Color Dare #62 Olive & Sweet Leaf

Unfortunately, I am late again. Yesterday was my daughter's 7th birthday, and I was working really hard (harder than I should!) to make it special for her. So now I have time to post this. Next week I will get back to posting Friday mornings.

Here are the winners from last week:

Nancy wins the Color Dare Diamond!


Pam wins the Color Dare Emerald!


Kristen wins the Color Dare Ruby!


Dawn wins the Color Dare Sapphire!

Congrats girls! Don't forget to grab your badge from the top tab!

This week we have a monochromatic color scheme for you:

Olive
Sweet Leaf


Lesson: Monochromatic colors are different shades of the same hue. This week we have a darker and a lighter shade of green for you to work with.

I used Olive and Sweet Leaf for the goodie bags and the party hat for my daughter's space-themed party:

Color Dare #61 - Olive, Autumn Terracotta, & Goldrush

Sorry I'm so late posting this week. My first trimester is almost over, I promise! I've been having evening morning sickness, which is when I usually do my crafting and blogging, so hopefully that will go away soon! Here are the winners from last week's Sarita colors challenge:

Terry wins the Color Dare Diamond!


Kristine wins the Color Dare Emerald!


Arlene wins the Color Dare Ruby!


Pam wins the Color Dare Sapphire!


Congrats, ladies! Please pick up your badges from the top tab and display them on your blog!

This week we have some classic fall colors for you:

Autumn Terracotta
Goldrush
Olive


Lesson: We are using shades of orange and green this week. These are two secondary colors. When you use two primary, or two secondary colors together, this is called a dyadic color scheme.

I made a card using the Make it From your Heart Volume 2 pattern 22.
Fall is my favorite season! I love these colors together. You can see more details on my blog.

Our guest designer this week is Michelle Hughes. Check out her blog to see 3 more beautiful cards!

Now here's some inspiration from our design team:
 
 
 
 
 
 

Now it's your turn! Create a beautiful Fall project, upload it to your blog, and link your post up here. Don't forget to read our complete rules on the sidebar. Have Fun!
