Color Dare #167 - Goldrush, Chocolate, & Kraft

Hello everyone. Sarah here. We have a great fall color challenge for you this week, fitting of early November. But first I'd just like to say what a wonderful 3 1/2 years it has been for me posting these color challenges every week and watching you all participate and enjoy it. I will be stepping down from making the posts, because life has just gotten in the way of less important things. Having my fourth child and adding homeschooling into the mix has been quite stressful, although rewarding.

So I'd like to thank my ever-faithful design team member, Marie Flayer for stepping up and taking over challenges for me. I'd like to thank Gretchen, Donna, Peachy, Michelle, and Cat for being faithful and continuing their roles here! And I'd like to thank all of you who follow along with us and sometimes play along and share your wonderful inspirations with us! Keep up the good work. I will still be participating, but on a limited basis so you won't forget me!

Now enough with the sappiness, let's get on to the fun stuff! Here are our colors for this week:

Goldrush
Chocolate
Kraft

Here is what our wonderful Design Team has come up with:

Cat Nowak

Michelle Loncar

Donna Digby

Peachy Lamb

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!
