Now it's your turn. Take some time this week to create a project using these colors. If you don't have the exact colors, just use the closest ones you have. 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 blog post, not your entire blog. See our sidebar for complete rules. Most importantly have fun!

Color Dare #164 - Sunset, Eggplant, Black, Slate, & Whisper (Pear Optional)

Hi! Welcome to the Color Dare! Sorry I'm late this week. This has been maybe the busiest week of my life! (Ok, maybe not, but we do have a lot going on.) Anyway, this week we are challenging you to use colors from our new Halloween paper pack - Nevermore.

Sunset
Eggplant
Black
Slate
Whisper
Pear (optional)

For some reason Pear is listed in the colors for this pack, but it is not included in the kit. So you can choose to add it or not, it's up to you. As always, you don't have to have this kit to play along. Just use the closest colors you have.

Here's what our wonderful design team came up with this week!
