Color Dare #83 - Juniper, Lagoon, Sweet Leaf, & Skylark Yellow

Thank you for visiting the Color Dare! We hope you will find some time to play along with us this week. I really enjoyed looking through the entries from the Goldrush/Topiary challenge; Sheila will be posting the winners soon.

This week we are showcasing one of our new paper packs: Skylark. The colors are:

Juniper
Lagoon
Sweet Leaf
Skylark Yellow


If you don't have the Skylark paper, feel free to use similar colors. Skylark yellow is a sort of greenish-yellow, but feel free to use Buttercup or Sunkiss Yellow if you have them.

I made a Level 2 layout that I found on Jeanette Lynton's blog. I changed a couple of things, but for the most part it is the same. I really like the Dimensional Elements compliments that come with this pack! You can read more about it on my blog.

Our guest designer this week is Arlene Bonsma. She used these soothing colors to make a pretty sympathy card:

Now look what we have from our design team:

Color Dare #82 - Goldrush & Topiary

Thank you all who played along last week. We have quite a following on our Facebook page, and it is growing. Please visit us and like us at facebook.com/colormyheartcolordare! Thank you as well to Michelle who stepped in and got the post set up for me last week while I was sick. It's hard being 33 weeks pregnant with the stomach flu!
 
Sheila will have last week's winners posted soon.
 
This week, we are daring you to use two secondary colors:
 
Topiary
Goldrush
 

As always, feel free to use any neutrals with these colors.

I used the retired Splendor paper pack (what little scraps I have), to create this Spring layout. Not that I'll have pictures for it anytime soon! You can read more about it on my blog.


Our guest designer this week is someone special in the CTMH world. You've all probably heard of her: Vicki Wizniuk! I always appreciate her clean, eye-catching, and visually stimulating artwork. She made a super-fun pop-up card for Father's Day:
