Welcome to the new Colour Challenge here at the Ribbon Girl blog, the home of the Ribbon Girl Design Team
This month we want to see your fabulous creations using this glorious colour palette
As usual we have two prizes for the winner of our challenge:
Our rules are very simple - create a new project (does not have to be a card, we would love to see all of your lovely handcrafted projects) following the colour theme, blog about it mentioning this challenge then use the InLinkz button at the bottom of this post to link to your project. Please don't back link to old projects. The challenge will close on Saturday December 1st at 9PM (UK time)
