Doing something a little different this month Cherries. Before you scroll down to the challenge, you must do Part 1 and Part 2 first. I'm putting the links to them here. If you haven't done them yet click the links below first. No peeking!
March Music Challenge Part 1
March Music Challenge Part 2
Now scroll…






























Here is the challenge. Some of you have already figured out where I am going with this lol.
For Part 1
Find the band or recording artist that you picked below and note the color in their name. This will be the color of your background. Your background MUST be the color in the band or recording artist's name. If you chose Cream then your background must be cream. If you chose Black Eyed Peas then, you guessed it, your background must be black. Your background can be a solid of that color or it can be a tone on tone of the SAME color. And yes if you picked Golden Earring then your background must be gold, and if you picked Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band your background must be silver. But the silver and gold can be matte, they don't have to be shiny shiny.
Barry White
Black Eyed Peas
Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band
Cream
Golden Earring
Hot Chocolate
Jackson Browne
Joan Jett and the Blackhearts
Macy Gray
Plain White T’s
For Part 2
Find the band or recording artist that you picked below. Each one has a color in their name, but… some of them have the same color. If you chose one of those then you MUST use the shade of the color that is assigned to the one you chose. Use only this other color in your layout, card, or project. You may use different shades of it as long as you stick with the basic color (for instance no dark blues if your color choice is light blue, but you can use different shades of light blues), and you may use neutrals. And you may also add touches of gold or silver if you want.
Red Hot Chili Peppers - bright red/orange
P!nk - hot pink
Green Day - lime green
Deep Purple - purple
Simply Red - red
The Moody Blues - dark blue
Maroon 5 - maroon
Yellowcard - yellow
Indigo Girls - indigo or denim
Al Green - green
Pink Floyd - pink
The Blues Brothers - light blue
The Challenge
Create a layout, card, or any project using the background color your picked from Part 1, along with the second color that you picked from Part 2. It may contain only those two colors, except that it may also contain neutral colors such as black, white, gray, or tan… but no other colors. It may contain touches of gold or silver if you wish, and your photo may be full color.
I hope you have fun with this and I can't wait to see what you all create!
Open to paper, digi, hybrid, cards, crafts, planners, or anything else you are inspired to create.
You may do this up to three times, but all three must be from your original choices. No going back to pick again.
You may combine with one other challenge that allows combining and you may also add to the Prompts Challenge if there is one.
Post your submission to this thread by March 31st and a random winner of all participants will receive a $5 ACOT GC from me!
Here is my layout using Black Eyes Peas (Black background) and Simply Red (red).
