Color Throwdown: 03/03/10

Hey everyone! It's my turn to throw down some colors for you and this week I have chosen some deep rich ones: Not Quite Navy, Old Olive, Ruby Red and Very Vanilla. If you don't have these exact colors please feel free to use something close. You can check out all the details of our challenge in the sidebar on the right!!

I was inspired by a favorite Cosmo Cricket pattern from the Early Bird line for my card today, and since there have been lots of things going on in the Pugliese household in the past couple weeks and more to come in the next two weeks, I chose a really simple layout. We can't wait to see what you come up with. Create your project, put it on your blog or an online gallery with the keyword CTD82 and link it below! Have fun! And I am so excited that I get to announce our March Guest Designer: Pam Speidel from Stamping with {Serendipity}!!! I have admired Pam's vintage style and attention to detail for such a long time, and we are honored to have her on the team for this month!

And finally, we noticed on Monday this past week that our little ol' blog surpassed the 500 Followers mark! To celebrate, the team members have chipped in some prizes that include stamps from DRS Designs, Basic Grey, Stampin' Up! and Stamping Bella, a Cosmo Cricket mini-deck, some Ranger distress ink, ribbon, Prima flowers, rub-ons and more and we're going to give all those goodies to one lucky participant in this week's challenge! Remember to follow the rules in the right-hand sidebar regarding linking and the deadline, and have fun! And many thanks from all of us for your support and enthusiasm each week! We love seeing your creations!
