June Crate Color Challenge w/Tara Anderson

 

 

Hello everyone! Tara here and that can only mean one thing: that I get to share another month of Crate Paper's Color Challenge! . With the start of June and summer for some of us, I wanted to create a palette that was both summery and bold. I think the start of summer is always a little exciting and this months colors reflect that feeling. Think: sunny afternoon picnic in the park. For June's color challenge I've chosen: Watermelon Red, Peony Pink and Sunny Yellow.

 

-The June Color Palette-

 

 

Just a few guide-lines for the challenge before we start:

- You may submit a card, layout or project to be eligible. Projects need to be submitted by midnight (EST) June 12th. Please email your work to: cpblog@cratepaper.com

- You may use the colors in any proportion you wish, as long as you use all 3 colors in the palette. And you may add black, white or kraft paper to the colors.

- Projects must use at least 75% Crate Paper - you may mix any paper lines you like, old and new.

- The winner will be announced on June 15th and I'll share some of my favorite projects here on the blog. The winner will be selected based on creativity and quality of work.

I created a couple of mini albums for this challenge, but at the last minute decided to make a LO. I share my mini's later on!

 

 
 
and more beautiful projects of this months color palette from the CP girls:

From Anne Jo, this sweet little canvas.

 
 

Jenny Chesnick created a cute layered gift-card holder.
{I love the shadow box look to her card ~ so pretty!}

 

 Heidi Sonboul created 2 projects for the challenge. Her LO fits the theme of this months color palette perfectly! Watermelon & Daisy's!

 

plus, a very summery thank-you card.

 

I'm excited to see what everyone creates using this month's color palette. I hope you like it as much as we do! And don't forget to pop back into the Crate Paper Blog starting on Monday for a week full of gorgeous and creative wedding ideas and a few giveaways too!

Happy Creating! ~Tara
