OCC Challenge - Color Challenge

Hello OCC friends!! Thanks to all who played in last week's *recycling* Challenge, it was a so fun to see everyone's creations!!!

Before we start with the challenge, we would like to announce the winner for the Innovation Stamp Creations giveaway. Congratulations Julie from The Write Stuff. Please email us your address so we can get your goodies out to you.

This week, Silke is challenging us to use *our own* favorite Color Comb on a card or project - how easy is that??? We can't wait to see all of the fun color combinations!!!

Our Creative Corner would like to welcome our guest designer Julia Betemps from Little Paper Shop. Julia is generously giving two stamp set's Butterflies and Beautiful Things away for this weeks prize.



To play along, just post your card or project to your blog or gallery, then include a link in the Mr. Linky form at the bottom of this post so we can all easily find each other. If you upload to SCS, remember to use keyword: OCCC. To qualify for the prize drawing, have your card or project linked here by noon EST on Friday, May 1st.

Let's check out these colorful combinations...

For summer, beachy type cards, I love to match up SU's Tempting Turquoise, Pretty in Pink and Certainly Celery. This time I added some Basic Grey Euphoria paper too. Great samples this week. Thanks for the challenge!

Hi from Australia! I really loved this challenge. I chose pink and green - very girly colours for my 7 year old niece's birthday.
Good luck everyone - all your cards are fabulous!

Laurie said...

I'm usually more of a red kind of girl, but pink has really been catching my interest lately. Almost all of my Valentine cards were pink this year.

Pink & brown are it for me right now. Linked to my blog.

I try not to look at the dt's samples before I make mine....love what all of you posted!

Helen said...
