I have been guest designing for the color challenges each Tuesday in June, at Splitcoast Stampers. I have enjoyed creating each card using specific colors.
CC951 used the colors Berry Burst, Shaded Spruce, and Lemon Lolly with the dessert of flowers. I used Berry Burst for the brick wall and the center flower. Shaded spruce was used on each flower stem. I do not own Lemon Lolly, so I substituted Gina K Designs Lemon Drop. I added neutrals of Misty Moonlight for the sky and Crumb Cake for the top of my fence and a background layer. The flowers are from the Art Gallery set.
CC952 had colors of Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana, and Granny Apple Green. The dessert was using a die cut or punch. My cupcake is a triplets die designed by Stephanie Bernard for Sizzix, very retired. I found the greeting in a Gina K Designs set along with the stars. The small greeting is from a SU set. This was fun to create.
CC953 used the colors Balmy Blue, Azure Afternoon, and Sweet Sorbet with the dessert of added a favorite green. I used a mixture of Lawn Fawn Jalapeño and Freshly Cut Grass for my leaves. I used the stamp set Fresh Cut Flowers with coordinating dies for my flower. The hello is from a My Favorite Things set. I ran the Azure Afternoon rectangle layers through the Subtle embossing folder as they needed a bit of texture. I am quite happy with this card.
CC954 uses the colors Blueberry Bushel, Real Red, and white with a dessert of patriotic. My flag card uses Stamp Simply Grand Old Flag set. I added stars to the background with Lawn Fawn star dies. I embossed the background first with the SU stars folder. I have made this kind of card several times over the last few years and all went to a nursing home.
My door card has a wreath made the the challenge colors. I saw this wreath on Pinterest and added my own spin with the door. This door is from Holiday Frame and Holiday Frame fillers illustrated by Melanie Muenchinger.
I enjoyed creating for this months color challenges. All are available to participate in as the challenges never close. Thanks for reading all about my month of guest designing and what I created.

Lisa, theses are all great cards! Love the ones for the 4th of July! Will be saving a copy of all of them for inspiration.
Thank you! I have kept a card made by Judy with the flag in my stamp set case. I pull it out every year for inspiration.
Oh my gosh Lisa, these are all awesome. I especially like the 4th of July wreath.
Thank you! I like the wreath as well. I really wanted to make something that I hadn’t done before.
All of these are great Lisa. I can’t decide on a favourite as I like them all.
Thank you! I enjoyed creating with these challenges.
What delightful cards. Love the red white and blue wreath on the door.
Thank you! The wreath was fun to create, especially adding the door.
Congratulations on your guest designing color challenges and these beautiful cards. Each and every one is pretty amazing and I cannot chose a favorite.
Thank you! I enjoyed creating each one. I tend to get in a slump and this helped me get a bit more creative as I knew a lot of people would be looking.
So much inspiration and fabulous use of the set colors
Thank you! I enjoyed creating each card. Now I need to send these.
Love all of your cards Lisa! It’s fun to have challenges that stretch us.
Thank you!
These all look great! I really like the fun cupcake card with the vivid colors and interesting angles for your back drop. Your two floral cards are pretty. And I love the idea of using the Holiday Frame stamp to create your door and love both your patriotic designs.
