The weather has been so rainy and cold, with a mix of ice, sleet, and snow, that I was pleased to see the cheerful color board for Color Dare #690. This biweekly challenge runs through Thursday, February 19, 2026, and requires that you use at least three of the four colors. Other than neutrals and metallics, no other colors may be added. I selected all four colors, then added white cardstock and black ink as neutrals.
Using a mask with an oval shape cut from a die, the inside of the oval was brushed with the four colors directly onto a white cardstock panel. It's always interesting to see how blended colors create new ones. The pink and yellow look a little peachy, and the pink and blue have presented a hint of purple.
Next, green die-cut leaf images, touched up with Copics, were adhered across the oval, followed by three flowers that were colored with Copics. The sentiment was added, the front panel edges were lightly brushed with blue ink, and the piece was mounted on a white card base. The inside of the card was decorated to coordinate with the card front.
The Design Team invites you to view their card display. We hope you'll join us at Color Dare #690.
Thank you,
Melanie
