Color Challenge

There is a new blog in the world...probably one of thousands that are started each day.  It is called Heart 2 Heart Challenges and it is a Close to My Heart Consultant design team.  So, I thought I would give it a try.  Haven't done to many challenges in my creative time.  Sometimes it is a challenge to find time to create but with CTMH products and some inspiration from these wonderfully creative ladies, I think I will try to stretch myself a bit.

The first challenge was a color challenge. 


My first thought was to use the August Stamp of the Month for 2010!  Yes, we just received our new idea books for the summer months (coming to you in May) and the set of stamps.  So, here it my card. 


The pattern was inspired by our how to book Wishes, "Up in the Corner".  I used Twitterpated Paper Packet x 7118b, Sweet Leaf Ribbon Rounds z1125, Basic Buttons z1206, and in addition to the ink colors in the challenge, I added Goldrush for the two step stamping of the flower.  The stamp set, which will be available August 1st - 31st, Something Splendid D1424.  You can get it for a great discount and even for Free! 

To see other results from this challenge, visit the blog here, and then click on the individual names of those who have participated.  Enjoy the inspiration and maybe even give it a try!

    This is so cute! I can't wait to play with my Something Splendid som. Twitterpated seems to be quite the popular (and a great) choice for the chocolate B&T.
