The color palette for this week's Summer of Color Challenge is yellow and candy apple red. This made me think of the heat of summer and decided to simply drip red paint over a yellow background (hoping it wouldn't read too much like blood). I was so pleased when I found this Steven Wright quote to complete my post card. Dedicated to my friend Deb Turtle and everyone else sweltering this summer. Linking up to Paint Party Friday, as well!
There's only one week left in the summer of color challenge, but I have a couple extra post cards, so I might continue to challenge on my own (using some of the combos that I voted for but which didn't get chosen). Anyone else want to play along for a few more weeks? If so, let me know in a comment and we'll figure something out.

Rinda, that's too funny!
Love it,Rinda.
Good one! Valerie
love the impact of the simple effect. I'm always happy to follow a colour challenge
Very fun and creative! <3
Heat Wave?? funny and intense .. lol.
Saludos
Oh yes I love this Rinda! Thanks for your very supportive comments on my first art journal attempts . J x
Great take on this week SoC challange. Love the funny quote!
This made me chuckle this morning. If I saw a heat wave, I'd probably give it an inappropriate hand signal at this point! Haha! Really cool piece, Rinda, and I think the red looks like a melting crayon.
Ha-love your tongue in cheek SOC piece! I'm going to try some of the other color combos too despite it ending soon. Happy PPF!
Wonderful card. I wouldn't be waving, unless I was doing it with just one finger. :)
LOVE this - totally stunning! You're very very good at this :o)xxx
No, I wouldn't wave back hehehehe I;m actually hiding from it :oP
This is a funny one Rinda, and hard colors to work with but the end results is happy.
Oh I like this color combo - I used it in one of the shower rooms next door. Makes me smile every time I walk in.
I'd wave back but then my 'hotter' is cooler than my AZ friend's 'cooler' so it is all relative!
Oh I love this Rinda. I will miss this challenge so would love a few more weeks.
Well, I'm glad I came back because apparently the comment I left earlier never posted. grrrrr blogger... What I said was I LOVE it! And yes, I'd love to continue for a few more weeks with color combos we didn't get. I've really enjoyed stretching myself and working with combinations I would have never chosen on my own.
Very clever Rinda.:) Love your piece. One more week of SOC. I've been having fun with it too. Have a great weekend. Gloria

Too funny!!!
Deb's comment cracked me up, I am not surprised she feels like that one little bit!
This made me giggle - love that quote
Cute idea, and a wonderful way to tackle the color challenge. xox
Oh just SO giggling at your sentiment for the SOC entry. Love it. BJ
That's funny. If I saw a heat wave, I'd run the opposite direction.
LOL!! I'd wave. :)
LOL, yeah I would =)
Happy PPF, have a great weekend.
xx
I love that quote so much! Great piece for this week's SOC colors!
He's such a funny comedian! Great capture! HPPF!
Very fun piece for this week's challenge! HPPF and SOC!
I love your choice of a quote, he's the best!
LOL! I love the quote!
:-D
I would love a heat wave and I would "wave" it in. LOL
Nicole/Beadwright
I would wave very gratefully!! :D
Haha, I'm in love with this card!. This is what summer is about, hot and drippy joyful!
That has made me smile! Just radiates the stuff!
Love it! After all the hot weather we've had here, I'd only wave at it if it were LEAVING!
Happy PPF!
Thanks for the chuckle this morning. Wow, that colour combination really makes it feel like the heat wave we had this past week! The red makes me think of everything melting in the bright yellow sunlight.
