can take some teasing!
Actually, *I* put the spreadsheet together. I was procrastinating about doing Sexy Hubby's laundry...I figured if I waited long enough, he'd get tired of having no clean clothes and do his laundry himself. And you know what, it worked! Now I just have to train him to do *my* laundry. Never mind that he works a full-time job and for the moment I sit at home and eat bonbons all day. Mmm, bonbons.

Hey...gimme some bonbons...you better share! This is a sharing place! Gimme some now or I am gonna tattle on you!
Whisper....you are an amazing woman to have trained that hubby so well and even more so since he's a Sexy Hubby!
I did christmas cards one year using lovely lilac and brilliant blue.....but can't find that one in my gallery :( It was really cute, too....with polished stone and everything. oh well.....
Ok, I admit, I don't have any actual bonbons, but I do have some strawberry bread. You know those little cookbooks by the cash registers in the grocery store? Love those things. There's one out now that's all muffin and bread recipes and that strawberries and cream one looked so gooooood...it's got fresh strawberries and walnuts in it. Can't wait to try it, it's cooling now As soon as you come out here to Okinawa, Cindy, I'll cut you a slice of that. :mrgreen:
Maybe what we ought to do is suggest a Ways to Use It Challenge...we've had WT's for Orchid Opulence and Glorious Green, based on the number of suggestions in this thread alone, it should be lots easier to come up with ways to use Lovely Lilac! But I still wanna see it in the official Color Challenge pantheon.

Really love that paisley one, it's so cute! And Brilliant Blue is another underused color so far as the CCs go. I think Emily just doesn't much care for Bold Brights. If you look at that spreadsheet, a lot of the CCs tend to hang out in Earth Elements/Rich Regals territory.
Maybe we should try Lovely Lilac, Yoyo Yellow, and Glorious Green...all your favorites, together in one challenge! Bwahahahaaaa!
Ok, now that I've said that, I might actually have to make a card with those colors just to see what it would look like. But for now I'm gonna finish watching the Hunchback of Notre Dame with my Sexy Hubby.
Does anyone know if we are haivng a challenge today?? I think somone said something about Emily's computer being on the fritz--just checking in to see if any one know what is going on for today??

We are having an unofficial challenge - anything with Lovely Lilac! At least until Emily gets her computer problems worked out!

Lucky for you there's a lot of suggestions in this thread to get you started
OK - I vote for Lovely Lilac, Only Orange, Pink Passion and Gable Green combo. It's gonna be a bright year next year - might as well get on the bandwagon now and use those Bold Brights!
