Challenge #167 - The Double

The last day of March and the last of this month's challenges here at CAS Colours & Sketches is the delightful double! Sure you can do this!

 

We've used Stampin' Up colour names for reference; however, you may use any companies' products for your cards as long as you match our colours as closely as possible. You may also use white, ivory, kraft, or black for your card base and layers, for image outlines, or for sentiments.

Feel free to flip or rotate the sketch when creating your card.

REMEMBER, in order to be considered for our weekly winners, you must use both the sketch and the stated colours. 

Needing a bit of a kick start? Well scroll down for some inspiration from the DT. Go visit their blogs to find out more and if you've time to leave a comment or two that would be awesome.





Our challenge requirements are listed in the Challenge Rules tab.  Please read them carefully before linking your card.  Happy crafting!


Challenge End Time:  6:00 p.m. Eastern U.S. time/11:00 p.m. London U.K. time Wednesday, 6th April.

Challenge #165 - Colours

Hey! Are you ready for a new colour challenge here at CAS Colours & Sketches? Some blues combined with a pretty salmon colour this week.


We've used Stampin' Up colour names for reference; however, you may use any companies' products for your cards as long as you match our colours as closely as possible. You may also use white, ivory, kraft, or black for your card base and layers, for image outlines, or for sentiments. However, in order to be considered for our weekly winners, you must not use any other colours. 

I really hope you're going to enjoy using this combo. But if you need a little inspiration to point you in the right direction take a peek at the DT cards below:

I love that really dark blue which, in my opinion, looks fabulous combined with most colours - but remember for our challenge you should only use the three stated colours, or their near matches, plus any of the given neutrals if you'd like to be in with a chance of being picked as a winner.

Our challenge requirements are listed in the Challenge Rules tab.  Please read them carefully before linking your card.  Happy crafting!


Challenge End Time:  6:00 p.m. Eastern U.S. time/10:00 p.m. London U.K. time Wednesday, 23rd March 2016.
