CAS Colours and Sketches #580 Colour Challenge

 Good Morning Everyone and Welcome to my blog,

We are back with another year of CAS Colours and Sketches Challenges. Joanne is hosting this month's challenges. She is starting off with a great color palette for our latest Color Challenge. I found these colors screamed Spring.

For the color challenges, you must use all of the challenge colors provided. You can also use neutral colors, such as black, just be sure the challenge colors are the most prominent on your card. Stampin' Up names are used for reference, but you may use any other brands as long as they closely match the challenge colors listed.

*Please remember to keep your card CAS! As a reminder, 'clean and simple' (CAS) is defined as "uncluttered, with a lot of white or open space, and minimal layers and embellishments". Subtle texture or shading is okay as long as it does not distract from the main focal point of your card. 

I hope you join us at CC&S this week. We would love to see what you create for this Color challenge. You can enter your project from now until 7:00pm EST on Monday, March 16, 2026. You can find all the rules and requirements on the challenge page.
