Since Toni is off gallivanting in Hawaii (lucky!) I get to be the Color Challenge Hipster Hostess with the Mostess this week! I'm really excited about this one because I L-O-V-E color!! I'm not a beige girl by any means - I'm a hot pink and orange girl! And speaking of those colors, here's your challenge for the week - make a card/project using my three favorite colors orange, pink, and chocolate brown! Can't wait to see what you come up with!
(Thanks to Leigh for this awesome graphic! She's soooo talented!)
I actually made my card for the last release for The Cat's Pajamas but it's not on the TCP website and I've never posted it to my blog so I thought this would be the perfect time to showcase it. I think this is my favorite TCP card I've ever made. Probably because I love these colors so much! Hope you like it! And remember to check out the other DT member's blogs (over there on the left) to see more yummy creations!
All images: The Cat's Pajamas
Paper: Glitter stack DCWV; Neenah Crest Solar White; CTMH
Ink: ColorBox
Accessories: Flower punch - Marvy; PrismaColor pencils and blending pencil; Corner Rounder punch - EK Success; brad - MM
Here are the TCP Tuesday deets- (lifted from Ana's blog)-
1. Each a week one of The Cat’s Pajamas DT members will host a challenge.
2. The challenges will vary {stamp, color, theme, sketch, etc.}
3. You will have until {this} Saturday night to complete the challenge.
4. Link your project on this week’s hostess’ challenge announcement. This week you will link your project to this post.
5. TCP stamps are not required, but of course, highly encouraged. {Unless it is a challenge calling for a specific stamp}
6. There will be one winner each month. They will be deemed that month’s Swankiest Stamper and get $25 in Cat’s Cash {money to spend on the TCP site!}.
7. When uploading to SCS, please use the keyword TCPTUES17 for this challenge.
8. Alma will post the entries from the week the following Monday on her blog.
9. The newly crowned Swanky Stamper will be announced on the First of the Month and have his/her winning entry posted on The Cat’s Pajamas website where he/she will reign for the entire month.
Now go get stamping! :)
Ha! This may be my favorite TCP card you have ever made, too! Love it - and love the color combo!

What a FUN card! I really should get a crown for my Sprinkle, since it fits her so well. I should also check out that glitter stack!
Here is my card. It is heavy on the orange and light on the pink, which is backwards to what I would normally do.

Hi,
I'm a newbie to your site and to the blogging world-- I don't have any TCP stamps yet, but plan on buying some. They are so very cute!!! :) However, I just LOVED the Color Challenge, so I went ahead and created a card. I especially love pinks & browns together.
It was a fun project.
Here's my card:

Thanks for the inspiration!

Hi Katie,
I LOVE this combo of colors - and so I had to make a card. I don't have any TCP stamps yet - but was so psyched to see the sale there this weekend! here is my humble offering: http://sunnysankari.blogspot.com/
I had so much fun making this card! Can't wait to use this color combo again soon!
Thanks!

All right, hopefully this week I will do this correctly. Had a hard time starting it, but I do like the way it came out. Pink, Orange and Brown, who knew these colors would look so good together.
