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.

👉 Ready to join in the fun? Come play along with us at Color My Heart Color Dare! You can check out all the details and share your project here: Color Dare Challenge. We’d love to see what you create! 💜
