Color Dare Challenge #668

This week’s Color Dare Challenge #668 is all about bright, happy colors—red and yellow! 🌟 We were allowed to use the specific shades shown in the challenge graphic, plus add in black, white, neutrals, or even a touch of gold metallic.

I couldn’t resist pulling out another sweet little die set from the 2024 Spellbinders Advent Calendar. This time, I made a fun little 3x3 card that could represent just about any drink you imagine…but I decided mine had to be lemonade! 🍋

I love how cheerful and summery this turned out. The bold pop of red for the straw pairs perfectly with the sunny yellow drink. I kept the background simple so the colors could really shine, and I finished it off with the sentiment “Have A Sweet Day.” To add just a touch more detail, I sprinkled in a few Honeybee Enamel Dots for accents.

This mini card makes me smile because it’s so versatile—you could tuck it into a lunchbox, add it to a small gift, or even use it as a little “just because” note for someone who needs a pick-me-up.

Now it’s your turn—how will you use this red and yellow combo? Will you go bold, soft, or maybe add in some metallic shine? I can’t wait to see all the creative projects that come out of this challenge.

Color My Heart Color Challenge #666

This week’s Color Challenge is such a fun one—and honestly, it felt like it was made just for me! Orange is my second favorite color, and teal is my third, so I was already excited before I even sat down at my desk. Pair those bold, happy colors with a soft cream neutral, and I knew this was going to be an easy (and super enjoyable!) challenge.

I decided to pull out a little hot air balloon die that came in the 2024 Spellbinders Advent Calendar. Isn’t it just the cutest? It’s been sitting in my stash waiting for the right project, and these colors gave me the perfect excuse to finally use it.

At first, I wasn’t sure what direction to take, but I quickly realized it made the sweetest little gift tag! I love how a tag can stand alone as a small project, but it also has so much versatility—you can pop it onto a card front, tuck it into a gift bag, or even use it as an embellishment on a scrapbook page. Don’t you just love when one little project can do double (or triple!) duty?

I can’t wait to see how you all use this week’s combo. Do you lean more toward the bold side with the orange and teal, or will you keep it softer by letting the cream be your star? However you play, it’s always so fun to see all the different creative takes.

Color My Heart Color Dare Design Team!! Join in on Challenge #664!

I am a new team member for the Color My Heart Color Dare challenge blog!

Each week there is an amazing new color challenge! This week is #664. You can only use the colors listed for the challenge. This week, you have to use at least two shades of blue & you can add any neutrals, black, white, & silver metallic.

I used the Food Stand die sets from MFT to make this darling coffee stand card! I love to make tent cards but they always slide flat. I started making them with their own built in stands! For this card, I added a couple of cute little coffee cups to complement the cards.
