OK Girls-its time for all of you to join in the Challenge!! This should warm you up on a Monday.
I have seen a lot of you have joined in on the Pink Cat Studio {love} train. Now I want to challenge you to use some of those image’s with a color challenge 😀 (You don’t HAVE to own PCS stamps to participate, but if you do please try! Keeps it fun)
Each month the PCS design team has one member issue a challenge for the others. This week it was my turn. I chose this as my inspiration of color: white, pale yellow, olive, Caribbean and navy. Just use whatever colors you have that are close.
American Crafts A La Carte Collection in Quiche
Now the additional part to the challenge is you HAVE to use a CIRCLE element! That means a button, tag, paper-something round! Sky is the limit! OK!
BOUNUS for YOU!! Try my sketch 😀 (you can mix up the colors of course)
Here is my Not so PINK cat-Blooming Birthday Wishes
This card uses Crafty Kitty Plate 1 (Yes! ATS sells PCS!!!) Isn’t it SOOOO cute! I loved her. Its like she is watering my pretty bridal confetti flower. I kept the Caribbean color as an accent color. I had this paper from SU! for at least a year or 2. Can’t remember. It really came in handy for my challenge. I wanted to use that paper I picked for the inspiration, but that would be TOO easy. Almost considered cheating! LOL! I used my white gel pen for the flowers in the sentiment
She is, of course colored with my Copic markers 😀
I hope you have fun with this. Send us a link here to your creation. ALSO-Be sure to check out all the DT member’s blogs to see their take on the challenge!
I think these are such happy colors. Perfect thing to perk up a Monday!
Can’t wait to hear what you think and see your very own version-
Lauren

Hey Lauren ~ I have to write this really REALLY fast, as I want to be the very first lurker to reply to your post today 😉
Aren’t Pink Cat’s designs SOOooo adorable? Combined with your incredible talents, your “Cat Blooming B’Day Wish” creation is charming. Since I do have a few sets of PCS’ designs, I might just shock everyone and participate in your colour challenge ~~ yes small miracles do exist! =)
If you get a chance Lauren ~~ I know you’ve talked about them before, but where do these “bridal confetti flowers” come from? Do you make them with a punch or are they pre-made???? They always look delicate and rich, so I MUST have them. *smile*
Hope you are feeling better~~Get well quick without sharing it back to one of the kids or DH.
Lauren, I especially love how you crafted flowers to match your DP!! This is a fabulous card and your copic coloring is awesome.
I love your card! And those bridal flowers are too cute. I’ve been looking and looking for some, but since we don’t have a Michael’s here (none in Hawaii-gasp!) I haven’t found them. I’m probably going to end up ordering them online if I can find them that way, or picking up a ton of them when I get back to the mainland… ANYWAYs, thanks for the wonderful eye candy. Have a happy monday!
Your card is precious! I love those flowers since you introduced me to them…I just don’t remember I have them, but when I do, watch out!
Gorgeous card ,so pretty ,love the sketch too my have to give that a go too xxxx
They are at Michales in the Bride section! They are shimmery white or ivory (now come in pink and caribbean), the alos have an embossed edge! In a paint can bucket for a whopping $4.99! You get a TON for that price since they are suppose to be scattered on your tables (oh the horror!)

I love these colors together. I think when my senior moves out next year, I will paint my scrap room in these colors.
I am stamping all day in honor of my 19th wedding anniversary. I am having a blast. The minute my family was out the door-out came my stamps! 😉
Hope you have a good day!

Hi everyone. : )
Lauren, the card is cute, I love PCS. As I have stated before I am just getting in again from being absent for many years, but plan on getting some of their stuff. Lets just say everyone’s stuff. LOL
I love the color of copic markers, even though people have said they are similar to SU they seem brighter or something. Not sure, Umm?
The sketch is awesome and I am going to try to make the challenge. Kinda nervous, being it’s my first one and all.
Have a fun week everyone!
