Warm Colours/Oranges and Lemons
and for you guys at home to make it easy you can choose either of these options so show us your wares!

The winner of Challenge 18/19 which closes today at noon will be announced here next week so make sure you call in for more great inspiration too, but in the meantime let's head over and see what the team have made with this week's theme!...

Zoe - Well this was a challenge as these are not colours I tend to use, and I found I only have one orange in my collection. But worry not - I used my warm browns! So the girl is from Candy Doodles Collection from Polkadoodles. I layered the image on a mix of orange and yellow card, adding a couple of brads and some washi tape.
The Graph It's I used are - 
Skin = 4120, 4115, 4155, 3120 & 4135
Hair = 3120, 3125, 3150, 3170 & 3190
Jeans = 9100, 9102, 9103, 9105 & 7180
Yellows = 1130, 1150 & 2120
Oranges = 1250, 2170, 3130 & 3170
Background = Neutral greys

Cara....I loved this challenge, it's not very often I use Orange or Yellow in my designs so this was a lovely change and i'm sure I will be using it more often, the oranges in the GI range are so rich I love them. I used this amazing image from the Dollie Daydream Goes East CDrom, the papers, sentiment and even the shaped card template came from there too!
Graph'its used:
Skin: 3120, 4155, 4150, 4115, 4135
Hair: 9503, 9505, 9507, 9509, 9909
Deep orange: 2160, 2170, 2180
Lighter orange: 2110, 2120, 2140

Kevin This is a good challenge for me as it made me use some colours I don't often use, I have had a go at a twisted easel card and used the shaker glitter embosser pens.

Anjie The image, embellishments, sentiments and the papers are from the fabulous Work & Play Collection 4 which is now available.
