GC64: Color Challenge - Yellow, Orange & Red

Welcome to another Color Challenge on Gingersnap Creations! In keeping with the hot and sunny themes we have going on this month, the colors we'd like you to use are:

Yellow, Orange and Red

Artwork by Ali Manning

When the challenge closes on August 22, 2010, we will pick 7 Ginger Gems - fabulous creations that we feel really exemplify that challenge's objective. The Ginger Gems will appear in our wrap-up post and in a slide show in the blog bar for an entire week and their creators will have the honor of displaying our Ginger Gems blog badge.

For your chance to be eligible as a Ginger Gem or as a Home Page Artist, just follow the simple guidelines below:

1) Make a paper crafting or mixed media creation using all three colors - yellow, orange and red;

2) Post your creation to your blog or online gallery with a mention and link to this post; and

3) Come back to this post and leave a comment including a DIRECT link to your creation or use the linky application below. Remember to make it a link to the specific post or picture and not just a general link to your blog or gallery. We need to be able to find your art!

For more information on our challenges and directions on linking, please check out our FAQ page.

One random winner and seven Ginger Gems will be announced from the qualifying submissions on August 24, 2010. You have until August 22, 2010 to enter!
