Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
It's time for a new challenge at Color Hues.
This month Sheri picked our colors. She chose....
I die cut and watercolored one of my favorite flower dies from Canson watercolor paper
and colored with re-inkers. I really like these colors together, especially for flowers!
A two layered Elegant frame over a piece of embossing made a good
place to mount this flower.
Now let's go and see what my talented friends and our
fantastic Guest Designer Amanda have done to inspire you.
I hope you'll create a card using Purple & Artichoke and add it to the gallery at
Challenge ends at 9:00 AM on September 29th.
The winners will be posted an hour before our next challenge and the overall
winner will have the opportunity to be a future Guest Designer.
Most importantly, just have fun!

GREEN!! Oh, happy days - it seems like a bonus, doesn't it? lol
I adore your beautiful bloom, Bonnie! The frames, embossing, and lovely sentiment are sure to make someone happy they are one year older!

Oh Bonnie this is just awesome! One of my favorite color combos and your design is PERFECT! (fits our CYHTP challenge and my Sisterhood 'frames' challenge . . . just sayin' lol)
Your lovely purple flower takes center stage with all the texture as supporting roles, Bonnie. Beautiful card!
Beautiful!!! Yes, purple & artichoke are the perfect color combo for flowers and your flower is so pretty, along with the lovely embossing and frame die cut. Love it all.
STUNNING! Wow, this is amazing, every little aspect - flower & colors, embossing, frame -- they all are so perfect together, Bonnie!
So very lovely. x
That is one pretty purple color - or should I say shade of purple.

Love the pop of color from you single flower! This is just lovely, Bonnie!
You do white on white like no one else Bonnie, and the POP of color from the bloom looks perfect on the embossed and framed white section! You nailed this challenge my friend...absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! Hugs. :0)
Love how you've combined the two embossed panels Bonnie and the frame is a lovely touch. Super take on the colours too. :)
I am definitely going to try your white on white layered embossing technique! I just love the clean look. It really shows off your floral beautifully!
I love this color combo and yes indeed perfect for flowers! Beautiful embossing with the perfect framed center to highlight your lovely flower!
So pretty, those colors definitely make me lean to flowers.
Those colours look so good and the embossing adds such lovely dimension whilst keeping the flower the star of the show xx
A white background is a great way to showcase a beautiful flower such as the one you watercolored, Bonnie. The bonus is all the interest with the lovely double embossing and the frame, giving the flower a perfect landing spot. So, so gorgeous!
A beautiful CAS design, Bonnie. I love that you Embossed the center panel. You always come up with the perfect layouts.
The beautifully coloured purple and green die cut flower looks great over the contrasting embossed textures of the background and the pretty shaped panel behind it Bonnie, and in white a perfect contrast, and finished with a lovely stamped and die cut sentiment. x
Beautiful card Bonnie. I LOVE the challenge colours for this pretty bloom. xx
A CAS beauty that showcases two great colors! I love all the texture from the embossing under that unique frame, too. Just.so.pretty!
Beautiful use of the colours! And wonderful layering of dry embossing.
Your single flower is certainly the star of your beautiful stage. Gorgeous!

You know I'm a fan of CAS designs, and this is a wonderful one! Using one embossing folder inside the frame and another for the background was a brilliant idea! One classy card!!!
This card is a truly intricate little gem. I love the embossed flowers in the background, beautifully enclosed within an elegant frame, and that purple flower completes the card, fitting the color challenge perfectly. A beautiful, beautiful card, my dear Bonnie.

So pretty. A CAS-tastic inspiration These colour hues are one of my favourite colour combos for florals.
