Oh how I love me some fall, but let's take a break from nature's splendor just a bit and focus on our other gorgeous colors. That right, my challenge to you today is to NOT use red, orange, or yellow . Brown can be used as an accent, but not your main color. Pink is a version of red, but not really a fall color, so go for it!
Be sure to use the keyword WT399 when uploading your fabulously un-fall creations.
See all the creations for this challenge HERE .
Here is my creation that also works for a HYCCT challenge - you have 1 more week to get those done.

I love the warm colors of red, yellow and orange -- so this was quite challenging, especially because I wanted to make a Christmas card. Here's the result --
Thanks Michelle! That was tough for me as I'm a red person! so into Snowmen right now but I did come up with 3 cards. still challenging myself to use my new stuff..
I just bought the new A2 matting dies A&B from spellbinders!!! OMG I'm in love! I have NEVER been able to get a cutter to cut straight EVERY time! I bought both sets A & B one in 1/4" and the other in 1/8" I did what Cindy said to do on the video I wrote an A on all and a B on all so I can keep the separate!

Bummer, I made two cards and then realised there was some yellow in my blue tit. I should have coloured it as a bluebird after all :-(. And all the trouble I went to not to colour my berries red or orange but to use pink!!
Oh well, at least I have one card that does fit: HYCCT1218 It's Cold!
It's fun to do non-fall colors! I used a dc snowman from my stamping friends, and my new set- Espress Yourself from Stampin Up. Added some ribbons for fun! Here's Friendship Snowman

I chose to use blue and vanilla for these Christmas cards using No Fall Colors! Thanks for a real challenge for me, Michelle - I am always really drawn to the autumn color tones, so you pulled me away today and got me focused on the Christmas cards that I am way behind on!
Would you consider kraft counting as brown or not, Michelle?
You can ALWAYS use kraft for my challenge!!!! :cool:
