Challenge #226 - 54321 Create!

This weeks Challenge is a 54321 challenge.  To start choose 5 patterns, then 4 colors, 3 photos, 2 (at least) embellishments and 1 washi tape...easy peasy right?

Julia
Hi friends, you can see that I used tons of patterns from border strips, scraps and even washi tape, 4 colors, 3 photos (1 larger and 2 smaller), 2 embellishments (enamel dots, heart cut outs, and even the metal diamond shapes on the tags) and 1 washi tape ( I have the gold, black, and chevron).

Martha Lucia
The base of my page is Whisper White. The five patterns are on the symbol and numbers, the 4 colors are used on the ombre technique, the two embellishments are the dandelion buttons on each side and the washi tape is on the upper part. I created this page using My Memories Suite 6 Digital Program.

Gail

My five patterns are the base page (Teresa Collins) and blocks from a 6x6 Authentique paper pad.  My four colours are black, beige, red and blue.  My two embellishments are brads and twine and my washi tape is at the bottom of the navy dotted block. I used one of this month's PageMaps sketches. Please see my blog for full details.  

Sarah

#225 Colour Challenge

Hi, this is Beth. Heather is recuperating from surgery, so I'm bringing you the details of her awesome color challenge for this week.

I looked through my paper stash and found retired Stampin' Up! colors Green Galore and Orchid Opulance and current color Bermuda Bay.  These are the closest I could come to Heather's color choices.  Feel free to use any brand of paper or ink and use similar colors already in your stash.  We can't wait to see what you come up with.  Heather we wish you a speedy recovery!  Please see all the design team's creations below.

Here are some ATC cards that Heather created:

Shirley

Gail

Here's my card. I made my own background paper (under the "life is good" diecut) using alcohol inks.  

Julia

I dug deep into my stash to find a paper kit with the correct colors, it's from Cloud 9 Designs from 2007...yes 2007. Don't forget to stop my blog to see the close-ups.

Majo

I used Darkroom Door stamps for the background and the image my card. The sentiment is a stamp by Skipping Stones Design.

Tammy C.

I so LOVE these colors.  I had such a fun time with this challenge.  I had some wooden letters in my project bin that I have had for some time.  I have finally made good use of them :)  Made with Heartfelt Creations stamps/dies and paper from the Enchanted Sea Collection.  Stop by my blog to see all of the details!

Khristina 

I absolutely love these colors but I had a hard time creating a layout using them. There are not nearly enough purple scrapbooking products in this world in my opinion. Here is the layout that I ended up creating. I can't wait to see what you create.

Lori

Beth

I love the colors Heather chose for this challenge.  Here's my quick and easy 3x3 card.

Tina

I love this color combination and was surprised how much of the mint green I found in my stash

#223 Highlights

I am so sorry everyone!  It looks like we forgot to do a highlights post for Shirley's challenge of heat embossing so here we go

Pamellia's card has some amazing layers and textures to it!  The heat embossing on the metal embellishments was really cool to see!

The heat embossing and then coloring on Lilian's card is a great combination!

I loved the theme of Kathryn's card and the heat embossing of those big bold letters really stands out!

Don't forget to grab your blog badge from the sidebar.  Congratulations ladies!
Thank you again for everyone who played along and so sorry for the late posting!
