Color Dare #117 - Choose your own Orange

Happy Friday! Happy Halloween, Happy Reformation Day! Whatever it is you're celebrating, I hope you have a good one! I've been sick this week, so excuse me that we're late, and if this post is confusing at all.  This week we have a challenge that might be perfect as a layout for those Halloween pictures.

Choose your own Orange!



Now, you may, as always, use neutrals in addition to your choice of orange, and if you need to you may use green as an accent. Here is some wonderful inspiration from our Design Team!

Gretchen Stumme - Sunset

Tina Gale - Goldrush

 

Marie Flayer - Autumn Terracotta

Lela Norris - Goldrush and Sorbet

Michelle Loncar - Goldrush

Donna Digby - Autumn Terracotta, Sunset and Goldrush

Hansi Brittain - Goldrush

Now it's your turn! Make a project using the featured colors. If you don't have the exact colors, just use the closest you have. Take a picture of your project and upload it to your blog. Make sure you link to us in your post. Next, link your post up here. See our sidebar for complete rules. Don't forget to have fun!

Color Dare #113 - Cranberry, Canary, & Glacier

This week at Color My Heart we have a tried and true color with a couple of newbies. Let's see how you like playing with them!

Cranberry
Canary
Glacier

Now as always, you don't have to use the exact colors to play along (in case you don't have the new ones). Just come as close as you can. I used a retired paper pack called Let's Get Together, and added Glacier to it. So I'm actually using Buttercup instead of Canary. Close enough!


Now let's see what our design team came up with!




Now it's your turn! Make a project using the featured colors. If you don't have the exact colors, just use the closest you have. Take a picture of your project and upload it to your blog.
