SCS Color Challenge CC287



My first time participating in the SCS color challenges!  Woohoo.

The card above was done with Shabby Princess Festival papers, a SU digi stamp and string by Tee.

We needed to use the colors shown here so I recolored the papers using the magic wand selection tool (contiguous off) and then adjusting hue and saturation to match the color swatches here.

Now, if I need a specific color and I don't have a swatch like this, I just create one by drawing in a basic shape and filling it with the desired colors.



Once the color matches, you note your adjustments on the Hue/Saturation screen and you'll be able to duplicate the change throughout your paper stash.

You can also save your adjustment as a preset, but I don't bother if I only have a few of them to do.  For this design, I recolored three sheets of dsp, so it was just as easy to type in the settings each time.
