Hello Fall (CD 621)

Hello to all! The Tic Tac Toe format is my favorite of the Color Dare Challenge styles. This is Color Dare Challenge #621 beginning on Friday, October 4, 2024, and ending on Thursday, October 17, 2024. It's simple - using the color board below, select three colors in a row as if you are playing Tic Tac Toe, and use only those to create your card. You may use any number of colors but they must appear on the board. Neutrals and metallics are free to use.

My initial selection was from the middle row - Capri, Pumpkin, and Jade. As my card progressed I added Sundance, Peach, Desert Rose, Evergreen, and Honey Butter. I did not have precise colors but substituted them with similar colors from my stash. I found a piece of plaid paper with several colors from the board plus charcoal as a neutral and decided to use it. In the end, I have all of the colors except Scarlet.

Rectangular layers were adhered at an angle to a white card base. The sentiment was hand-drawn onto another die-cut rectangle and added with thin foam tape. Next, the die-cut elements were touched up with markers and added. A few gems were also included. The inside was decorated with a scrap of plaid paper and a few die-cut leaves.

We would enjoy seeing your card so visit the Challenge 621 Blog and join the fun!

Thank you for stopping by my blog. Your comments are appreciated.
