Two Colours Challenges, What FUN!

Those who know me know I LOVE a great colour challenge!!! It is sure a REAL challenge when we are encouraged to use colours which have retired. Of course we always have the option of using a close enough colour but I always like to try my best to play along with the challenge totally... 

So it pays to hoard paper is what I am trying to say hehehehe

Card #1 was created with The Colour Throwdown in mind...




Card #2 was created with ColourQ in mind...
