I love a Color Challenge!

I love color challenges just as much as I love sketch challenges but lately it seems that I've been participating in more of the color challenges! What can I say I love COLOR!! Loved it when I was decorating homes and I love the combinations and the way they inspire the design of a card.

Jen (aka Miss Boo at SCS) has a great color challenge to start the week off at CHRISTIAN PAPER CRAFTS. Warm summer colors of red, orange and neutrals are the challenge (blue and green are acceptable in this challenge as you can see if you head over to CPC and read the "fine print"). In addition to CPC's Color Monday I've been able to incorporate it with the PLAY DATE CAFE color challenge and as you can see by the photo they are some wonderful colors to work with and what a great pic for inspiration! All the design paper used in the following two cards is from the DCWV "Cafe Mediterranean" line.

CPC-CM62 and PDCC35
