It's midnight on the East Coast, so let's get this new challenge party going!!!! This is the first week of the new challenge rotation.

This week is a Color Challenge... I challenge you to use the following colors, and ONLY the following colors, to create a card, tag, bag, altered items, whatever you wish. No other colors can be used, though. Your colors are: Grey, White, and Red.




This card was inspired by Kristin Moore's card.

Great csrd, Lora.  Love that ornament and ribbon.

Hmmmm... well, according to Crayola silver is a totally different crayon than grey.

But, if you absolutely positively have no grey anywhere in your possession of papers, ribbons, embellishments, inks, etc..... then I will accept silver as grey.

I'd really like to see grey, red, and white... because we don't use grey much and I have found lately that it is a very versatile, neutral color.

With that being said, I don't want anyone to have to go purchase anything because of the color challenge.... unless you need an excuse to go back to Hobby Lobby (Terrie!) Ha!

Thanks, Ivanka. The card and palette were inspired by a card you pinned on Pinterest. Ha! I loved it so much. Smiley

LOVE this card Lora. And that embossing folder! Looks great!

I have no idea if I have grey in my stash...I'll have to do a little looking. But, I do have to make some Christmas tags this week. And I happen to have that ornament punch...do I feel a CASE coming on??? I think I might.
