Color Dare #204--Eggplant, Flaxen, Sweet Leaf and Colonial White

Thanks to all the talented crafters who participated in last week's Sorbet, Canary, Crystal Blue and White Daisy challenge. We are so happy to have you sharing your art in our gallery! 

Welcome back to another Color My Heart Color Dare challenge where we invite you to use the specified Close to My Heart colors to create something that you like.  (Of course if you don't have these CTMH colors yet you may substitute similar colors so you can still join in on the fun!)  This week we are challenging you to use all and only the following colors:  Eggplant, Flaxen, Sweet Leaf and Colonial White.



Here is some inspiration from our awesome Design Team.  If you have a chance please stop by our blogs to see how we made these projects and leave a comment.

Next, take a picture of it and upload it to your blog. Make sure you include our link and challenge picture in your post. Then link your post to our site, using the link to your post, not your blog. See our sidebar for complete rules. Most importantly, have fun!  We look forward to visiting your blogs and commenting.
