Thank you all so much for your feedback about the challenges on last week's post. It seems like the majority of you would like more time to design, but you like having a new challenge every week. So how about a compromise? We are going to start a new challenge every week, but each challenge will be open for two weeks.

So, we'll start this week's challenge today, and you will have until Friday, December 28 to submit your sample. Then, we'll start another challenge next week, on Saturday, December 22 that will last two weeks until Friday, January 4.

Make sense? If not, comment below and we'll do what we can to help clarify any questions.

Now, Your challenge? Create a sample using the specific color combination below. It can be any project type, just make sure that you love it! Get creative and have some fun!

The color combination is Old Olive, More Mustard, Cherry Cobbler, Pool Party, and Soft Suede. Here’s a quick way to add that color combination to your Favorites in the MDS 2 Color Palette:

Open any project in MDS 2
Go to your Stamps in the Resource Palette on the left-hand side of your screen
Select “Choose Color,” then go to the second tab “Combos”
Click on Old Olive once (on the fifth row, in the seventh column from the left by default) and those five colors will come up, and then choose “Add All To Favorites.”
Go to the “Favorites” tab to view the added color combination.

Also, it can’t hurt your chances if other people think your sample is grand too, so make sure to blog, tweet, post, and pin it everywhere you can. Ask your friends to sign up for MyDigitalStudio.net so they can like, favorite, and comment on your sample here.

The prize? As usual, one download for free, but this time it will be from the downloads released on Tuesday, January 1!

Happy designing! And don’t forget to tag your samples with “Color Combo 2” before Friday, December 28, at noon (MT). Click here for the official rules.

Make sure to include the capitals and quotation marks in your tag. If your sample has been tagged correctly, you’ll be able to find it under Samples by clicking on the new link: Color Combo 2.
