Thank You

Each week at Colour Me...! we will have a creative colour challenge for you to get crafty and show us your best greeting cards, 3D projects, scrapbooking, digital or traditional paper crafts, costumes, etc. Only the colours we indicate may be used for your project. Neutrals such as black, gray, white, vanilla, skin colours and kraft are also welcome.

This week we are using...! Have fun :)


Our challenge ends on Mondays at 12:00 pm (EST). We have a few rules to keep things fun and fair!
  • Any type of paper crafty projects are welcome - greeting cards, 3D projects, scrapbooking, digital or traditional paper crafts, costumes, if it's craft we want to see it!
  • We ask that you only use the colours listed for your project and of course neutrals are always welcome.
  • Feel free to combine us with up to 3 challenges (including ours), with the exception of other colour challenges.
  • Please add our graphic to your blog with a link back to us. 
  • We reserve the right to remove any links if we feel any material submitted is offensive or found to be in poor taste, we are all here to have a good time!
  • HAVE FUN!!!

A friend of mine directed me to a link to a FABulously talented crafting lady's blog and after watching her amazing tutorial I knew I had to give this technique a try. This is one that will take some practice for sure but I am happy with this my first attempt :)

    Hayley this is gorgeous! I would never have thought to combine the colors you did on the blossom, but it works perfectly. Love the water ripples, too.
