Color Dare #37 - Juniper

Hi! Welcome to Color My Heart! Each week we post a color combination for you to be inspired by, and you can play along by linking your project at the bottom of this post. If you're new to us, please consider joining in. We encourage you to use Close To My Heart products, but if you don't have any, just come as close as you can.

Congrats to Kristine Tanase, our prize winner from last week. She was an overachiever, and made a gorgeous set of cards with a box to go with it. Congrats, Kristine! Caroline will be contacting you to send you your prize. Don't forget to grab the Diamond badge to display on your blog.


We are starting something new this month at Color My Heart. This year we started implementing "prize week" at the end of the month. Well, we're going to continue with prize week, but now we will be picking a winner out of ALL the entries in the whole month. So be sure to play along every week for better chances of winning the prize!

Our dare this week is a single color dare:

Juniper

Color Dare #35 - Sky, Blush, & Buttercup

Welcome to the Color Dare! Congrats to Hansi, winner of last week's Irish colors dare! Don't forget to grab your badge, Hansi!


This week's colors are primary colors (red, yellow, and blue) but tints, or pastels, of these colors:

Sky
Blush
Buttercup
I used a Buttercup patterned paper from Chantilly. You can visit my blog for more details about my card.

Lesson: Tints are what you get when white is added to a color. You get a lighter shade of that color. It is also called a pastel. Pastels are great for babies and Easter. We only have about a week until Easter, so it's time to get those baskets, cards, and scrapbook layouts made!

Here are some beautiful projects by our wonderful design team:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Now it's your turn! Create a project using the featured colors, post a picture of it on your blog, then link your blog post up here. Make sure to include a link to us in your post. Please read the complete rules on our sidebar. Have fun!
