Last night I couldn’t make a decision.  This isn’t news, by the way – I often have a hard time making decisions (Vanilla Swiss Almond or Deep Dark Chocolate??  Oatmeal Chocolate Chip or Peanut Butter Fudge??)  Last night’s choice, however, had nothing to do with food and everything to do with color.

The Color Dare Challenge this week was Regal Rose, Tempting Turquoise, Certainly Celery and Whisper White – a combination I would choose myself, so an easy one for me to work with.    My problem was proportions.  When I start a color challenge, the first thing I like to do is determine which color will be the dominant color – usually the card base – and which colors will be secondary.  I’m a blues-and-greens girl myself, so I knew Regal Rose would be an accent color, but I couldn’t decide which color to choose for my card base.

What do you think?  Does it work in Tempting Turquoise?

Or is it better in Certainly Celery?

• Happy Moments, Crazy for Cupcakes, Itty Bitty Backgrounds and You & Moi stamp sets
• Certainly Celery, Regal Rose, Tempting Turquoise and Whisper White card stock
• Patterns II Designer Series Paper (retired)

• Ruby Red and Tempting Turquoise Stampin’ Write markers
• Scallop Trim, Corner Rounder, Photo Corner and Modern Label punches
• Piercing tool and mat, Fresh Favorites II Buttons, Stampin’ Sponges and Linen Thread

I still don’t know which one I prefer.

And if that sketch looks familiar, yes, it’s the Mojo Monday sketch for this week.  For some reason I’m fighting the circle thing.  Call it rebellion.  More likely I just need some Deep Dark Chocolate and everything will be fine.
